Another new discovery for me. Can't remember the last time until now that I had such a belly laugh.

Is he the one who does the podcast with Gervais and Merchant?

That's the only thing I know about him. What else does he do?

I used to think he wan't very funny. Then I bothered to listen to him. Now I would seriously think about doing some quite naughty things with him. He's ace.

I think he's funny, but I am sceptical if he's for real.
The podcasts were really funny though, I like all three of Gervais, Merchant and Pilkington, and Ricky Gervais' laugh has me in stitches alone.

I reckon I must be the only person in the world that fails to see the humour in Pilkington and the Gervais podcasts.
I tried the podcasts and just didn't get them. Sounded like three blokes talking shit about nothing in particular and totally devoid of any humour. The TV series was even worse as it requires twice the effort (eyes and ears) and still isn't funny.
To answer the question as to what else Pilkington does, wasn't he a radio producer before he found fame as a moron?

Karl Pilkington has a head like a fucking orange!!
He's hilarious, some of the stuff he comes out with is fucking stupid but genius at the same time. I get the impression however that he's alot more intelligent than he makes out. i think when he started out on the radio (XFM) it was legit but then it was slightly scripted as it got more popular but who cares.
cant wait for his tv show "karl pilkinton, seven wonders of the world" starts in august i think.
check it out:

I haven't seen that trailer before. Thanks. Really looking forward to that show. They've changed the name now tho. I prefer Karl Pilkington's Seven Wonders of the World but it's now called Karl Pilkington: An Idiot Abroad.
Seems a bit stupid how they've subtitled everything he says in the trailer too. Can Americans not cope with a Manc accent? Doubt it's like that in the actual show tho.
