What a treat! Comedian Ricky Gervais joined Mark Thompson to discuss his new show on Netflix "After Life".
After Life follows Tony, whose life is turned upside down after his wife dies from breast cancer. He contemplates suicide, but instead decides to live long enough to punish the world for his wife's death by saying and doing whatever he wants. Although he thinks of this as his "superpower", his plan is undermined when everyone around him tries to make him a better person. It is set in the fictional town of Tambury, where Tony works as a journalist at the local free newspaper, theTambury Gazette.
Ricky created, written, produced and directed the series. Stream the "After Life" on Netflix NOW.
