EXTRAS (BBC2, 9pm)
HAS the Ricky Gervais backlash begun?
Just a short while ago, the Reading-born star could do no wrong. Awards were being given to him willy nilly, and everything he touched seemed to turn to gold. After The Office became a massive success, some ‘experts’ said his follow-up, Extras, would be a disaster, and yet the first series went down a treat.
However, various critics are now claiming its second run isn’t funny, and that nobody can identify with Andy Millman since he became a successful sitcom star. Thankfully, viewers have taken absolutely no notice of what’s been said about the show and are still faithfully tuning in for what has become must-see TV.
So far, we’ve seen the likes of Orlando Bloom, Keith Chegwin, David Bowie, Daniel Radcliffe and Diana Rigg poke fun at themselves. Now it’s the turn of the usually oh-so-earnest Chris Martin to do the same. Here, the Coldplay frontman and husband of Gwyneth Paltrow announces he wants to appear in Andy’s programme, while the man himself prepares for his first night at the Baftas.
