    Love it or hate it, a bit like Ricky Gervais. You may not like him but by **** he has some neck on him and I admire people who tread a dangerous path, here introducing Mel Gibson;

    He's just a professional wido. You get them in all walks of life. It's not bravery though, just stupidity.

    Personally, and I don't like Oor Mel, I reckon hes well within his rights to give him a quick few to the chest then coup de gras to to his fat ****ing face.

    First time I've seen that. More front than Blackpool, that Gervais lad.

    Anyone that doesn't like marmite is gayer than Kirung's ex missus.

    Anyone that likes Gervais is a raging mong.

    Gervais is funny though. Marmite just sits there taking the piss, not very wittily.

    Think he wrote quite a lot of The Office didn't he? He's a bit cringeworthy to watch, but that's part of the humour; he takes you out of your comfort zone.

    Nah, he co-wrote it, I don't mind the odd bit of cringey humour but he takes it too far + his face and laugh irritate me.

    He did do quite a good series of Aldo impressions though with his Faces of Mong thing on Twitter which made me chuckle...

    The podcasts he did with Stephen Merchant and Carl Pilkington were always good for a laugh. The three of them did a one off show on Jazz FM a few years back that was ****ing hilarious.

    I love Marmite. On toast, in a sarnie, with cheese and crackers etc.

    I've got a lot of time for Mr Gervais, not all his work hits the mark but I used to like his X-FM radio shows and his spots on the 11 O'Clock show were class. He is famous enough now that he doesn't have to work very hard and taking pot shots at Hollywood types is rather low hanging fruit. Does anyone else remember a one-off show he did where he was the boss of a company but wanted to be a David Bowie impersonator? Not long after he did The Office which was more or less the same sort of character. He even got Bowie to do a cameo in Extras. True story.

    I would also add that his version of If You Don't Know Me By Now was seriously under rated.

    The bloke can sing.
