The new David Brent emoji is genius
Ricky Gervais's character gets a very fitting tribute from Twitter in time for new movie Life on the Road
It’s not long now until Ricky Gervais’s iconic David Brent returns for some post-The Office adventures in the Life on the Road movie – and to celebrate, Twitter has given Brent his very own emoji based on his world-famous dance moves.
Yep, that’s right – all you have to do to have a mini version of the Wernham Hogg boss-turned-salesman and musician in your tweets is to type the hashtag #BrentsBack, and so far Gervais’ fans have absolutely loved it.
@rickygervais super pumped for #BrentsBack (and the emoji)

Now, if someone could get us an emoji of Martin Freeman looking exasperated towards a camera, we’d be in business.
Life on the Road will be released in UK cinemas on 19th August
