1 Alia's College
10/4/13
Mr Khan's day off from being a 'busy' community leader is interrupted when Alia fails her exams, promting Mrs. Khan to lay down the law. She tells Mr. Khan to sign her up at the local Muslim Academy, but when he finds out how much it costs, Khan decides there's a better option. Meanwhile Shazia has invited Debbie, her best friend and boss, round for dinner with the intention of asking her to be chief bridesmaid at her wedding. But she hasn't counted on her Dad inadvertently inviting an extra guest.
2 Naani's Day Out
10/11/13
Mr Khan is off to meet the mosque manager whom he expects will finally get him onto the mosque committee. Naani, Mr. Khan's mother-in-law, is visiting from Pakistan. Mrs. Khan is worried because she has been doing nothing except stare into space all day. She tells Mr. Khan that until Naani perks up a bit, she'll be staying with them indefinitely! Khan hurries to the mosque to try and enroll Naani on to a course activity and prove to Mrs. Khan that Naani can go home but when that fails Mr. Khan puts plan B in to action...
3 Amjad's Health Check
10/18/13
Mr Khan wants to go to the mosque to meet the local MP; the MP is visiting to endorse the mosque's 'mobile men's health check' unit. Khan needs to take a 'guinea pig' - future son-in-law Amjad fits the bill perfectly. Mrs Khan and the girls are off to buy baby clothes for a friend's new baby. Mrs Khan loves babies, and is looking forward very much to Amjad and Shazia providing her with lots and lots of them in the very near future. Amjad's health check doesn't quite go to plan as Mr Khan causes him to attend the doctors for real, potentially creating terrible consequences for the family.
4 Fasting
10/25/13
The Imam at the mosque calls a special fast and Mr Khan uses it to compete with Dave, the mosque manager. Alia has a foreign exchange student staying, and Shazia meanwhile has announced she's been offered a great job opportunity in India, which will mean more money and the chance to put down a deposit on a new flat. However, being away for 12 months will put her engagement to Amjad in jeopardy. Mrs Khan decides the only way to save their relationship is to pay the flat deposit for them, and she sends Mr Khan to the building society to secure the all-important loan.
5 Shazia's Gym
11/1/13
Shazia and Amjad are going up in the world; they've managed to get a trial day at an exclusive gym. Mrs Khan is keen to go along to the bums and tums class but Mr Khan is less impressed. He's more interested in contacting a famous Pakistani cricketer to operate this years's Eid tombola at the Mosque. He uses his new found hobby - the internet- to try and track him down. Mr Khan thinks he's found a cricketer, and arranges to meet him at the mosque, but the person who shows up is not who he expects, creating a potentially embarrassing situation for the Mosque and The Khans.
6 The Makeover
11/8/13
Mrs Khan is having a makeover; her husband's not impressed. He only has eyes for the promotional video Dave is making to promote the mosque. Mr Khan thinks he's perfect to star in it. Dave has other ideas, and wanting to promote a more modern image of mosque goers, he chooses Sajid, an attractive, 'metrosexual' friend of the Khan family. Khan goes to extreme lengths to prove that he's modern and metrosexual too. However, Sajid is home alone with Mrs Khan, and the reason for her make-over becomes clear. He rushes home to confront the pair, but is not prepared for what he discovers.

About this show

Citizen Khan follows the trials and tribulations of loud-mouthed, tight-fisted, self-appointed community leader Mr Khan, his long suffering family and not forgetting Mr Khan's love-hate relationship with the Mosque Manager and white Muslim convert, Dave.

It's very poorly written and the actors are equally bad. It's just over exaggerated unoriginal stereotypes. I don't like this kind of show where they make it too obvious when you should laugh. It's a shame because it had potential. Love the idea, hate the execution.

I can't believe people will go that far and go against Islam just to earn some extra money, none of the characters are Muslims so why do this and embarrass yourself in front of Muslim people.

This show is ok, its not as funny as it could be though. The show is basically a parody of any none white immigrant family living in the UK for several decades, kinda reminds me of Desmond's. People complain but its not even as disrespectful as Father Ted.
