The "Uh-oh! Warning! Brent's found a guitar!" bit.. totally killed me

Gervais is a master of creating awkward situations which just make you want to cringe, you forget that it's even acted.

Last time I saw that rapper he was selling Jay and Neil spliff puff in a rock club.

That look to camera at 6:26 speaks a thousand words. Ricky is an absolute legend....

[Cooley]

Despite Gervais' usual humor, it's actually quite heartbreaking to discover that the blind date didn't work out.

[kianclarke]

the attention to detail is just amazing. The fact that he walks into the studio first then the handshakes at 4:41 are just so 
awkwardly brilliant

[filmmekker]

Funny but the finale of The Office (British version) was so perfect and left David on a potentially happy note that I hate to be reminded of what probably happened to him.

'''Whaddya want? Rum and haha. That bit cracked me up.

[DasGrif]

"This can be like Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder. Better because you can see what you're doing".

[MultiGraham]

Absolute genius. The dramatic pauses and the way he labors points are the best thing about it. Rum & Coke and Red Stripe/Lilt had me in stitches.

I was born into the music industry - my dad worked at Our Price.

You have to watch it over and over to pick up everything.

[petermay]

The funniest use of the word 'Lilt' in history

[nobodiesband]

The 'what /has/ happened?' around 1:50 feels so genuinely sad. Inspired bit of acting

[frasergray]

Rum & coke? Red Stripe? OJ comin' up baby

[Redondo]

Much like Coogan with Alan. It's great to see Ricky doing other stuff but it's amazing to see just how perfect and 'at home' he looks playing Brent, it's like he was put on the planet to do it.

[futurez]

"Lilt" I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a single one word line before.

[pawelos]

when he shakes hands in a studio It's so subtle, but so hilarious. That's genius.

[blixne]

"she's the serpent, who guards the gates of hell, " LOL!

[TopDog]

The "steel drums?" -"YEEEP. YEP" kills me every time. Such amazing delivery.

“Biddly bong?!”

**Nods**

Never ever forget that Brent fused flashdance and mc hammer!
