'**Daniel Radcliffe**' is the third episode of the second season of *Extras*, the ninth episode overall in the series. It was first broadcast on 28 September 2006 on BBC Two and on 22 January 2007 on HBO. The guest stars in this episode were British actors Daniel Radcliffe, Diana Rigg, and Warwick Davis.

## Summary

Andy receives a bit part in a new fantasy film starring Daniel Radcliffe, who fancies himself a teenage Romeo and tries to seduce every woman he meets – including Maggie, and then blaming it on someone else every time he gets caught. Over lunch, Daniel invites himself to join Andy and Maggie and accidentally flicks a condom onto the head of Diana Rigg.

Andy takes Maggie out for a meal and inadvertently offends the mother of a teenager with Down's syndrome, leading to an increasingly hysterical reaction in the British media, who take his comments out of context. Andy manages to quell the anger, but back on the film set, he gets into a fight with actor Warwick Davis over remarks Andy privately made to Maggie – which she later repeats to Davis's fiancée. During the altercation, Andy accidentally knocks Davis unconscious, leading to the loss of his bit part and further embarrassment from the tabloids.
