This is Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the guys behind the truly exceptional The Office (both the original Brit version and the Steve Carell Americanized version). Microsoft had them create this for their UK employees.Here is part 2. Great stuff!

    Oops! That should be Steve Carell not Carroll.

  2. downs1de says:

    Wow, he spelled it Carrel up top not Carroll. Learn yourself to edumacate. DUR!

  3. Joao says:

    Never seen the American version of “The Office”, so no comparison, but the Original Brit version rocked to the max. Gervais’s character is soooo beautifully crafted… so mediocre but with such airs of coolness, and self-promotion. The perfect Twit (no pun, really twit…)
    Hi La Ri Ous….

    looking at the out-takes its amazing that they actually managed to get anything down at all without laughing

  5. Mark says:

    This makes me realize how much I’ve missed David Brent. He’s brilliant at making you uncomfortable. Where’s Dawn and Garth? They should have had cameos. (only watched part 1, so excuse me if they show up later!)

  6. Joao says:

    They don’t

    This is cool as I have been working with a David Brent lookalike, Tim Oliver, and over the last week have noticed my videos on http://www.youtube.com Sky Rocket.

    Until tonight, when a friend mentioned the Microsoft training videos, I could not work out why in the last week I have had over 1500 people download/view one of my videos. I have also now put the videos I did on http://www.cosmic1.com and they have well pushed up my bandwidth.

    It’s all cool and good news for Tim Oliver – David Brent lookalike – although he has been so busy he chooses to avoid calling me to thank me for spending hours editing video just to promote him. Not a ******* word of thanks from him. Boy has he got so into character. He is just like a real life David Brent unfortunately.
