Extras - Christmas Special - Part 2

Comments

Look at you having a dig at someone's boobs ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm not gonna say anything further incase I get cancelled or sound weird as fuck. Just be kind ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Josh sloan

Yeah I'm gutted it's over and I nearly cried too ๐Ÿ˜… I don't understand your fascination with karl tbh although I've never seen an idiot abroad

Josh sloan

They've really made me hate Andy, why didn't he offer Maggie a chance for them to be roommates at his big fancy place ๐Ÿคท

Joshyboiiiiii

Hope all is well ๐Ÿ™

Feathers McGraw

Thank you! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸปI have no idea what I am doing for my birthday. All I know is that for several reasons this one is going to hit particularly hard ๐Ÿ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

This was my pleasure! I loved it! Also, 30:53 was perfect casting! Haha, she was full of false pride/fame. Lol!! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Mandy Cane Lane

Well that was such a lovely ending, and so sweet to see our oh so stoic Mandy almost burst the banks. We can confirm, she is human. Much love and best wishes, and a merry birthday to you and your cats! and the people too i suppose, ๐Ÿค” you 30 soon? You taking a birthday break? Or doing a birthday special or somting?

Feathers McGraw

Hi Mandy, 5:30 Whyโ€™d they show the celebrity brother footage at the start? Itโ€™s the โ€œHow we got hereโ€ TV trope, open the story in the middle or near the end, and most the episode will be spent showing how the character got there. Itโ€™ll probably be him at his lowest point, just before he turns it around and the story wraps itself up wonderfully, just predicting this bit, Iโ€™ve only got up to this point right now. 12:05 one of Barryโ€™s EastEnders acting colleagues working at carphone warehouse ๐Ÿคฃ 14:48 I guess the joke is Dr Who isnโ€™t Shakespeare, itโ€™s beloved by fans, family entertainment, but isnโ€™t the best platform to show off your acting chops. 30:53 Mandy: โ€œSheโ€™s got nothinโ€™โ€ โ€ฆ โ€œIโ€™m just sayinโ€™โ€โ€ฆ bad casting, right? ๐Ÿ˜† 35:30 I hear everythingโ€™s better with company, even sitting bare-bottomed on a cake ๐Ÿคฃ and you donโ€™t care to explain for your Extras viewers? Haha, I guess theyโ€™ll just have to catch up with 6 seasons of Taskmaster ๐Ÿ˜„ 37:45 This depiction of Big Brother was so real, yet doesnโ€™t even begin to scratch the surface. The non-celeb version went on for over 90 days, earlier seasons broadcast footage 24/7 - uhh I remember just tuning into this until the early hours. Psychologists control the narrative, and tasks were engineered to probe peopleโ€™s character flaws. Big Brother was at its peak here when this was made. 39:02 โ€œWould you come to my Hello! wedding?โ€ Hello! magazine? Itโ€™s a celebrity gossip magazine in the UK, and I think sheโ€™s saying Hello! Will splash out on a celeb wedding, for the publicity, and exposure in their magazine. 52:35 A couple of Christmas trees and I heard a few jingle bell sound overs too, donโ€™t forget Andyโ€™s doll brought out for the Christmas market ๐Ÿ˜† Thank you thank you thank you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿค—

This is actually more obvious and audible in the outtakes from this scene.

Jeffrey44

Hahahahhaa! That is hilarious!

Mandy Cane Lane

You are excused Mr 44 ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Simon!! And really?? He was in 2 scenes? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

Mandy Cane Lane

He so did! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

I think you might be right. Extraordinary!

Jeffrey44

There's no Stephen unfortunately this is where they 'split' You do get a lot of Karl in Derek tough, so it's not all bad :)

Liam Tulley

Barely audible but I think Ricky mutters: "look at his round little...head" after Karl showed no interest in getting an autograph from him. It's around 10:30. Just before the scene cuts away.

swamp blues

Excuse me, In one scene when Maggie has a cleaning job, she is using a Henry vacuum cleaner. I thought I should mention it because I know you have recently become a fan of this particular household appliance.

Jeffrey44

Great reaction Mandy, I cracked up when you got mixed up and called celebrity Big Brother Celebrity Death Match, what a show that would be!! I agree with you about Ashley Jensen (Maggie) She's a beautiful lady and she's also in 'Afterlife' which was 3 seasons long and also written and starring Ricky, what a show that is, it will tear your heart out one minute and have you rolling with laughter the next, and you obviously did'nt notice, but in part one, Karl was stood outside The Ivy but he had his back to us, I was willing you to see him, but was so happy when you did in part two as your pure joy was brilliant!....Thanks for the reaction, take care and all the best to you!

Simon Cross

Karl stole the show hehe

AWR93

Amazing end to an amazing show, thank you Mandy! And Steve completely steals every scene in my opinion. ๐Ÿ˜† Can't wait to see your reactions to the outtakes, Finding Leo, and Karl's behind the scenes bit!

Dextrous (Lewis)

Ohh! I forget about the "finding Leo" one. Thank you!

