Derek - Pilot Page 18

I'm going to watch it for the first time tomorrow having only seen clips here and there. What's puzzling me and drawing me to it is wanting to know what his point is in playing a learning disabled man.

He says he's not learning disabled, just odd.

From the bits I saw he looks /acts learning disabled not just odd, but he wrote it so fair enough if that's how he sees Derek.

The bits I've seen make me think that the show would work if they had chosen another actor instead of Ricky. It's impossible to believe him in the role.

just odd.

Mr Bean I'd class as odd, Derek? Not the same thing really.

Oh I'm so looking forward to the whole 'Ricky is evil and hates disabled people' discussion that's going to happen all over again once this series starts.

You f**king love it! :D

I really don't! I might skip reading this thread until the run's over.
