Thandie Newton as Sarah Palin


We all knew that Ricky Gervais was funny. But Thandie Newton? Have just recently seen W. by Oliver Stone, one of my favorite characters from the film was Ms. Newton's portrayal of Condoleezza Rice. Her mannerisms and speech were dead-on. I still get chills up my spine thinking about that role, watching her move around the room like a possessed Praying Mantis.

The above clip is from The Graham Norton Show on the BBC. Ms. Newton and Mr. Gervais have a good laugh reading a script from an "already" made adult film (aka as a porno) called Naylin Paylin. I couldn't make this stuff up.

Enjoy. I can't wait for Ms. Newton's impersonation of Cindy McCain.

The actual script reading doesn't start til the 1:45 mark, but the opening bit is Ricky Gervais at his best.
