Masterful writing and performances. It's a great shame that they don't work together any longer.
-
2:35 "Now David, I know you've been looking closely at our Microsoft's values" Brent face yep
-
Incredibly talented writing. Meticulous, and I think the genius word must come out here. The way he twists the answer into the opposite or irrelevance, especially without saying 'but' to turn it round, really amazing. Look at Nelson Mandela - years clean, didn't reoffend, proves that prison works. Priceless....
-
This is possibly one of the best things ever put on film.
-
the way Merchant says "thanks" at the very beginning for some reason has me in stitches every time
-
"COULD you just let me finish?!?" Haha love it, he irritates him literally straight away.
-
It was shown inside Microsoft as a training video. I remember seeing it before I'd ever heard of The Office. Blew my freakin mind.
-
I think this is the funniest Brent has ever been. "Come to worked knackered at your desk, fatigued through intercourse. Your no good to man nor beast."
-
Haha Steve Merchants face when he has just backhandedly been called a four eyed freak always cracks me up to the point of having a hernia.
-
The part about Mandela cracked me up, brilliant.
-
"Well you've gotta have secretaries" Realises what he's said, proudly announces that he hates sexism then proceeds to disqualify that with all that follows. Love him and think it's time to rewatch the box set from start to finish.
-
Better than anything in the Office and that was superb. Classic Brent. The only staff training video they would ever remember. All employers need this sort of approach.
-
The writing.. the delivery.. the timing.. It's all so perfect. I've watched this time and time again. I've never been a Microsoft fan, but major kudos to the people that hired Ricky and Stephen to produce this. Brilliant.
-
Ricky Gervais is brilliant as always but there is some delicious acting by Stephen Merchant in this one. His non-verbal responses to David's disastrous ramblings are priceless.
-
“The one thing he was not honest about was the thieving, so…” lol
-
"I had to let him go in the end, he didn't have a clue what he was doing."
-
I like how Stephen Merchant keeps going back to Microsoft trying to keep the interview relevant after Gervais says some hilariously outrageous streams of thought :D Brilliant!!
-
Wow, Nathan ended up doing pretty well for himself
-
When Brent said cheap as chips, all I could hear was Karl Pilkington going on about how he came up with that choice XFM gameshow AFTER thinking of the name for it, CHEAP AS CHIMPS!
-
Stephen merchant, finally got his face on the screen. His cameo in mib 2 his best work, in the postal office
