Reel News doesn’t condone Gérard Depardieu’s recent decision to urinate in a bottle while travelling from Paris to Dublin, but we must acknowledge his willingness to take the (ahem) piss out of himself.

A promotional video for Astérix and Obélix: On Her Majesty's Secret Service– currently shooting in Ireland – finds the big man, dressed in Obelix gear, getting caught short on an aeroplane. Search for "Les Gaulois dans l'espace" on YouTube. His menhir remains discretely concealed throughout.
