How, and I cannot stress this enough, is it not Friday yet?

Anyway, here we are, and at least we’re drawing nearer to lunchtime tomorrow, where Capetonians will down tools because it’s basically a crime to work past midday on a Friday in the Mother City.

Today’s throwback stars Liam Neeson and a very unique set of skills. No, not the ones you can see in the Taken trilogy, but rather his improv skills from Life’s Too Short.

The show, starring Warwick Davis and focused on “the life of a showbiz dwarf”, was written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, who first struck gold with The Office, and has some genuinely hilarious moments.

One of those features Neeson looking to branch out, so strap in and enjoy the show:

Props to everyone for keeping a straight face throughout that scene, although there were some difficulties.

Just take a look at the outtakes:

It’s not as good as The Office, or even Extras, but Life’s Too Short is still worth a watch if you’re a fan of Gervais’ and Merchant’s work.

As you were, then.
