Sanjeev Bhaskar, Kulvinder Ghir, Meera Syal and Nina Wadia reunite for a one-off special of the ground-breaking sketch show. The all-new material features favourite characters from the original series, including how you can tell Sherlock Holmes comes from India, some very competitive grandmothers, and a surprisingly hi-tech use for an aubergine. Plus some unusually hard-hitting legal advice, a very scary nanny, and the heart-breaking denouement of the black and white movie classic Madrasablanca.

Programme from 2018 marking 20 years since Goodness Gracious Me launched British Asian comedy onto mainstream TV. To celebrate the impact the series had on British comedy and culture, the show's stars look back at how it all began and how they created some of the best-loved comedy sketches and characters. From Indian Dad and Mr Cheque Please to the agenda-setting, opening episode classic Going for an English - 'What's the blandest thing on the menu?' - GGM held up a mirror to contemporary British society and appealed to audiences from all cultural backgrounds. The cast and creators come up with their top ten sketches or characters, and the public chooses its favourite Goodness Gracious Me moment of all - revealed at the end of this one-off special.
