Not so good at doing 'funny', granted, but excellent at advertising himself. Ricky Gervais anyone?

Didn't they both start out on the same programme? The 11 O'Clock Show, I think.

Not much of a fan of him either. The Office was painfully good, but since then, he's way become staggeringly self-indulgent and self-congratulatory, in my opinion.

Extras was good. The first series, particularly. I loved the Kate Winslet episode. He's definitely gone downhill since then though.

I think that was the point i was making, although in fairness I'd got a bit fuzzy by then, so it may not have come across properly.

I loved the Patrick Stewart one too.

Unfortunately no one in his "creative sphere" says no so he just does what he likes now, whether others find it funny or not.

Is Cohen still married to Isla Fisher?

I think so. She's come along way since Shannon in Home & Away.
