that was funny!!!!

"have you ever driven a real taxi?"

I really enjoyed that one, and the pen, in fact all of last nights.

thought it was a quality end to the series, catching the 2 lads wanking withing about 3 minutes of each other, brilliant

Can't remember it word for word but loved that:

"Right, you'll love this anecdote, Richard E Grant loves it and he doesn't even drink. I was in my trailer for GBH and Alan Bleasdale walks in"

"Never heard of him"

"Fuck Off"

Brilliant!

I thought last night's episode was awful.

Didn't want a 3rd series, but after last night I think he needs to rescue it!

Eh?? Last nights & Cheggars were absoulutely hilarious!

best scene of the series:

for me, has to be the Keith Chegwin "I buried my sister" scene

followed closely by Darren bringing the andy millman doll into the BAFTAs

Last night was absolute class! Robert Lindsay was great and the pen section was superb... "were you having a wank?"

I'm in utter disbelief at how disappointing last night's finale was. I really thought that it would go out with a bang.

Apart from the shock of seeing de Niro in it, I'd agree. But then that's the way it will go I think; bigger and bigger stars featuring, irrespective of whether they actually are relevant or advance the story at all.

I spent the whole of the De Niro scene trying to work out if in fact he actually appeared in it or whether they had just cleverly taken footage from one of his many press junkets. And then obviously Darren Lamb passes him the pen but I'm still not 100% convinced. Watch it again on Sunday folks and see if you can see what I mean.

Yeah I was thinking that it looked like some interview setting I'd seen before.

Actually thinking about it this probably is the end for Extras. Given that it's semi autobiographical and in real life Gervais has just filmed a part in a film with De Niro then I guess it's at a natural end. I certainly think it will be a long wait if there is going to be more.

The first tv episode was the Stiller one - then they rearranged the order on the DVD - as they felt it gave a better impression of the characters in the Ross Kemp episode. apparently.

Stiller was definately in the first episode aired on TV. Never noticed who was first on the DVD.

Can't find that.I expect I'm being even more myopic than usual.

I just did a search in I Tunes to see if it was still there ....the extras podcast was the first option in the returned list

however ... they don't seem to be giving away the first episode any more

they just have the additional podcasts

tomred · « **Reply #224 on:** May 22, 2007, 02:01:35 pm »

Extras just arrived in Japan. It has that same feeling of embarrassment, but in a different way, as the Office and the podcasts. Very gnick.

Loved Kate Winslet in it too.

He's upset Kelvin MacKenzie, who called for him to be banned from TV. There's a badge of honour if ever I heard one...
