Description
Series 1: Ricky plays Andy Millman who, having given up his day job to
be an actor, finds he just can't land the big parts. In fact, he rarely gets a
speaking role so spends most of his days stuck in a green room with other
extras, envying the A-list stars, with his fellow actor, Maggie Jacobs (Ashley
Jensen).
Each episode Extras has a different setting and cameo appearances from guest
artists including: Samuel L Jackson, Kate Winslet, Ben Stiller, Ross Kemp,
Vinnie Jones and Les Dennis!
Series 2: The second series sees Andy (Gervais) experience the highs he
has longed for with his newly written sitcom, 'When The Whistle Blows'. However,
while the show achieves high ratings, Andy's creative integrity is under threat
from the catchphrase-riddled, mainstream appeal of it all. The answer; artistic
credibility and celebrity friends, which leaves poor Maggie out in the cold, now
working as a background artist on Andy's breakthrough venture.
As before, a slew of high-profile celebrities pop up for some hilarious cameos,
including Sir Ian McKellen, Robert De Niro and Orlando Bloom amongst others, all
willing and able to humiliate themselves!
