And this.

They wouldn't let me use this as my new passport photo as you're not allowed to smile apparently. Shame. pic.twitter.com/99tmJaSWIc

Oh, and this. 

Listen, we're obviously both fine actors, so I think you should vote for who you find sexiest http://t.co/kUymeXu2Gv pic.twitter.com/Eg7yEI7fUc

The photos have quite the following online, including Mad Men actress January Jones who was so inspired by Gervais’s bathtime selfies, she’s started a series of her own. She calls them “a bathtub series not by Ricky Gervais but by me.” 

This one is called “fake sleeping in a tub without a cat”.

I was inspired by @rickygervais to do a bathtub series, I'm calling it "a bathtub series not by Ricky Gervais but by me". This one is called 'fake sleeping in a tub without a cat'. #gotoffworktooearlytoday
