Tandoori Nights is a television sitcom that was broadcast on Channel 4 between 4 July 1985 and 13 November 1987.
It is the story of two rival restaurants in London, and starred Saeed Jaffrey, Tariq Yunus, Rita Wolf and Zohra Sehgal.
[2] Tandoori Nights traded on some pre-existing Asian stereotypes: an Indian restaurant setting; a conniving businessman (Jimmy Sharma, played by Saeed Jaffrey) who views dating white women as 'social climbing'; a rebellious daughter (played by Rita Wolf); and a bumbling servant-fool (Alaudin, played by Tariq Yunus).
[3] Jimmy Sharma is the owner of Jewel in the Crown, a Tandoori restaurant in Ealing, west London.
