‘Doctor Who’ to feature in Ricky Gervais’ ‘Life’s Too Short’?

Posted Filed under

Starring Warwick Davis, the new six-part series for BBC Two is written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (The Office, Extras).

RickyGervais.com posted this news exclusive: “Details are under wraps, but Ricky has filmed a little something for sci-fi nerds everywhere.”

The official website teased: “This time, Who meets Ricky in Life’s Too Short. I don’t know. Who? No, Who meets Ricky in Life’s Too Short. I give up. etc. All will be revealed. Watch this space. And time.”

Series 6 of Doctor Who concluded for the summer break with ‘A Good Man Goes To War’ last month and will return later this year.

Gervais has described the concept of Life’s Too Short as follows: “Third in our trilogy of TV sitcoms, Life’s Too Short is another naturalist observational comedy, dealing with everyday problems, human foibles and social faux pas… but with a dwarf.”
