In the My 70s feature, Johnnie's guest this week is British comedian Ricky Gervais, who discusses some of his favourite music and memories of life in the 1970s.

In the My 70s feature, Johnnie's guest is British comedian Ricky Gervais who talks about listening to artists such as Neil Young, Led Zeppelin and discovering David Bowie - one of his favourite all time artists.

He also talks about getting BBC Two in his house for the first time and watching Horizon, Fawlty Towers and Monty Python, which informed his love of comedy at a young age. His fashion "atrocities" include wearing Brutus gold jeans with patterns and flares, tank tops with nothing on underneath [and there's more where this came from!).
