16th January - Golden Globes 2012

ricky gervais golden globes 2012 Ricky returned to host the Golden Globes for a third consecutive year last night. Following the controversy of last year Gervais seemed to pull the reigns on his legendary acerbic wit. This year the aim of his harshest jibes was aimed less at Hollywood actors and more towards NBC, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and Kim Kardashian. He also heaped praise on shows such as Homeland, Boardwalk Empire and the film Bridesmaids. Check out his opening monologue below before it gets deleted. (Deleted)

Karl makes a welcome return to our screens on Friday 23rd September in Sky One's 'An Idiot Abroad 2: The Bucket List'. It’s the follow up to the hugely successful first series where Karl visited the seven wonders of the world. This time Karl will be going through the 'things to do before you die list'. Unfortunately for the round headed Manc the list has been compiled by Ricky and Steve so luckily for us he'll hate every minute. The first episode see's Karl stuck on a desert island with not even a calculator for company.

Ricky Gervais is delighted to have landed a cameo role in the hugely successful animated comedy ‘Family Guy’. Gervais said: "Family Guy is my favourite show at the moment.

Ricky is a huge fan of Family Guy creator Seth McFarlane saying "It was such a joy working with the team and I really like the way my character looks too."

Little is known about the episode that Ricky will be appearing in except that he will be playing a dolphin who moves into the fictional town of Quahog where the cartoon takes place. Family Guy is shown on the Fox Network in the US and BBC3 here in the UK.

ricky gervais, steve merchant and karl pilkington podcast I first heard about the Ricky Gervais Show at the end of 2005 when they released 12 free podcasts on the Guardian Unlimited website. I remember laughing out loud every time this Pilkington guy opened his mouth. Pretty soon I was addicted and couldn’t wait till every Tuesday when the next one would be available for download.

When the series was finished I felt I needed more and couldn’t believe my luck when I found out that Ricky and the gang had been doing these shows for years on a local London radio station. In early 2008 I decided to create this website. I hope you enjoy it.
