It was poo, Gervais with Hitler hair. Boring and unrealistic.

I am a Gervais fan as well, it flopped ! 😳

I got fed up of Gervais years ago, despite being a hardcore fan originally.
He stopped being funny about the time he realised he was funny.

No idea what he was trying to achieve with this. An idiot abroad was contrived but with hillarious moments. Lifes too short was generally bad, but I guess because it was about a self deprecating midget it did have some merit and originality.

But this?? I really don't get it.

Never found him funny.

That whiney, creepy little laugh he does when he thinks he's being funny just makes me pity him.

If there is a hell, it will involve me being strapped to a chair watching endless reruns of Jonathan Ross interview Ricky (Ricky? What's wrong with Dick?, not man enough to carry it off?) Gervais.

I am proud of the fact that humour is subjective, which allows me to just look perplexed and wonder how he ever became famous

Same here but can't say why, just watched it at lunch though so maybe the answer will come to me

I thought it was a bad choice of subject, not funny for me.

I thought the subject choice was good, nursing homes are pretty much unseen or ignored in society never mind mainstream tv so was interesting to see something that brings them to people's attention. Of course that could be completely incidental to what was intended 😉

Didn't give it the oxygen of my viewing presence.

Nobody called derek should be anything other than revered...

Gervais should be more correctly forenamed Dick.
