Ricky Gets Recognised by the Homeless
While most stars have to deal with the pressure of the paparazzi and weird fans pestering them morning, noon and night, Ricky Gervais has to deal with homeless people recognising and approaching him. One of the most unusual instances of this is when Ricky and Karl were on a night out when a homeless man approached them and said, "Oh, mate! I've just been nicking your DVD from HMV", at which point he showed them a bag full of DVDs, he also said "they're going like hot cakes". Ricky is often confused by this, usually wondering how they managed to see his TV projects. He frequently jokes that they must be watching it through Dixons' window.
