How did Gervais get the Comedy Lab gig? Page 2

This Life was good!

I'm not sure how many comedy contacts she would have had through that. But I suppose it's possible.

Well, a contact can be a friend of a friend. That's life! No, this life!

Cant say - may need to call it in one day!

Oooo, dramatic! *strokes chin thoughtfully*

I'm related to a pretty successful actor - well, he was successful, when he was alive. You probably won't recognise his name, but here's his imdb.com info: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0612384/

Not really - i'm just hoping that one day i am introduced to someone who knows them and i can chuck it in as an ice breaker....so i'm saving it till then :D

"Pete, this is Bob from the BBC - he's just finished working on a project with Orlando Bloom"

"Hi, How is Orlando, we're cousins dont you know"

Something like that :D (although this person is a bit bigger than Orlando...i'm not sure knowing Mr Bloom would do you much good!)

If he has worked with Frankie Howerd, then he is automatically a leg-end in my book.

Yeah, that's quite a list of credits!

Really? I sometimes go days without speaking to my kids! Havent spoken to my brother in months and he lives 5 mins away!

Yeah, but people don't think in such a straight, linear manner until challenged over it, do they?

Aaaanyhoooo.
