From the first scene you know it's going to be good. This is the office in it's original form, before the jokes got repeated and when you would have to leave the room because it was just too embarrasing to stay in your seat. I challenge anyone to try and watch this all the way through and not once have to either pause it to get your breath back or go into the kitchen to 'make a cup of tea' beacause you just can't handle the pain anymore!
And not only do you get a whole series of this mindblowing cringe fest, but awesome extra features can be yours too! And don't worry if you find yourself getting a bit confused, Ricky Gervais isn't like that in real life (we hope).
You will find yourself growing more and more attached to the characters with each spectacle, my personal favourite is Gareth, it's hard no feel a little bit sorry for him. Okay so mabey it is a pity-favouriteing, but who cares, as long as we don't have to listen to the bossman try and work hhis way out of another embarassing racist or sexist or generally offensive comment!
