A listener suggests by email that [[Ricky Gervais|Ricky]] and Steve visit Karl's apartment and do a live show one Saturday.  Karl is against the idea because they'll make a mess, make lots of noise, and because "parking is really bad".
[[10 November 2001]] is memorable episode from the second series of the Ricky Gervais Show on Xfm. It features the first significant laughter from Karl on air, the first time no listeners were able to correctly answer Rockbusters and Karl selling his futon and desk combo live on air for £100.


For the first time ever, not a single contestant is able to provide the correct answers to all three Rockbusters questions correctly, the first of the three clues proving the tricky one.  Karl wants to hold onto the prizes, but Ricky and Steve insist they give them away, as the answer people were giving makes more sense than the one Karl was looking for.
