Gervais: New Brent movie shows folly of reality TV

Ricky Gervais says 'Life On The Road' is a "parable" about fame.

The 53-year-old comedian - who is set to reprise his role as the delusional David Brent in 'The Office' spin-off movie - has revealed the mockumentary, which sees the former paper company manager search for a record deal, is a comment on the efforts of ordinary people trying to find their 15 minutes of fame.
