Patrick Monahan – I\u2019m not a terrorist, I\u2019m Freddie Mercury<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since coming to England from Iran in 1980, if I had a \u00a31 for every time someone called me a terrorist, I\u2019d have enough money to run my own terrorist organisation.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve more in common with Freddie Mercury than Hezbollah.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had visas turned down, extra checks & restricted access.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve 60mins to prove I\u2019m not a terrorist.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis kind of funny is an irresistible force\u201d 4* Scotsman (Kate Copstick)<\/p>\n

\u201chas his audiences in stitches from the off.\u201d 4.5* One4Review<\/p>\n

\u201cPatrick Monahan is clever, very funny and hugely likeable\u201d 5* Scottish Field<\/p>\n

Age guidance: 16+<\/p>\n
