Gervais Tips Borat For Award

Ricky Gervais is tipping fellow British funnyman Sacha Baron Cohen to follow in his footsteps by triumphing at next year’s Golden Globe Awards.

Gervais won a Best Actor For A Television Series Golden Globe in 2004 for The Office - and Borat star Cohen was nominated for two of the prestigious awards last week.

He says, “Sacha is just a different class. He is so brave. His work is on an entirely different level. No wonder he’s just been nominated for two Golden Globes.”
