Ricky Gervais has demonstrated his infamous dancing to John Travolta live on television.
Travolta became found fame off the back of his dancing skills in 1970s movie The Saturday Night Fever, and decided to show he still had it while on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross.
This prompted fellow guest Gervais to get on his feet and re-enact his embarrasing dance from an episode of The Office.
As the studio audience broke into laughter and Travolta looked on unimpressed, the comedian continued with an attempt at breakdancing. In the end the actor gave in and decided to follow Gervais's lead.
Following the charade, Travolta still accepted an offer to appear in his one-off last episode of Extras. He commented: "I'll probably do anything Ricky Gervais says."
He also revealed his feelings over the latest James Bond outing and Daniel Craig. He revealed: "I wanted to do James Bond but the new guy is awesome, the one I've liked the most since Sean Connery."
