KARL PILKINGTON HOLIDAYS & SICK DAYS - Part 1

Release Date:

PART 1 of a compilation of every XFM Ricky Gervais Show segment pertaining to Karl Pilkington's many holidays and sick days. Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant are astounded by Karl's antics on his seemingly endless foreign holidays. They also discuss his Mancunian work ethic, or lake thereof.

In many ways, Karl's stories from his holidays are a precursor to An Idiot Abroad, the ultimate 'fish out of water' TV show in which Ricky and Steve send Karl around the world to exotic locations, and see how he acclimates (to great comedic effect).

CHAPTERS:

Rick, Steve, and Karl wrap up the show with humor, discussing spies, holiday drinking, and Karl's observations in Barbados (0:00)

Karl's unconventional upbringing, frequent trips to Porthmadog, early departure from school, and nostalgia (7:08)

Banter about work, surprise trip to Canary Islands, simple holiday pleasures, low-key vacations, and casual interest in reading (18:45)

Karl's humorous recounting of his holiday in Turkey, involving little people in the hotel kitchen and a misunderstanding about circumcision (32:28)

Ricky and Steve humorously discuss Karl's quirky comments and his fascination with a disappointing documentary about Oliver the Humanzee (38:36)

Karl's absence and lack of communication prompts frustration and disappointment, leading to sharing his phone number live on air (47:28)
