Ricky Gervais: Science

Filmed at London's Hammersmith HMV Apollo following a sell-out tour, this is the fourth live smash hit stand-up show from Ricky Gervais. Never afraid to challenge comedy boundaries, Ricky is renowned for his acerbic observational humour and cutting delivery. The stage set is Frankenstein's laboratory, and Ricky is quite at home delivering thought-provoking rants and tongue-in-cheek political incorrectness about subjects as diverse as religion, racism and obesity.
