Ricky Gervais completes first rough cut of Life on the Road

Ricky Gervais has completed the first rough cut of the David Brent movie Life on the Road. Cue celebratory Brent dance.

Gervais – who is writing, directing and starring in the big-screen Office spin-off – says this first ‘101 minute’ version of Life on the Road is “pure fun. And cringe”. Sounds perfect, right?
