Derek Episode 6 Preview

As excited as I am about what we have coming up over the next week on tadpolehitler.com, and as eager as I am to see the series finale, it's a sad time as well. Derek comes to a close in the UK next week as the final episode airs at 10pm on Wednesday on Channel 4.

Ricky Gervais as Derek in Episode 6

The past five weeks have truly been a joy and I never, in my wildest dreams, thought that tadpolehitler.com would have had the success it has had. Thank you to everyone who has supported the website - the cast, crew and fans alike - you've made it all so very special.

But we must look ahead to episode 6 - the climax of the series - and it looks like there may be a few tears as a much-loved resident is in decline, which sets in motion a sequence of events culminating in the appearance of an unexpected visitor.

Here's two clips from the show to get you excited:
