Quotes

Gareth: That's one reason why gays shouldn't be allowed into the army. Because if we're in battle, is he going to be looking at the enemy, or is he going to be looking at me and going "Ooh. He looks tasty in his uniform". And I'm not homophobic, all right? Come round, look at my CDs. You'll see Queen, George Michael, Pet Shop Boys. They're all bummers.

The Office mistakes

Mistake Continuity: After Gareth hits Tim on the head with his newspaper the following shot shows that the briefcase and newspaper have swapped hands.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene with David and Gareth in David's office, David gives a hole-punch to Gareth as a souvenir. The hole-punch has a guide accessory sticking out of it (to punch holes in the middle of different sizes of paper), which is adjustable. At the beginning of the scene it only sticks out by about 2 cm, but by the time David hands it to Gareth it is about 5 cm - even though no-one has touched it.

Mistake Continuity: During David Brent's dance, towards the end of the dance Rachel laughs. When the camera cuts back to her in the background she is straight-faced.

The Office quotes

David Brent: Hey Chris.

Chris Finch: Yeah?

David Brent: Why don't you fuck off?

David Brent: I don't look upon this like it's the end, I look upon it like it's moving on, you know. It's almost like my work here's done. I can't imagine Jesus going 'Oh, I've told a few people in Bethlehem I'm the son of God, can I just stay here with Mum and Dad now?' No. You gotta move on. You gotta spread the word. You gotta go to Nazareth, please. And that's, very much like... me. My world does not end within these four walls, Slough's a big place. And when I've finished with Slough, there's Reading, Aldershot, Bracknell, you know I've got to... Didcott, Yately. You know. My... Winersh, Taplow. Because I am my own boss, I can... Burfield. I can wake up one morning and go 'Ooh, I don't feel like working today, can I just stay in bed?' 'Ooh, don't know, better ask the boss.' 'David can I stay in bed all day?' 'Yes you can David.' Both me, that's not me in bed with another bloke called David.

David Brent: You just have to accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.

The Office easter eggs

Mistake Go to the special features and go down to 'If you don't know me by now.' Wait until the photocopier starts copying, then press LEFT.

Mistake On the series 1 DVD, allow the main menu to come up on screen. Wait for the menu 'loop' to come to an end. When the menu starts up again, a phone will ring. Press select to get a full length version of 'Free Love Freeway' which was shot for the episode 'Training.'

Mistake The Office (UK) Series 1 DVD, on disc 2: Go to "Deleted Scenes" and choose "'Slough' by John Betjeman". Before the scene plays, there is a description page with a flickering fluorescent light. The screen will go dim for a few seconds just before the deleted scene begins to play. Press 'enter' or 'play' at this point, and the "Who Cares Wins" video from episode 4 will play.
