Ricky Gervais hosting the Golden Globes - his initial monologue - sorry but it wasn't very good was it? I love Ricky, not quite sure how he's hailed as a visionary genius to be honest but I love him.
One of the reasons is his unfailing ability to remain 'a fat bloke from Reading' in all that he does. Also the fact that he eschews advertising work, only did two series of the Office and is an all round credible artiste. Is anyone else ever so slightly worried that he's started to believe his own press?
He's always been boastful and its part of his charm but I find this quite embarrassing, my nine year old could read from the auto-cue more naturally and the jokes are the worst kind of vicious (obvious and cheap) It's a testament to the Ricky Gervais Brand that I feel churlish criticising him and lord knows I would find it daunting speaking to that crowd but then I'm not Ricky Gervais!
