    Channel 4 10pm. Last week's episode was incredibly moving and thought provoking, as well as being very funny. I'm not a great fan of Ricky Gervais but this is an absolutely amazing character and performance. Catch that episode on 4OD.

    I saw the second half of it last week and really enjoyed it. Karl Pilkington is good in it too.

    I'm a massive fan of Ricky Gervais. When I watched that pilot of Derek last year I wasn't sure, I also wasn't sure after a few minutes of last weeks . . .but by the end I loved it. I've watched it another twice since. Unbelievable programme. . . .

    Tonight's episode was superb. Though I thought Kev was a bit out of order giving Derek special brew. :(

    Fantastic programme! Gervais is a genius... The Office, Extras are brilliant but I think Derek is the best yet. Well written brilliantly acted & throw KP in the mix! Perfect!

    Yea, me as well. I did a bit of research and it turns out she's a stand up comic. She's done Michael Mcintyre's Comedy Roadshow too.
