Details Episode 2 Aired Jun 21, 2022 By the 1970s, many South Asian families had realized that running one's own business was the best way to get ahead in Britain, so the Sharmas are now the proud owners of a shop. Details Episode 3 Aired Jun 22, 2022 This time it's the 1980s and '90s, decades in which the hard work of South Asian families was beginning to pay off, with success reflected in everything from the huge stereo to the embossed gold wallpaper in their living room. Details Episode 4 Aired Jun 23, 2022 Guided by BBC Asian Network's Noreen Khan and historian Yasmin Khan, the Sharma family reflects on the time-travelling journey through British Asian history and discovers how things have changed in the 21st century.
