But I don’t quite have the heart to delete it all, so I’ve stuck it here, in a barely visible dankly lit corner of the site. You might get some cheap thrill out of it though, maybe. Somehow.
Two unlreated clips
They went up on the site at the same time, so will be coupled in my mind.
Harry Hill (1.6mb, mov) wonders what Hitler might have done in an office situation, and Gervais gets a run down on “Britain’s Favourite Comedian” (8.5mb, mov)

As successful as it was funny, this page gives the follow-up story to Stuart Foot, the interviewee who never had a chance back in the days of series 1.
It seemed as though not as many people cared about predicting what might happen in the special as I’d thought.
Back in 2002, Ricky Gervais recorded a some special advice for the manager’s whose teams had made it to the FA Cup final. You might notice some old material being recycled here, but then again you might not!
It seems that whenever something good comes along nowadays, it unavoidably comes attached with it’s fair amount of needless rubbish. Don’t take that as a description of this site, because I’ve never tried to get money off you for it. Well, maybe I have, but, well...
The highly unpopular sequel to the Stapler section, lacking in charm, wit and originality. But with added hammer.
What happened when I went to HMV
In a sense, the one page on this site that has the least to do with The Office, but it’s a life affirming and humorous tale.
The Marcus S Payne discovery page
Way back when in early 2002 I guess, this page was a revelation of breaking news, now resurrected here as a reminder of what life was like when the second series was the stuff of a madman’s dreams...
The pages that could have been
I’ve never had trouble thinking of ideas for my humble little site, just good ones. But here’s a look at some of the stuff you’ll never be seeing unless I start getting paid for this little ol' hobby o' mine.

Oh, you need a reason why I didn’t do this? |

dropping a stapler out of an office window ever be fatal? |
To be honest with you, I did find out the answer to this question, and I’d rather not talk about it here. It still hurts. |

Dave Gorman-inspired attempt to find any businessmen working in offices who are unfortunate enough to share David Brent’s name. |

Just how hard is it to throw a kettle over a pub while your mate waits round the back to confirm it? Delayed for the moment. |

As much as The Office is a humorous, and often touching, look at office life and unfulfilled lives, it has arguably had a detrimental effect on those who watch it. This page was going to detail why the show has done more harm than good.
