Series Two of the Golden Globe-winning comedy from Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. Swindon have merged with Slough. Manager David Brent has to assimilate the new intake, a group of well-trained and motivated personnel. It should be an easy job. Sadly, someone forgot to tell them that they're meant to laugh at everything David says.
Neil, the new guy in charge, is Brent's worst nightmare: younger, better-looking, multi-skilled - and here's the killer - more popular.
Meanwhile, unlucky in love Tim finds his fortunes changing, we discover there's more to demure Dawn than first meets the eye... and even less to Gareth.
"Wonderful, subversive... ghastly, funny" The Hollywood Reporter
"The funniest thing you're likely to see all year." The San Francisco Chronicle
"The funniest British export since Monty Python." Variety
Editor's Note
David Brent (Ricky Gervais) is up to the same old sorry tricks in the second season of the BBC's masterful comedy series THE OFFICE. Unfortunately for David, his company has merged and coworker Neil (Patrick Baladi) is now his boss. Nonetheless, David retains his hopelessly "cheery" demeanor in order to stay pals with Tim (Martin Freeman), Gareth (Mackenzie Crook), and Lucy (Dawn Tinsley), who see through his pathetic facade. The only bad thing about Gervais' masterful comedy is that he chose to conclude the series after only two seasons and twelve episodes. This release ensures that audiences all over the world will be able to relive the hilarity for many years to come.
