Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant and Warwick Davis give an update on filming Life's Too Short, airing later this year on BBC Two. Life's Too Short, written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (The Office, Extras), is a fake documentary following the day-to-day existence of real-life dwarf actor Warwick Davis (Return Of The Jedi, Harry Potter, Willow). Warwick plays a fictional version of himself. He is desperate, conniving, fame-hungry and self-centred, but always gets his comeuppance. Life's Too Short is an observational comedy, dealing with everyday problems, human foibles and social faux pas... but with a dwarf.

Looks like Ricky and Steve will be onto another sure-fire hit. As a writing partnership they can't do any wrong in my eyes.

Hilarious.
I just laughed when Chegwin and Barry come in front of the camera. I think this is gonna be a hit, but we'll just have to wait and see.

No-one, this site in particular, seems to have noticed that Les Dennis is in the trailer. Keith Chegwin walks off from the lights and Les Dennis walks in and applies the make up. Yes they have a similar look but come on credit where it's due. Plus Chegwin blue shirt, Dennis pink shirt.