Mandy Cane Lane

I was most definitely surprised and was so wrapped up in the show I forgot that it could even be a possibility! ๐Ÿ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

That apology was so beautiful! Loved that she was also constantly watching the show even though she was mad at him! And I will make a poll soon with the shows I have so you guys can choose the next one! ๐Ÿค—

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Rusty! And I would actually prefer to believe that they just stayed friends. I grew tired of every show or movie where a guy and a girl are friends they end up together and have "loved each other all along". I feel like they proved they will always be friends no matter what and that is beautiful! // I never thought that Karl was that tall! I guess I just imagined him shorter because of his animated self ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคฃ

Mandy Cane Lane

Yeah, this was super well written! And what comes next? I have kindly been given acces to several shows so will make a poll soon with what I have available to me and you guys get to choose ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Mandy Cane Lane

Haha, thank you very much Josh! I enjoy being a happy Mandy ๐Ÿคช

Mandy Cane Lane

Agreed, how and why is that even legal? ๐Ÿ˜  Or when they purposely try to get unflattering shots of people at the beach or just living there lives. Leave them alone ๐Ÿ™„

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you so much Ash! I have been given access to several shows to watch, so I will see what I have and make a poll for you guys to choose what show comes next! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh, as others have mentioned, you still have the DVD "extra" ๐Ÿ˜… "The art of corpsing", and the outtakes from this special, AND a little extra called "Finding Leo", before you're done with Extras. All three should be fine with YouTube. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Tony Mingoia

Oh brilliant Danny! Thank you! They made so much content with this show! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you very much MH!! Let me guess, he compares it to kidney stones! ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคญ

Mandy Cane Lane

๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐ŸŒป

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you so much Dairychoco! Will check them both out!!

Mandy Cane Lane

I get it ๐Ÿ˜… I'm actually glad you forgot, because it might have been too much of a distraction to constantly look for the cameo or wonder who I was talking about. This way it was a joyous Mandy shriek of surprise. ๐Ÿคฃ๐ŸŒน

Tony Mingoia

Thank you very much for explaining! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Mandy Cane Lane

Hope you enjoyed the reaction and the pizza Mr 44 ๐Ÿค—

Mandy Cane Lane

Haha, I had forgotten! You know me well!! This whole show was just awesome amd having Karl in it made it extra awesome! Get it? Extra awesome ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Mandy Cane Lane

I am sure they will, unless Stephen Merchant is there to cut the sadness ๐Ÿ˜…

Mandy Cane Lane

Haha, not sure I made fun of it. I liked it! ๐Ÿ˜… I repeat lots of noises and accents. It's an ADHD thing apparently ๐Ÿคช

Mandy Cane Lane

Also thank you Danny for the 720p version! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh, that is AWESOME! Thank you for always hooking me up Danny! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค—

Mandy Cane Lane

It is on Star tier. ๐Ÿ™ˆ Waiting sounds like a good plan though. You guys do as you please!๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค—

Mandy Cane Lane

It all depends on what I can get my hands on. I currently do not have Inbetweeners but will see if I can get it and will put up a poll (from what I have) for the next show!

Mandy Cane Lane

I love that they also just remained friends instead of the much overplayed 'they end up a couple because a man and a woman "can't just be friends"' ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป

Mandy Cane Lane

haha ,remember when i said a few weeks / months back there's a particular part in extras that always brings a tear to me? this was it :P that part is so wholesome! id love to see the office and then the brent films after , Derek is pretty darn good aswell , some more legendary Gervais! have a good day/night ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐Ÿ–ค

TheHigh

Yay, loved the reaction, this Special is just so good. A couple of parts are a little contrived though, people don't just blurt stuff out like that (e.g. when Andy said it was that last show and called the audience morons). But overall it was so good. I mentioned about Ricky having a moment in the Special (dunno if you remembered), but yeah, every time Maggie reacts to Ricky's big apology, it gets me. Her reaction to "I'd be the penguin" just gets ya. They built up to that for most of the episode. Awesome moment, and I wouldn't be surprised if Ricky meant most of that, which is why it was written in. Now we are left to ponder... did they end up together. I'm going to go with yes. Karl is 6ft1in (1.85m), Ricky is 5ft8in (1.73m), and Steve is 6ft7in (2.0m). Oh and for completion, Ashley (Maggie) is 5ft2in (1.60m). Ashley is also in Afterlife btw. That series has a sad undertone all through, but there is comedy there. Derek is funny as hell, has Karl and is sometimes a little coarse :) The bloopers though are hilarious. And of course The Office is the classic. Just amazing comedy writing. Ricky at his best. What a great evening this was. Thanks Mandy !!

