Episode 192: Ricky Gervais On The Music Of After Life In Lockdown!

By Edith Bowman

Our guest on this latest lockdown episode of Soundtracking requires very little introduction.
We all know what a talented chap Ricky Gervais is - whether writing, acting or directing. 

And he's put all of these skills to good use for After Life, now in its second season on Netflix. For those of you who don't know, After Life tells the story of Tony, whose world is turned upside down after his wife dies from breast cancer, and features a brilliant ensemble cast including Ashley Jensen, Penelope Wilton, Jo Hartley and Joe Wilkinson.
The music is pitch-perfect and wide-ranging too, from the needle-drops to Andy Burrows' score. Expect music from Hammock, Lionel Richie, The Carpenters, David Bowie and Bill Withers!
