Does race ever make you feel awkward? Julia Sutherland introduces an international range of comedians, each with their own perspective on race, religion and culture in today's society. Fresh from the stage, Julia talks to some of the comedians to find out the reality behind their stories.

In this episode Tommy Tiernan delivers some of the most challenging material of his career. After being the victim of a tabloid sting, Tommy was hounded internationally for comments taken out of context. He now responds with an excellent routine, before explaining his motives behind it. Jamali Maddix looks at the divides in the UK and Scotland, coming from a mixed race background and not fitting into either of his parent's cultural heritage. Australian comedian Ro Campbell shares how he immigrated to Scotland whilst underestimating quite how remote the Shetland Islands are, whilst Sindu Vee plays the system in an attempt to use overbearing political correctness to her advantage.
