Ricky Gervais
A few years back, when The Office was first airing on TV I think and Ricky Gervais was taking his first steps towards global fame, I was in the De Hems pub (aka 'the Dutch pub') off Shaftesbury Avenue. I bought the now wife a drink, and turning round towards the bar, saw the man himself there (he was still doing Xfm at the time, which is nearby).

"Excuse me, mate", I said.

Ricky turned around expectantly, presumably anticipating the "Aren't you...?" question.

"Can I just reach across and get my pint? Cheers".

I got a definite glower off him for that :o)

he's such a dick
the only good thing he's done is convincing the general public that the david brent character is an act.

the stupid short piss-ant

all fairness, his stand-up is bloody excellent; but I know what you mean.

"Are you...

*smug* "Yeeeeeeees."

"Found your ID in the car park - Radio Norwich?"

Gervais is my wife's mother's niece's husband's brother.

Which makes him FAM-LEEEE

I stole one of his cigars at a wedding

In other words
Your wife's cousin's brother-in-law?

Is that right? Sorry, I've just taken five minutes out of editing some stuff to visit B3ta, and it's hard to break out of work mode...

Aye.
'Tis the relation.

I dunno, I've always found him quite amuserating.

He is so unfunny it's an art form and the Office makes my skin crawl. So there.
