Gervais claims podcast record

The Office star claims to have beaten his own record for the most download podcast ever

His Guinness Book of Records entry stands at an average of 261,670 downloads per episode.

But figures just in put the average at the end of his first Guardian Unlimited run over the half million mark at 541,329.

If you never tuned in, the show mainly consisted of Gervais and Office co-writer Stephen Merchant teasing Karl Pilkington. Oh, and there was some stuff about apes.

Gervais is now charging 95p an episode or £3.75 for six on iTunes and Audible.
