PART 2 of a compilation of The Re-Education of Karl, and related bits, where Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant teach their bald round-headed lackey, Karl Pilkington, about various interesting topics. Ricky usually gives Karl some homework to do in the week on a historical figure, and Karl describes on air what he's learned from his reading and other 'educational' assignments. Part 2 consists of the core 're-education' portions in which Karl demonstrates what he's gleaned from his weekly studies. ENJOY!
