'Deliciously funny' (Guardian), Al-Habib's parents left Baghdad for the land of opportunity (southern Birmingham). But when Britain invaded Iraq, many saw him as the enemy within. A show about why Saddam Hussein would have loved Drayton Manor and - amidst a search for those pesky weapons of mass destruction – finding self-acceptance.
