Acknowledge Stephen
This is one of the greatest character introductions ever😹😹
Lying about forklift certification makes it so much better lmao
It's the look he gives to the camera at the end of the clip that gets me
The genius was in him recognising how funny it was
‘I do it because one day someone will say there goes David Brent…………I must remember to thank him’
Nothing will ever come close to original The Office. Extras and Derek are phenomenal, but The Office is his your masterpiece. The benchmark of all future comedy series to come. Cheers Ricky you old slag
He gives the tests!
She has left him. I forgot about that.😂😂
I watched every episode and love everything you have created since. Absolutely amazing talent, thank you Ricky Gervais.
