    Just a quick question, does anybody know what the theme tune to Ricky Gervais' Extras is? I can't seem to find it on the web.

    Thanks

    OK, I'm currently listening to the version of the song that I got and it's not the one from Extras. Either the MP3 is wrong, or you guys are?
    I'll try a different one and check.

    As Alan Partridge would say, "I'm like the man in the orthopaedic shoes, I stand corrected."

    Just checked the iTunes music store and you were right.
    Thanks again.

    The week yer man from Coldplay was on, he did a cover of it, rather than Cat Stephen's version of it - might that be the difference?

    If I remember correctly, Gervais/Brent did a cover of Handbags and Gladrags in the first season of The Office too.
