Astounding that David Earle had never acted outside of his own short videos before he got the call for Derek. I struggle to think of a monologue that is so laser-focused & exact in capturing the heartbreak and emotion of a moment!
@@spizzenergi2292you are absolutely better than you think and your kindness has been appreciated more than you’ll ever know. It will be ok. And if it’s not well I’ll be there with you mate.
The brilliance of Ricky Gervais is that he can have you howling with laughter one minute, them in floods of tears the next. Extras, Derek, and Afterlife are all testament to this. The man really is a genius.
Damn. I've had three friends die in car accidents (yes, plural). I've had friends never return home from international wars (Afghanistan and similar). I've had friends pass away from terminal cancer.... but God almighty ....2:05.... it makes me cry more than all of these other times. I swear it's the music! Gervais just knows what to do.
I’m so sorry for your loses my friend. I’m not religious but I wish you healing and sunshine and good bright moments. You are a very strong person and I hope you realise that. Thank you for sharing what you did. I wish you the best from 🇮🇪 and I hope that the families of the people who don’t return from fighting those wars know that it isn’t just Americans or British people who respect and appreciate their service. You have a lot to give the world mate. Keep your chin up and keep being you. The world needs more people like you brother. ✌️❤️👍☀️ From Dublin
Really is a beautiful scene, remember we only get 1 mother and father. If you can find it in you to forgive just do it and give them a big cuddle and kiss. Try anyway.
Kev's ode to derek is the best written scene of the whole series
Damn Right sir..
@@chucku.farley616 Thank you sir

Catch him in Cemetery Junction
I couldn’t have put it better myself. Amazing
Words can't describe how beautiful this scene is.
"I've got a dad."
The best scene of the most beautifully written, most underrated programme to ever exist.
Best monologue ever. Kills me.
It really is. And it does me too. 🙏🏻
I’m a nice person, I just took wrong turning
Same, absolute crippler

This monologue is delivered to perfection. The pauses… his face. Unbelievable Talent. Ricky Gervais is truly gifted.
I`m a grown men. I`m not crying. But watching this scene... god i was crying like a baby.
And Coldplay ! My GOD!
I feel you mate the combination of the script the delivery by David and the music is just something else it really is
Such a great delivery, a real surprise when you consider the character. Superbly acted scene he should be proud
100%
Damn that gets me every time, especially that pat on the head.
I came for the song and then this
Every damn time
Still crying after watching this so many times...
It’s brilliant

The man really is a genius.
He's brilliant and I hate that some people think Derek is mocking the disabled. It's so very far from that.
"Do you have any regrets?" gets me in tears every time! David Earl is absolutely top class
What an amazing script and peice of acting by David Earl this really is
i'm not a failure cos i didn't succeed, I'm a failure cos I didn't try
Genius.
Close to home.
We all need a Derek in our lives.
Different league of acting ❤❤❤❤❤
I can't help to cry my eyes out as soon as the car stops and Derek runs to hug his dad. 😭
The best monologue the best acting I’ve ever seen. Absolutely incredible. This is true cinematic art.
Damn.

“I’m not a failure because I didn’t succeed, I’m a failure because I didn’t try”

As a alcoholic this breaks me every time 😢
That hits a lot of grown ass man to the core…. If you know you know..
Best monolog. Few pieces have this impact.
Ricky ...you are mi.inspiration
We are all, in our own way, trying.
Dachshund saved me..can you believe a dog saved me from doing something stupid
Kevs realisation hits hard for a failure like me....
Me too. 👊🏻
Me too
Me too
But life isn't over yet. A cliche, but true.
The head pat 😭
" I'm not a failure 'cause I didn't succeed, I'm a failure because I didn't try ". I've never related to a statement more. I've squandered my life.
Still time to try pall 🙏
“Every second counts”
I'm just gonna go call my dad real quick and tell him I love him.
Love Derek. Love Hannah. Love them all.
Its the false smile
lights will guide you home
Considering he's got no acting skills, he's absolutely brilliant 👏 👌 ❤
Que grande q eres ricky
Gervais=genius
