Absolute classic, one of the best sketches of all time! (And I say that as a fan of Alan Partridge, The Office, Fawlty Towers, Blackadder etc so a lot of great sketches to choose from)...this has everything! Plus I love "Fix You", it's a great song. Chris plays the part so well. It's not merely Gervais & Merchant's writing that makes it funny, Chris plays it perfectly. It's my fave celebrity cameo of "Extras", closely followed by Dean Gaffney in Carphone Warehouse. Are we having a laugh?
I wanna say that Ricky Gervais and this show's writers are the ones responsible for any of Chris Martin's perceived humerousness and acting talent. Oh snap I just did.
I love how Extras showed us showbiz are full of asshole and hypocrite LMAO!!! Love it Rickey Gevais!!!
I couldn't stop laughing when Chris showed up and went on and on and on about Coldplay's greatest hit album. "duh deh duh doh dahhh." "Is that one of yours?" "Yer yer trouble. Dah deh duh deh dahhhh" =)))) He looked great, by the way.
This is so brilliant I'd like the world in general to recognize this sort mastery at comedy that is display in this video. Genius writing and great acting as you can see in the subtle gestures and corkyness with which Ricky Gervais welcomes Chris Martin, just superb, excellent.
It's actually not that far from reality-- I could suspend my disbelief enough to believe that Chris Martin was on a promotional tour, performing in factories and other blue collar sites around England to promote a Coldplay greatest hits album.
a few year ago the man at the shop he put wrong price on the iron bruw, all the poeples they try to buy these irun brew but the man he say `you can no buy the iron brew, you can no purchase these thing`. I dont care much for this poplar soft drink but still i think this is an outrage.
its funny on xfm steve said he hated coldplay n ricky said hed have to him him one day n he said hed tell them to his face n then they had chris in extras haha i wonder if steve told him!
@archangul Really? so that's why he has two kids and is married to one of the most beautiful women on the planet. Oh yeah, he's totally gay. You fucking dumbshit.
@chrissysexy good show - this isn't a coldplay video is it? won't catch me watching one of those, anyway don't be so sensitive...opinions are like arseholes everybody got one, just didn't find it funny. If your looking for a funny cameo from this series the David Bowie one is priceless...
@alfredinch He says "Can we get on with this? I've got to do aids and alzheimer's and land mines this afternoon and I want to get back for deal or no deal. Plus Gwyneth's making drumsticks".
@wanderer1955 Obviously the people who have taste & can appreciate sheer brilliance in songwriting & music but hey it must be horrible being tone deaf!! So were you deaf before or after listening to shit music?? PEACE BELLEND
@MrMoviemaster26 Hey Bowlmovementmaster26 are you having a laff? Is he aving a laff?? MWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! Youve certainly made ME laugh mate!!! Cheers.
@KingMingus his voice has character and is very distinctive , you could say the same about bowie or dylan or stevie nicks or steve harley or hundreds of popstars with uniquely beautiful voices, a singer can be brilliant and never be in tune thats the beauty of music.Chris martin is a properly talented musician, you hear straining and I hear emotion.
I love the Office but did not like the Brent character and enjoyed him suffering. Also I am fed up with RG and the SAME "Oh I don't expect any recognition for charity" with ironic angst routine (see Elmo and Ricky vid)
Extras was great, just don't like RG, overrated.
Also think Coldplay suck ass. Yet as someone here said it is my opinion so do not expect abuse. However, there are morons who will so I love Pete Doherty, Russell Brand & support Aston Villa. As I am different to you, abuse me.
@809Ollie Yes I do. Why the confusion. I am not making mutually exclusive statements. HE is funny but not the genius all think he is. I think Gareth was by far the best character
@guyboxerdog RG directed, wrote and starred in both! If you don't (for whatever reason) like him as an actor... maybe as a writer and director?? He has a unique sense of humor though and i guess everyone has different tastes.
Coldplay suck ass? Now i'm sorry, but i find that hard to believe!!!!!!
ricky is a genius. he is playing a guy playing who hates the fact that chris martin is on playing a guy who is surprised by chris martin there, but he still manages to let andy's opinion shine through. brilliant.
@archangul yea that's why he has millions of fans and hits -_-
