Lyt til Black in Britain

Today's guest is Kiell Smith-Bynoe, a writer, actor and comedian best known for his role in BBC’s Ghosts, along with his appearances in Stath Lets Flats and Enterprice. In this episode we talk about his new show, Red Flag, airing on Channel 4 Friday 6th May, how it came to be, how the internet has shaped Kiell’s creative process and more. Show synopsis: Red Flag is a fast-paced and ridiculous sketch show created by and starring Kiell Smith-Bynoe. It reflects the modern world but not quite the way you'd imagine as Smith-Bynoe plays various characters who walk wrong and strong into chaos. Transcript available on our website.
