I've often said the EXACT same things, my friend!! Just as in his "Out of England" live show, when he acted out Hitler's reaction to Nietzsche being appalled by his mass extermination of the Jews, the way that he uncomfortably looked at the ground & pretended to be focussed upon something that he was doing with his foot, accompanied by his attempt at casually saying "What?" (more like "Wo'?") the same way that your average brainless teenager or "mong" would say it! GOLD!! The exact same can be said of the often subtle (but equally as important & incredible) quirks & mannerisms that made his portrayal of David Brent so incredible in "The Office" & while I think that Steve Carell is a lovely & funny guy, IMO he didn't even come close to making his version remotely as funny in the US version of the show. Ricky may be extremely intelligent, naturally hilarious & very charismatic but his acting ability is often very underrated by many people, although he has played a wide variety of characters so well in such TV series as "The Office", "Extras", "Derek" (my personal favourite) & "After Life", as well as numerous movie roles, including the phenomenal "Night At The Museum" trilogy, with the likes of such quality actors as Ben Stiller, Owen Stiller & Robin Williams (RIP).

I can never get tired of him 😂

ricky does a good impression of an elephant swimming

That camerawork during the elephant swimming story. Genius

spider and elephant were the best lol

"Don't Cry" he says to the Elephant. Brilliant the way he acts it out. He was a great actor in The Office, Extras, brilliant as Derek, he played a small part in Cemetery Junction which he and Stephen Merchant had written. It's a a good story, set in 1973.

I need a Mammalian documentary with Ricky Gervais commentary.

I know nobody cares but the balding spider fact refers to the fact that tarantulas can kick the hair off of their abdomen in defense (the hairs sting eyes and can cause asthmatic attacks). A person rubbing the abdomen can do the same as the spiders kicking legs and the spider will never grow the hair back leaving bald patches. My Chilean Rosehair has a couple.
