Yep.. another good un!
Am I mistaken, or was the woman that had cerebral palsy once in Grange Hill? I'm not too certain as it was not really during my Grange Hill watching era! I think she is now a stand-up comic.
Kate Winslet was pretty good, especially in the last scene as she is discovered making rude gestures behind someones back.
But, as fattaxi has briefly mentioned, the best bit was probably Andy's (Gervais) pretending to be a catholic and ending up in a prayer meeting causing all manner of uncomfortable moments! The Gervais/Merchant trademark! I can imagine it will get old at some point, but at the moment I'm still lapping it up!

Yeah I know shes a stand up comic and now you mention it she seems to be familiar from Grange Hill.
I was never really into Grange Hill though ..... it was about school.

Yeah she was in Grange Hill. Fair play to her for having fun with it, and fair play to Gervais and Merchant for not being PC. Extras is growing on me more and more. Kate Winslet was my favourite of the guest stars so far (her, Kemp and Stiller).
Also the more I see that agent, the more it's obvious that Gareth from The Office was almost totally based on Merchant.

You ratbags are tormenting me here! We got The Office over here in Oz, so there's a good chance we'll get this one eventually, but in the meantime I'll just have to keep reading your posts and driving myself nuts waiting.

Kate Winslet? Are you serious?

Yes.. Kate Winslet was it the last one.. the real Kate Winslet.
Depending on how long you have been out in Oz, you will proabably know of Ross Kemp (Grant Mitchell in Eastenders).. he was in the previous episode with Vinnie Jones and Shaun Williamson (Barry from Eastenders). The first episode of the series had Ben Stiller in it.
Coming up later in the series we have, Samuel L. Jackson, Patrick Stuart and errr.. Les Dennis (who apparently is amazing in his episode according to Mr Gervais).
I fear this may have driven you even more nuts.

extra's is awesome! ;D the only episode i've missed so far was the first one, but the ross kemp one was brilliant "we'll have to cut before that fat little extra gets his face in" LOL, and kate winslet was sooo good in the last one, and the girl from cerebal pausy, she must have been in grange hill or somthing cos i tottally recognised her too. I didnt like the office (dont hate me) but i love extras and gervais' stand up is brilliant too. looking forward to this week's! best! is it sameul l jackson? cos if it is, hes a legend

Mandy, if you're familiar with BitTorrent, all 3 episodes are available on uknova.com
And the first two at least can be found at torrentreactor.net
I don't actually own a television!
