Ricky Gervais: Fame

Ricky Gervais' third live show, Fame, is the fastest-selling comedy tour in British history. With multiple sell-out shows around Britain and nearly half a million tickets sold, the success of Fame eclipses even his previous two stand-up shows: Politics and Animals.


Writer, director, and star of The Office and Extras, progenitor of the most downloaded series of podcasts ever, and award-winning author of four volumes of Flanimals, Ricky Gervais is uniquely placed to apply his prodigious comedic talents to the world of celebrity. In this special, recorded at London's Hammersmith Apollo, Ricky delivers hilarious and insightful observations on the nature of fame, and in the process displays his talent as Britain's foremost comedian to the fullest extent yet.
