Screenhead

Creators of two great modern comedy series (The Office and Extras), Ricky Gervais and Steven Merchant have teamed together to make their first ever movie, Cemetery Junction. The plan is to adapt it into a TV series (think MASH) after the film. There’s no release date set for this film (IMDB claims April 2010 for the UK), and the teaser tells us next to nothing about the story, which follows three insurance salesmen in the 70’s. However, it displays that Gervais and Merchant still have their trademark humour, gently demeaning Ralph Fiennes.
