David TennantGeorge proves he can take the Michael in Extras Christmas Special Well, we thought it was just another strange bit of TV gossip to be taken with a pinch of salt. However, it seems not! As previously mentioned in the blog last week, George Michael will be sending himself up big time in the BBC’s forthcoming Extras Christmas Special. Whilst the net has been flooded with rumours flying around for months about which A-listers will feature in the last ever episode of Extras (Prince? Will Ferrell?), we’ve managed to find the newly released trailer. Enjoy! Submitted by on Wed, 2007-10-03 11:19. George Michael to get Extra self-referential? Here's an odd bit of television gossip that should likely be taken with a bit of salt... Apparently George Michael appears in the special final Christmas episode of the hit Ricky Gervais show Extras, playing himself and spoofing his own past drug and public bathroom sex antics. Now, Extras was known for having celebs make self-effacing appearances (Sir Ian McKellen was nominated for an Emmy for his, and celebs like Daniel Radcliffe, Kate Winslet and Orlando Bloom have made similarly hilarious turns), but making a joke about a rather big scandal (which resulted in his coming out) would be pretty daring. Michael does have a history of poking fun at his own image, as he did in a special for Little Britain and looks ready to do in his recurring role as an angel on Eli Stone. And Gervais reportedly played a trailer for the Christmas special at a standup performance last week, and Michael appeared in the trailer (along with Clive Owen, David Tennant, Gordon Ramsay and Barry from Eastenders). So who knows? Maybe we should have "Faith" in the story after all... Submitted by on Tue, 2007-09-25 14:34. |
