This must be extra super funny because I don’t get it.
I am not sure there is an actual joke.
The first guy is Jimmy Savile - Famous in the UK - Sexually abused over 100 people; kids, seniors, male, female, and everything in between.
The second guy is Russel brand - Famous (only kinda) in the UK - Accused of sexual assault very recently.
The third guy is Ricky Gervais - Famous, from the UK - not accused of any sexual assaults at this time.
It’s just a joke based on Gervais’ style of ‘jokes’
He’s a bit of a cunt in real life, not dissimilar to his onstage performance, which he always says is just a joke…
His, I never saw anythingness, about Charlie Hanson always seemed sus as well
Ricky is the opposite of a scum bag. It’s one of the few personalities you know is legit decent. No signs of narcissism megalomania or general out of touchness. He’s incredibly grounded
No /s tag?
I worked with him at XFM, he’s a grade A cunt of the highest order. The worst bully I’ve ever worked with.
Backstage at Live8 Ricky Gervais was at the side of the stage. Paris Hilton walked up to him and said how much she liked his stuff.
Ricky: “Have we met before?”
Paris “Yes. I’m Paris Hilton”
Ricky “Oh, sorry Paris, I didn’t recognise you without a cock in your mouth.”
Sounds pretty scummy, and not part of an act.
“I nearly knocked this old woman over,” he said, in a patter about drink-driving, “but I didn’t. I raped her.”
Hilarious

You can’t type out an out of context joke and act offended dude, that’s not how jokes or comedy works
I guess this would make more sense if I knew who the first guy was. I know about the charges against Russell Brand. No idea his connection to Ricky Gervais, if any.
The first is a European kiddy diddler. Forget the name. Gervase is just a bigot as far as I can tell with my limited knowledge.
The dude is a comedian. Fucking lighten up.
I mean can comedians not be bigots…?
I was recently invited to be a co-organiser of a stand-up comedy festival. I’d never done one before so I was given the rundown before we got to work.
The first thing they told me is that over the past ten(ish) years, comedy festival audiences had completely changed from people coming out to laugh, to people coming out to find ways to be offended, like people who once rode roller coasters for the fear and thrill, now riding them to see how much they could sue for being intentionally frightened.
And it’s true. I saw it actually happening. Every night of comedy two or three people would yell out “inappropriate” or “intolerant” instead of just laughing at what were essentially jokes told in a place centred around joking.
People are dogshit now. We’ve lost our fucking way. We’ve actually gone to war with humour and laughter.
This definitely happened.
Maybe you just hired shit comedians
You sound like someone who would yell out “inappropriate”.
ok I take it back, pulling this crap is the height of goddamn comedy.
Have you met me?? Have you even looked at the last half dozen comments I’ve left any given day?
My friend, you are doing the thing. You’re saying it is everyone else that’s the problem.
You sound like someone who would shout racial slurs and say “I’m just doing a bit!”
