most of the jokes are from his Fame show or earlier, but there are funny new bits in this- the fact that hes watching himself on the plane tv n laughing his head off is hilarious and how he then goes onto talk to bowie about it was great :) and the fact that he sleeps with all his trophies is brilliant :)
Massive Gervais fan and his commitment to playing the over the top cocky and self-centred star i find constantly funny - particularly when people who dont get it think that that is really the way he is. Only criticism is he recycles his material - the bit about the hosepipe ban has appeared in pretty much everything he has done. Considering how savvy he is with modern media he should be more aware that fans have access to everything he does almost instantly. Tho he may know and just not care!
Bless. Same lines about Curtis asking him for face time and he still goes every time! I liked the quip about crap Curtis films, which is funny from the Cemetary Junction guy. christ that was bad. Sorry? Was that too explicit?
Oi! Curtis glad you are you are not still blowing up children to get us all aware of stuff!
BTW I assiduosly avoid giving to charidees ( look it up ) that don't have actors in their promotional sponsorship.
@WagonManBand look what up? i sincerely hope you're not referring to the word "charidees" because no such word exists. why are people spelling it that way? is that a British thing? CHARITY. CHARITIES.
Ricky Gervais is a funny man, but seriously, how many times is he going to use that 'friend of my grandad's" gag? I heard him use that on the 11 o'clock show back in 1999!
I like how, even in Ricky's solo stuff, it's Steve holding the camera. I think some of the extras on his stand-up DVDs were filmed by Steve. You could hear his Wurzel-like voice in some of those.
@retread01 He's a completely fabricated character in these sketches. He's pretending to be ultra-arrogant when really he isn't, he manages to flaunt how successful he is in everything he's in and get away with it because he does it in such a funny way. That's the genius.
He is very funny, only thing that is sort of weird is that his "Egotistical for etc etc." thing is a 24/7 routine, almost makes you wonder if he ever pops out of it. At least, I haven't seen him any other way, and I'm definitely no expert. Still, I think he is very funny, and enjoy watching his videos!
@retread01 thats what makes it funny. he's being egotistical for shti's and giggles and it obviously does work for him if he's that successful and everyone loves him
Ricky should really do some remake of Jake Haley's classic screwball comedy. They look so similar and have the same doe-eyed innocent boyish looks. Ricky can even play Haley if they ever made a movie about his life.
hehehe, i can't believe this is Actually red nose day, and he Actually goes to New York, and the producers have the shame enough to put this through lool
I burst out laughing when he summed up Comic Relief as Robbie Williams on some sketch show, especially as one of the related videos here shows Robbie Williams in a stupid wig in a Little Britain sketch.
He needs to stop doing that arrogant character in all interviews. It wasn't funny the first time, and he's does it all the time. Merchant is the funnier just to add
It looks real, right? Like Ricky and him have just been chatting, and Ricky's said something to make him piss himself laughing. It would be great to hear their conversation.