Rusty Dog

I'm a huge Doctor Who fan and this is a hot take that would get people so mad, but honestly the scene here completely feels like it could be a Ten era episode. I feel there's such rose coloured glasses when people think about it, when it was mostly cringe nonsense ๐Ÿ˜ฌ not a fan of Ten at all

Michael Harrop

I love the part with Andy, basically just Ricky Gervais calling out the paparazzi thing and you're spot on with Emma Watson, they did the same thing with Millie Bobby Brown too. It's the height of creepiness seeing these actresses as kids, growing up through the harry potter films or Stranger things or whatever... and as soon as they turn 18 it's as if everyone's been queuing up to celebrate "finally it's okay to admit they're hot"... It's disgusting. I really love the way Ricky & Steve write, they keep the characters so grounded & believable and they're really good with the sad moments. Same with the Office & Derek and Afterlife, there's a good dose of reality they deliver with those moments and they always land really well. Great reaction as always, it's such a pleasure to journey through shows like this again with someone watching them for the first time :) But... What's next i wonder?!

SynphamyMusic

The world is a good place when Mandy is happy ๐Ÿ˜Š

Josh Read

Not just paparazzi who are creepy like that with young women. There have been multiple countdowns on the internet and trashy magazines until multiple women turned 18. It's so gross and effed up.

DahDutcher

Amazing reaction from a lovely human! ๐Ÿ’™ I have watched this episode (and all the others) about 20 times probably and the scene where Andy apologises to Maggie on Big Brother *always* makes me cry! Extras is a harsh show at times, focuses on failure, embarrassment, ego, unkindness. But that's why Maggie herself (easily my favourite character in the show) and heartfelt scenes like that work so well. I agree with you too, Mandy! Ashley Jensen, aka Maggie is a very good-looking woman! Feel so awful that she's so regularly criticised for her looks in this show! Andy and Clive Owen need an appointment with an optician, immediately! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Others are championing Derek and After Life but I'm afraid I can't in the same way. For me, neither show comes even close to the brilliance of Extras. I have many reasons, could write an essay on why, but won't for now. I would strongly recommend The Office UK though! For me, this was Steve and Ricky's magnum opus! Absolutely exquisite! You are so right that Stephen Merchant is not given enough credit. He writes 50% of Extras and The Office and for me it shows. Derek and After Life are both penned solely by Ricky. He needs Steve IMHO. Just my opinion. Lots of people love Ricky's solo written stuff, so it's subjective I reluctantly concede. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Great to watch these with you! ๐Ÿ™

Ash Jeffries

There is also a nearly 6 minute video of Stephen accepting a British Comedy Award for Extras which is funny https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kPvAPnvv9M

Danny

They filmed a dvd extra about Karl's experience on the set. Unsurprisingly it's hilarious and it's available on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMS37RPht-4

MH

Yeah I was gonna do the same. I don't like series 2 though so one is enough for me to binge watch

Danny

This version is 720p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGvgtYHLYwY

Danny

It has a short outtakes video too. About 6 minutes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2StWeXTsbjo

Danny

I'm sure you're gearing up to watch derek soon, there is a DVD extra called 'the art of corpsing' from EXTRAS that would make a good youtube reaction i think, its essentially more bloopers but with commentary from the actors on how bizzare an experience it is, its both funny and interesting Also, you could definitely watch doctor who! plenty of people have done it and theres a bit of a gap in the market right now so to speak. its a bit of a long haul commitment, but i dont doubt most people would enjoy a reaction to it someday

Dairychoco

Doctor Who is a great show that started in the 60's and ended in 89 but was revived in 2005 and is still going to critical acclaim, but has gone downhill in the past 2 series, a new series is due to start so I'm hoping it picks up again. During this time of this special (2007) Doctor Who was very popular and still is but I think Ricky just isn't a fan of fantasy and sci-fi so he wrote Andy like that. David Tennant is considered one of the best actors to play the Doctor, he played the 10th Doctor (the Doctor is an alien who can regenerate and change his appearance when he is fatally wounded and so has been played by 13 different actors, the most recent Doctor (12th) was played by Jodie Whittaker making her the first woman to play the Doctor. A new series is due to start with Ncuti Gatwa set to play the 13th version of the Doctor making him the first black man to play the role.

JokerDanny

I'm going to order a pizza and watch this (both parts, stuffed crust).

Jeffrey44

Hey Mandy! I bet you forgot about the special cameo I mentioned in this special. Indeed, I was talking about Karl. I seem to remember in one of the podcasts, he was moaning about the experience as you would expect. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm glad you enjoyed the episode, and the show in general. ๐Ÿ˜˜

Tony Mingoia

Derek and After Life will make you cry

Liam Tulley

Ahh ok that's a shame. I'll probably wait until she finishes and upgrade for a month then!

Lee Dellbridge

Nah mate we say it properly it's everyone else getting it wrong lol

Lee Dellbridge

Funny you should make fun of Marcus Bentley the big brother narrators accent, he's from Newcastle that's where I'm from too. So I guess we say 'again' weird ๐Ÿ˜

Michael Harrop

She started it, its on the higher tier though

Danny

Here the dvd extra of Karl Pilkington's behind the scenes day of filming of his day as an extra on Extras. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMS37RPht-4

JokerDanny

I know you recently mentioned seeing The Moaning Of Life so fingers crossed that is coming to Patreon :)

Lee Dellbridge

Inbetweeners next? Loooooool Hope you are good x

Charlie Costa

Makes me cry every time, such a lovely story of friendship and easily Ricky's best acting performance! So good!
