Ricky Gervais was at Wembley Arena last night in London. The show had elements of Gervais’ classic themes of obesity (he has an interesting solution to the epidemic) and homosexual humour mixed in with his brutal, crude humour.

BUT what made the show just fantastic was his ongoing ability to entertain himself, and his reading/commentary of the classic Biblical tale, Noah’s Ark. Pages projected on the gigantic screen, Gervais questioned how Earth can have over 5 million species of animals when Noah’s Ark just probably wasn’t that big…His commentary of each sentence, the ambiguous relationship between God and Noah and dialogues between the animals was hilarious – 2 toucans discussing if they should walk or fly to the Ark – was stomach hurting funny.

Gervais is definitely something to see when he returns to London in September or during his upcoming North American tour.
