Ricky Gervais reveals next project

Posted on 2007-12-22 by Tony

Ricky Gervais has unveiled his next project - a film set before the "sexual revolution".

The Office star, who has also just finished filming a starring role in the Hollywood supernatural comedy Ghost Town, said: "I got back and me and Steve (Merchant) have just had our first meeting ... and we've decided what to do next which is going to be a film."

Gervais, 46, told Radio 5 Live: "We're going to do a film next. It's about a group of 20-somethings in 1970 in a small town where the sexual revolution didn't hit and they're going to get married and live next door to their mum."

The comedian continued: "It's (about) whether they do or whether they escape. We'll probably film that in 2009 for release in 2010. So, a long time to wait."

The comedy star's last episode of Extras is being broadcast this Christmas. Gervais has also just played a supporting role in blockbuster Night At The Museum.

Gervais Lines Appear in latest Dictionary

Posted on 2007-09-20 by Tony
Brent

THE words of Ricky Gervais, the Simpsons and the Daily Record feature in the new Shorter Oxford English Dictionary. Gervais, who starred as David Brent in the BBC hit comedy The Office, appears twice. The line from The Office "Jennifer is talking of either downsizing Swindon branch or this branch" is used to explain "downsize". The show also brings new meaning to the word "persuasion" in the phrase: "I was surprised (pleasantly I might add) to see you are of the female persuasion."

The Simpsons are used to explain the US slang word "skinny", meaning information, with the line: "I'm here today to give you the skinny on shoplifting." The Record appears for our use of the word "bouncebackability". The dictionary describes this as "the capacity to recover quickly from a setback". A quote from a Record sports report is used to illustrate the word: "We then showed some true bouncebackability when we equalised." The sixth edition of the dictionary, published today, contains more than 500,000 definitions, including 1300 new ones. The latest additions are dominated by words connected with scientific and environmental change, and the internet.

Expressions such as "Carbon emissions", "Chelsea tractor" and "e-bomb" have been added since the last edition in 2002.

Ricky Gervais: My Career Is Not In Jeopardy

British funnyman Ricky Gervais has dismissed reports his career is in jeopardy after he was allegedly booed offstage at the Concert for Diana.

The Office star took to the stage for a stand-up comedy segment at the memorial gig for late British royal Diana, Princess of Wales, at London's Wembley stadium on 1 July (07), and reports later surfaced claiming Gervais had been heckled by the audience for a poor performance.

But the comedian insists the journalist got it all wrong and his career is more successful than ever before.

He tells British radio station Heart FM, "After the Diana concert there was one guy - who works for a tabloid - and he wrote that the crowd booed… they didn't boo, they loved it.

"People love it when something goes wrong and I was standing there and they demanded I do 'the robot dance' and it was funny.

"But this guy wrote, 'He's rubbish, everything he's ever done is rubbish and it's all over for him.' "That week I got nominated for four Emmy Awards, sold 100,000 Dvds of Extras and signed up for two Hollywood movies. So bring on the backlash… I want him writing about me every day."
