The Office (UK series): Difference between revisions

[[File:the-office-small_9170.jpg|frame]]

 

 

The main setting is the administrative office of [[Incompetence, Inc.|paper supplies company Wernham Hogg]], presided over by [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist]] David Brent. His [[Number Two]], Gareth Keenan, is an unpleasant, pathetic loser with a military obsession. The most sympathetic character is Tim Canterbury, the witty clerk (see [[Tough Room]]) whose relationship with receptionist Dawn Tinsley seems to be an example of [[Star-Crossed Lovers]]. The series was met with great critical acclaim and won several awards, hailed for its original style and subtle, insightful humor.

Also highly successful is the [[Foreign Remake|German remake]] ''[[Stromberg]]'', wherein the main protagonist Bernd [[Character Title|Stromberg]] (the German version of David Brent) works for an insurance company.
