It's like a real office.
Heads up Captain Obvious. Its not called a mock-umentary for nothing.

Office is great, only watched a few episodes (always miss them) but quite good. also have reliably good reviews from a certain fan (TaperJeansGirl)

everything on tv looks bad in comparison to the office..... no sorry thats becasue everything else on tv is poo. i like how in true british comedy style they ended it after 2 series', just like fawlty towers. makes each episode much more precious and they didnt kill the concept.

No, thats the "Comic Relief" episode in series 2. I love that episode.

“Neil make me laugh though, because, you know, it’s his interfering, it’s his timing. Going on about he wants some report doing-it’s red nose day, you know. Ooh, what’s more important, you Neil, with your report, or some starving children? Ooh I don't know. Ooh what would Lenny Henry say? I think we know-imagine him going out of the door on comic relief day and Dawn French is going ‘Where you going, you haven’t done the washing up. You haven’t put the rubbish out.’ ‘Do it yourself I’ve gotta save some Africans!’.”

best office quote:

"go and get my guitar" hard to explain here, but for those who have seen the episode, i think you will agree

I can read women. And you’ve got to know their wants and their needs, and that can be anything from making sure she’s got enough money to buy groceries each week to making sure she’s gratified sexually after intercourse.

Yeah that episode was on tonight.
I love the stuff that Gareth says when Rachael is sitting on Tim's desk.
Tim is really hot.

I agree that Tims hot, and a good actor also.

Yeah, that is probably one of my favourite episode series 2, ep 5. Looks like next week will be the last for all you tv minion office lovers..

Just a heads up to everyone, Ricky Gervais aka David Brent aka Co-writer of the Office will be on Parkinson this week. Check your local guides.

Does anyone else watch 'The Office'?

I've only watched the first season, and i'm completely hooked. Gareth is the funniest character, but David Brent has the best lines.

I still think the funniest 10 minutes i've ever seen on TV was in the episode of the motivational speaker. Gareth and his lesbian sisters fantasy. David Brent and his "Room 421 (whatever) doesn't exist... sometimes the complaints are false"...

And it's not just the clever lines. Some of the fart gags are just soo good. The stapler in jelly thing was really funny, but Tim hiding all of Gareths posessions was hilarious.

So yeah... if you haven't seen it, GO WATCH IT!!

Tim (Martin Freeman) has also been in the "Ali G" movie. Dawn (Lucy Davis) was in "Pride and Prejudice", Gareth (Macenzie Crook) has been in "Pirates of the Carribean" and Chris Finch (Can't remember his name) has been in "The Bill". Macenzie and Finchy's appearence was after "The Office", and Martin and Lucy's appearences were very much supporting roles. That is part of the framework of "The Office", you can't have superstars trying to be normal people, it just can't work. As Gervais said himself.
