Comedian and writer David Baddiel is to front a part polemic, part personal documentary for Channel 4 that explores why, in his opinion, anti-Semitism is often seen as a lesser form of racism. 

At a time ​when important and urgent discussions are taking place ​about representation and inclusion regarding race, David Baddiel: Jews Don’t Count will argue that Jews appear to have been neglected from the conversation and in particular by those who consider themselves progressive. 

Comedians including David Baddiel, Lolly Adefope and Nish Kumar have appeared in an NHS England video encouraging people to take the Covid vaccine.

In a send up of those sincere, sensible videos by celebrities, the comics give their own reasons for taking the vaccine.

"I want to go to the cinema with my dad", says Nish Kumar.

"I want to hug my grandmother," says Jason Forbes.

"I want to hug my mum," says Lolly Adefope.
