Extras - Complete DVD Box Set
Extras follows the life of Andy Millman, played by Ricky Gervais, and his struggles trying to make it as an actor. With a host of celebrity appearances from big names in TV & Film, excellent writing from Gervais and Merchant, Extras is one of the most successful British sitcoms of all time.
Andy’s continuing frustration with his incompetent agent ‘to the stars’ Darren Lamb (Stephen Merchant), and his assistant Barry ‘from Eastenders’ (Shaun Williamson) creates some of the funniest scenes in the show. Whilst each episode features a guest star, playing themselves, Extras twists the public perception of the celebrity to create some hilarious moments between Andy and the celebrity. In the same way that Gervais and Merchant were able to create awkward moments in The Office, Extras often uses taboo subjects to create some cringe worthy but hilarious scenes.
Some of the most notable guest appearances in the show include Ben Stiller, Kate Winslett, Samuel L. Jackson and Patrick Stewart. This Extras box set includes every episode from Series 1 and 2 as well as the Christmas Special.

Extras is one of my favourite comedy shows, and something I can happily watch again & again! The scenes with Gervais, Merchant and Barry from Eastenders are comedy genius. Brilliant boxset!
