To make Ricky laugh is easy. To make him sit back in awe is hard.
He did a great job with the little pauses and hand gestures.
PVC football from woolworths...superb stuff
The Brian Cox one is spot on. Incredible
I like it when Ricky is happy because he has that great, genuine warmth that reminds me that some of the things and people that seem so troublesome can actually be laughed away.
Ricky’s laugh has got to be one of the most beautiful things on this planet 😂
Saw Jon Culshaw live on stage recently and he was truly amazing. Slipping from one person to the next with ease. Real professional

Ricky Gervais is just such a brilliant bloke
The David Brent character is genius because the little nuances allows the viewer to fill in the gaps themselves and confirm what they were already secretly thinking so it sort of amplifies the humour and makes you feel in on the joke.

Legend.
Lived in England for a couple of years and the guy I lived with would do impressions of me all day and I’d be in tears of laughter, good impressionists are amazing, I can’t even do accents never mind an impression..
Jon sounds weirder when he's being himself than when he's doing impressions. Remarkable talent though. Would've loved to see him just do a straight impression of Ricky.

The amazing thing about the impressions is that they are less about nailing the pitch of the voice and more simply the cadence, style and vocabulary. It's almost more of a cerebral impression than vocal.
He probably should have started with: "Hello, and welcome at the Golden Globes"
00:48 Ricky's face of pure joy at this impression
His Brian Cox impression is helped by the fact that Jon Culshaw is an avid amateur astronomer.
