The series, tentatively titled Wasted, will follow the story of a junior doctor and the ancestral legacy that looms over today\u2019s generation of Muslim immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>Razia said: \u201cThe show lifts the lid on the Muslim women that society refuses to acknowledge and uncovers a very personal and specific experience that we have yet to see on screen. The series will contend with existing cultural and religious attitudes alongside the general expectations of womanhood. As a British Pakistani girl growing up in London, my experience bears little resemblance to what I\u2019ve seen depicted on British television.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Morwenna Gordon, executive producer at Expectation Entertainment, added:\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be working with Ambreen on this project\u2014she\u2019s a huge talent, on-screen and off, and infectiously passionate about bringing to life the lives of British Muslim women who have yet to be celebrated on TV. We are so excited to be on the journey with her.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Actor and writer Ambreen Razia (Ted Lasso, The Curse) has secured a development deal with Expectation Entertainment (In My Skin, Alma\u2019s Not Normal) to write an original comedy-drama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":18457,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[6417,6418],"class_list":["post-18456","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-ambreen-razia","tag-expectation-entertainment","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
