The Office - Series 1 by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant |
A documentary film crew follows David Brent,
regional manager of the Slough branch of Paper Merchants, Wernham Hogg as
he and his 'team' go about their business. As David works he manages to
alienate, belittle, embarrass and offend just about everyone who works
with him...
The
Office is filmed in the style of a reality television programme. The
writing is subtle and deft, the acting wonderful and the characters
beautifully drawn: the cadaverous team leader Gareth, a paradigm of Andy
McNab's readership; the monstrous sales rep, Chris Finch; and the decent
but long-suffering everyman Tim, whose ambition and imagination have been
crushed out of him by the banality of the life he dreams uselessly of
escaping. The show is stolen, as it was intended to be, by insufferable
office manager David Brent, played by cowriter Ricky Gervais. Brent will
become a name as emblematic for a particular kind of British grotesque as
Alan Partridge or Basil Fawlty, but he is deeper than either.
