Life's Too Short Episode Two Clip - Johnny Depp Is Pissed Off At Ricky Gervais (SPOILERS)

Episode Two of Life's Too Short aired yesterday in England, but everywhere else in the world must wait forever to see it. But thanks to YouTube, I can spoil another week of this awesome show for 99% of the world.

The episode starts off with Warwick Davis at a Sci-Fi/Fantasy convention, so it's loaded with Star Wars jokes and references. There aren't any clips available from those scenes, so I will feature the big guest star of the episode: a not-so-happy Johnny Depp.

The clip is pretty long (almost a 3rd of the episode!) so I'll set it up for you. Johnny Depp is playing Rumplestiltskin in an upcoming Tim Burton movie, so he calls Warwick Davis to come work with him for a week so he can get into the role. The job pays very well, and Warwick has no other work lined up, so he jumps on the opportunity.

Here's the scene. Pissed off Johnny Depp starts around the 4 minute mark, but it's all good.

Parts of this clip were floating around the internet about a month ago, and lots of people thought it was real footage. People are silly. 

Liam Neeson on Life's Too Short Episode One

Life's Too Short debuted yesterday in the UK. It's coming to US HBO in 2012, but if you can't wait (and I couldn't) there are some great clips on YouTube to hold you off.

If you don't know about this show, it's a mockumentary about Warwick Davis (Wicket the Ewok from Star Wars, Willow, etc). He's an actor who's out of work with everything going wrong in his life. He has a bad marriage, a terrible accountant and a useless assistant, so he turns to friends Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant (playing themselves) to help him get work.

The show feels very much like The Office (UK) meets Extras, which is a formula that I absolutely adore. Warwick is very much like David Brent in that he naively says many of the wrong things at exactly the wrong time.. and the celebrity cameos (playing themselves) makes it feel like a natural offshoot of Extras.

Episode one SPOILERS ahead.
-----------------------------------------

The very first celebrity cameo is Liam Neeson. He comes to visit Ricky and Steve to try out some comedy. This may be the funniest thing I have ever seen. If you can catch the clip in context in the show, go for it. But if not, here's the clip.

Warwick Davis in Life's Too Short (Plus An Idiot Abroad 2 Preview)

Little tidbits have been coming out about this show over the past few months and I've been waiting very patiently. We know that Warwick Davis plays himself in a scripted series about the frustrations he faces on a daily basis. We know it's written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant and coming out on BBC2 this fall and HBO in 2012.. and that's about all we know so far.

Finally, a video has been released showing actual scenes from the show. Well.. a tiny bit of a scene.
