Anybody else watch "The Office"?

I watched a couple of episodes at the end of the last series and loved it, I wouldn't have thought that a spoof fly on the wall would have been so funny. The new series started this week on BBC2 and it seems to be continuing in the same vein, if you've ever worked in an office, I think you'll appreciate it. See Media Guardian Article

It is sublime. Saw the entire first series a couple of times. Absolute comic genius.
To my crushing dismay I rushed in from work after a very busy day to catch the first episode just aired of the new series and promptly fell asleep. Missed virtually the entire thing.
Must be my age.
Any repeats scheduled soon that you know of?

Not aware of any 2old, but at least with this series it doesn't matter if you miss one, you can jump in at any point.

Youre in luck 2Old if Cloud Cuckoo land has access via an unfeasibly large Terrestrial aerial pointing towards the Emerald Isle

*er, or are you just please to see me

my tip* would be to try and get the early week show as its followed I think by the sit com Coupling.

Always guaranteed to make me laugh until it hurts (and this week it has the delectable Emilia Fox as Wilma, who is playing not so hard to get.)

*always pleased to see you

This is the best thing on tv.Ricky Gervais is a geniusO-Ha God knows how they keep a straight face filming this one.Monday night tv is brilliant at the moment with Alan partridge and also the repeats of That Peter kay thing You can keep all your Fraziers and Friends...British comedy is the BEST.

Yep, I think you're right, but we make a lot of duff programmes before we get to a couple of good ones.

It's restored my faith in arseholes.
