Ricky Gervais' one-hour special edition of his dramedy Derek is to stream on Netflix starting April 3.
The episode initially aired in the United Kingdom in December.
Seasons 1 and 2 of the half-hour series are currently streaming on Netflix. The show follows the lives of a group of British nursing-home residents and the hard-working, well-meaning people who look after them.
Gervais was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Actor and a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his portrayal of Derek Noakes, "a tender, innocent man whose love for his job at a retirement home shines through."
"Derek cares deeply for the home's residents, because they are kind and funny and tell him stories of what life used to be like. Among those in his life are Kev [played by David Earl,] a lovable train wreck who lives with Derek and spends most of his time lazing around the home; and Hannah [played by Kerry Godliman,] a care worker in the home and Derek's best friend. She is smart, witty and hard-working, and, like Derek, always puts other people first," a synopsis said. "In the Derek special, Tom [played by Brett Goldstein] has a new job, which allows him to spend more time with Hannah. Will this allow their relationship to flourish? Derek is upset with Hannah for upsetting Kevin, who goes missing, whilst Vicky [played by Holli Dempsey] takes on more responsibilities."
