BOWIE WEEK EXTRA: Bowie On The Box Blog1. Ricky Gervais Goes All Aladdin Sane

This is from the pilot to Golden Years, shown on Channel 4 in 1998. It wasn't 'picked up' and video shop owner Clive Meadows eventually turned into David Brent for The Office.

2. Bowie Legoman Pleads for 6 Music

Adam Buxton gets Bowie down pat. Wuzza Wuzza....



3. The Gayest Video Ever [according to Family Guy]

So there I was watching Family Guy when Peter Griffin announces 'the gayest video ever'. I don't know about 'gayest' - but it certainly is the most embarrassing. Actually Bowie comes out of it quite well, it's the prancing Jagger that makes me hide behind the sofa. The entire video appears on the show and is appended by Peter saying 'We let this happen'.
