David Bowie on Extras has just gone wildly viral again and it’s always a 5-star treat
This fabulous moment from Ricky Gervais’s Extras has been going wildly viral on Twitter for no good reason – well, apart from the fact it’s so very, very good.
It’s the second episode of the second series which aired all the way back in 2006, featuring the late, great David Bowie, and it’s always a 5-star treat.
Just brilliant, timeless comedy ✨@rickygervais co-wrote this song with David Bowie ❤️

And here are just a few of the things people said about it this time round.
Every time I watch this clip, & I mean, EVERY time, I laugh until I snort helplessly, like a pig @rickygervais https://t.co/jnCDscHBm5
