Ricky Gervais

    Ricky Gervais est un talent comique célébré dont l'œuvre explore constamment les absurdités de la vie quotidienne et les tentatives désespérées des individus pour trouver un sens et une pertinence. À travers sa satire cinglante et son observation pointue, il crée des personnages souvent profondément imparfaits mais universellement reconnaissables, suscitant rire et introspection à parts égales. Sa capacité à trouver de l'humour dans le banal et le gênant révèle une profonde compréhension de la condition humaine. La voix distinctive de Gervais défie les conventions et encourage le public à remettre en question les normes sociales.

      Do you know what upsets David Brent? Wasted talent. People could approach him for guidance on team management and keeping morale high, but they don’t. This is the tragedy. Now, the Brentmeister General is ready to share scenes from his daily life that exemplify great team management principles. His unique brand of morale-boosting comedy—like when he convinced Dawn she was sacked—highlights his earthy wisdom: there should be no ego when working towards a common goal. Readers will also glimpse the passionate singer-songwriter behind the band Foregone Conclusion. These scripts reveal how anyone can be a great boss and use humor to enhance workplace morale. It’s all about investing in people—recognizing that staff are the most important asset. Brent emphasizes teamwork, suggesting that if you’re struggling with a task, he’ll help you tackle it together (not literally). Featuring 500 screengrabs from the series and unseen email exchanges between Brent and his BBC Producer, this script book offers fans a chance to relive their favorite moments repeatedly.

You haven't heard the last of this.' Rebecca Fellows, Richmond, Surrey Loads of Flanimals were hurt in the making of this book. Meet the Plamglotis who, born without feet, swallows its hands to walk on looking for food. Unfortunately, when it finds food it can't eat because its mouth is already full. The Underblenge has a snerbulent splench sucker that captures prey by sticking to their face and suffocating them, as its suckers are impossible to prize off. Unfortunately it can't catch anything as it can't move from the rock it was born on. The Grundit, who staggers around half-witted and grumpy causing trouble. Its favourite hobby is to use . . . the Puddloflaj as a mode of transport. (The Baby Puddloflaj, incidentally, can be used as a water bomb). There are 35 characters to get to know. Each one is introduced in stunning full-colour with the help of Rob Steen's remarkable, original and modern artwork which was created using a combination of traditional media and computer techniques.
