    Ricky Gervais Cameo on US The Office

    January 31st, 2011 | Trailer, US TV | bertas | No Comments

    Dear faithful readers, I will preface this clip by saying that I was never a fan of the US version of the Office. I did watch the UK version and enjoyed it very much (although it did make me curl my toes in embarrassment sometimes. So shoot me I’m a wuss!) Be as it may [...]

    Dear faithful readers, oh I know what you must be thinking – she is mental! She must be! I mean who else would consider CSI: Miami something worth studying at length (apart from wannabe criminals and bad actors)? Well… I was ill.

    Dear faithful readers, I have managed to pick up some sort of a cold last week and I’m still leaving snotty tissues everywhere.
