PHOTO O’ The Day- HBO sent Ricky Gervais a silver Karl Pilkington head from Tiffany’s

ByStarcasm Staff

I recently got emotionally and cerebrally attached to Ricky Gervais and his personal plaything Karl Pilkington, and I can’t get enough. They are my drug of choice.

Sooo, when I saw this on Ricky’s blog, I suddenly have never wanted something more from Tiffany’s. HBO sent it to Ricky to as a good luck charm for the commencement of his shooting his latest sitcom created with Stephen Merchent. It’s called Life’s Too Short, and stars Warwick Davis of Williow and Leprechaun fame. This is the first sitcom that Ricky and Stephen have made that Ricky doesn’t star in, but he and Steve are making cameos as themselves.

If you’re not sure who that little round-headed guy named Karl is, click here to learn more about him, and find out why HBO might have sent Gervais that little bauble. And, no, that’s not a broad-stroked cartoon Karl, that’s a very accurate and detailed rendition of what he actually looks like.

I hope HBO mass produces these, because this charm is the only I’m putting on my Christmas wishlist, and I’d hate to have to have it bootlegged.
