Xfm Series 4

Xfm Series 4 ran for just six weeks from May 2005 to June 2005.

This time Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant had just finished making Extras. Highlights of this short run included Karl confessing he doesn't have medical check-ups for fear od the "finger up the arse" test and the story of Ricky and Karl's golfing adventures. The series ended with a shorter-than-usual show, as Ricky had to go to Live8 to introduce R.E.M.
