According to the latest UK government figures, just over 23 million people have now received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine - and the NHS remains on track to offer every adult in the UK the vaccine by the end of the summer.
Gervais, meanwhile, is currently gearing up to film the third and final season of his acclaimed Netflix comedy After Life.
