So yeah apparantly they both had a radio show on this local radio, Xfm. You can listen to all the programmes online from the past years ... that's about 30 editions or something like that.

 

If you're a fan of Ricky's stand up, and or appreciate the banter they both seemed to have in dvd extras of the Office for example, this is much of the same, but it also features Karl Pilkington (sp?) that was in the dvd extras of one of Ricky's shows...

 

Anyway all in all a good laugh.

It's a London station (though I think they've got a satellite franchise in Manchester these days).

 

I've listened to it for years mate, absolutely top class stuff on a Saturday dinnertime.

 

There may be some pre Christmas shows as well, so keep an eye on the site about those.

My favourite one was the one when Karl had the builder in the flat doing the kitchen, was in July '03 I think. Crying with laughter, pure brilliance.

 

Monkeynews is always very good for a giggle too :blink:

The added bit on the Politics DVD with Karl Pilkington is fucking hilarious.

The bloke is just unintentionally hilarious when in the hands of Ricky Gervais!

Yeah, he tries tell Gervais about how in the "olden times", they asked a man set to be executed to walk in a straight line after he had been beheaded. When told about how given an infinite amount of time, a set of monkeys could re-write a Shakespeare story due to every eventuality being typed, he came out with, "But how can a monkey remember what he's just typed, and what about when they change shifts".

 

Great watch.

His XFM stuff is about the only thing of his I've ever liked - though clips of his stand-up seemed good as well.

 

XFM is the only radio station I listen to - though it did go a bit downhill after Capital bought it.

If it wasn't for Xfm my digital radio would be in the bin. It's a shocking format other than that.
