Life's Too Short on TV last night - hilarious !

[sbakoola]

I think Ricky Gervais is ok and he doesn't funny stuff sometimes but this was great !

Warick Davis was excellent, it got a bit dark when Liam Neeson came in that might get complaints though.

Warick Davis looks to be a great guy can really take the mickey out himself, the sort out guy you'd like have a laugh with down the pub over a pint (or half a pint !).

Ziggy says you must try harder

That was the point

Caught the last 5 mins and it looked just like any other show featuring Gervais, where he basically plays himself.

I don't think he's changed or improved since his days on The 11 O'Clock Show, which I only really watched for the lovely Daisy Donovan.

I'm pretty sure she was the one that Thaila Zucchi has based herself on when appearing in similar satirical shows. They both come across as if they'd be up for absolutely anything.

As for Gervais, almost wish he'd got kicked off the TV for his use of the word 'mong' recently.

Him and Frankie Boyle seem to be competing for the most obnoxious comedian, which is getting a bit .

Didn't see it but the missus recorded it. Some articles in the usual papers about stereotyping dwarfs but realistically how could they play many other roles? Think even "stereotyping", when there is not actually anything adverse in the stereotype, is positive. That bloke in Game of Thrones was brill.

Yep. One of the best characters in the show.

Yep. One of the best characters in the show.

Oh yes, that was actor Peter Dinklage, small but a stunningly good actor in Game of Thrones, also see him in movie (where he is the lead) 'The Station Agent' ... a powerful drama indie film.

and God do I love Game of Thrones .. its a 5/5 tv series ... is the BBC too chicken to pick it up due to the violence and sex ?

Peter Kay also has an obsession with dwarves, feels a bit wrong to me.

[d000hg]

Heh, liked it. Like an English take on Curb.

Was it me, or was everyone pretending to BE Gervais? The improv, it was like 3 of him in a room at the same time!

I once went out with a dwarf girl. We made a funny couple but in the bedroom what an ego boost.

One and a half hands. Brilliant.
