This is my favorite scene, bar none, from Extras. It's Ricky Gervais (as Andy Millman) and Sir Ian McKellern as himself!
Learn the secrets of the great Sir Ian McKellen's greatness! Hear him speak Gandalf's greatest line!
Watch him school Ricky Gervais's character on the most subtle tricks of the trade. Watch Gervais (as Andy Millman) struggle to prevent his trademark inscrutability from giving way to slack-jawed incredulity. Watch him fail to conceal his alarm and consternation (always signalled by the trademark blinking and mouth-breathing)!
Do you not own the DVD set yet? If you don't, this is a taste of what you're missing. Gervais really is one of the most talented people on earth, which is why it's such a treat to see him with another one.
