Ricky Gervais is considered by many to be one of the greatest comedians of this generation.
He holds the Guinness World Record for the most downloaded podcast and is the creator and star of two critically acclaimed series - The Office and Extras.
His brand of cringe humour seems to resonate with people; Gervais is an expert at poking fun at the socially awkward situations people get themselves into.
Gervais’ latest film, The Invention of Lying, sees the comedian produce, direct, write and star in the film.
The Invention of Lying is a romantic-comedy set in an unsentimental world where no one lies, until one day Gervais’ character tells a fib.
He then teaches the people around him to lie, causing the once truthful society to implode with deceit.
