He doesn't just grab it he constantly smooths it over and purses his lips and juts his jaw out as he does it as if he's readjusting his composure as the man in charge of the situation (when he clearly isn't ofcourse). I find it hysterical.
Love how David avoids looking Dawn in the eye after she starts crying

"Whats that thing you put in the end of joints?" "Roach" "Caught you out drug addict!"
" Brent mused ..." Brent is by far the greatest Comedy Character ever written by anyone !!!
I love the little gesture he does with his hand after he jokes "caught you drug addict...nahhhh I was just..."

The best thing here is Oliver's shift from schoolboy excitement to squirming awkwardness.
"Well done, settling in...practical jokes for the good..." lol
The way he goes "am I, didn't know that?" After being called a "sad little man" is absolutely classic. It is something that have to admit has slipped into my own vocabulary when someone calls me something insulting
I love it how says 'better do these now actually' with a little frown... anything he can do to change the subject
thanks now my palm is fused to my face
2:42 - "Good Girl" I'm in tears. This bloke kills me!!!
The genius of the scene is how David Brent's prank backfires on him and Dawn exposes his pathetic nature in front of the temp.

I think Dawn almost reflects the audience’s view because she’s clearly repulsed by him and always seems uncomfortable when he’s around but there’s a rare sympathetic turn. Like when he blows the trivia in the pub and Finch starts berating him. She sort of sticks up for him because she knows Finch is just a straight up asshole where as David really is a pathetic man-child who can’t help his antics.

@@leahcimolrac1477 Yes interesting you noted that cos despite this moment in the first episode Dawn does have Brent's back at times and she needn't have defended him to Finch cos you'd think she'd think he deserved it but I guess it shows why Dawn was a good person that she'd even support the guy everyone hated.
"You steal a 1000 post it notes at 12p and youve made....????? (Counting) profit 😂😂😂😂😂 hilarious 😂😂😂
"Stealing ..-...THIEVING .... "
"Will you be the godfather to my child" followed by that expression at 3:50 - absolute brilliance
"you've made........... Profit" I still say that whenever I do math. Or say the word "profit"
I stole post-it notes from my first job and I was still writing down my to-do lists on them for about 2 years after that lol.

Don't judge the US version in season 1 but because they completely changed their concept after that and it was genius
how can you dislike the office? Genius tv & comedy gold. Sue me.
" Will you be the Godfather to my child " Aww HERE Gervais stop it mate I am in agony with my ribs hahahahahahaha Gervais and Merchant are Gods!!
The best thing is he couldn't count 12p(1000).
2:29 his face absolutely kills me. He looks like a little kid who's been caught misbehaving
My god I don't think we appreciated this masterpiece when it first aired.
He should have followed through... she'd obviously been stealing post it notes.
'Partly down to me, sure.'
probably the most sadly awkward scene ever. Brilliant though.
2:25 "That was a joke." 35 seconds later, she realizes what he said
Ricky is a comedic powerhouse
They pack so much in to these short scenes, the fact brent leans in to oliver getting excited about pranking dawn is hilarious, especially as oliver just sits there grinning in accordance until it all goes wrong and then the two of them are sitting in a room with no desk infront of them, one staring at the ground and the other staring at him. I duno why but its so stupid.
I like how the revelation that it was a joke was much more awkward and subtle here rather than the in-your-face moment in the American version.

I used to work in an office, & it was just like this. The feeling of working for a tyrant, where men & women trying to act like men carry the torch in belittling hard working staff who couldn't care less about gross profits & overheads. The atmosphere is unnatural & tense. Worse that being in church aged 9.

This was/is one of the best comedy shows of all time.
Looks like the temp is trying to physically distance himself from Brent. Brillant scene.
I love this scene 😂
This scene is dangerous.. Can stop you breathing from over laughter... Changed comedy forever..
Favorite scene from the office
".. probably entertainer third"... gold
I know it was early days in the series but I find Dawn crying to be out of character. She is quite timid and quiet but I think she would have been defensive from the moment David accused her or look at him like he is an idiot. I think it should have been a different character in that spot.
This is comic genius
Much Better than the US version of the show.
even THATS an understatement!
Dawn then released a single called “Shedding Tears”. 😂

The pilot episode of the US version was basically just the script of the 1st episode of the UK version but a few different "americanised" jokes like his nickname for jen being Camilla parker Bowles but the nickname for jan being Hilary Clinton and changing some of the dialogue as they thought it was too harsh The only scene that's different (Jim's pencil wall) was actually a reshoot that they did 6 months later.
