Fans of Ricky Gervais will likely know about Stephen Merchant, [IMDB – WIKI – Official Site] he is the co-writer and co-director with Ricky Gervais on The Office and Extras among other projects they worked on together.  He’s a very funny man and now is giving us the pleasure of an official website.
His FAQ section I found most interesting as he gives insight on how one could get started in comedy and gives some words of advices based on his own career.  They say behind every great man is a great woman, in this case it’s a 6 feet, 7 inches tall lanky, goggle-eyed freak.
