Anybody hear this?
Very entertaining and it is one of the first times I've heard him open up a bit and show a bit of the real man. Quite shy and diffident at times.
Ricky Gervais on Desert Island Discs
He's always like that on the radio. He's lovely.
Most people seem to think he actually is David Brent.
I liked that story he told about his mum's funeral. 
Yeah
I think if he's on with Wossy on the TV or radio they just muck about a bit, though that's entertaining in its own way it can sometimes be annoying when you'd like to hear about things like his inspiration and how he works and writes etc
His mum's funeral story was funny and touching.
I was listening to the podcast of this tonight.
I think the first time It was out they didn't play the tunes.
Loved Lilywhite by Cat Stevens & Jimmy Webbs Galveston.
