I stumbled upon this British series, and loved it. Having seen the American knockoff with the same name, I can confirm what other have already said, the British original is hillarious! (but sadly the accent is so hard to follow without subtitles).

Gareth, as a self righteous ex-miliatary assistant (to) manager, make the whole show shine. And then there is Ricky Gervais whose timing, both as the director and actor, is impecable. They take themselves so seriously that its so funny to watch. Seriously funny, but not in a Larry David way, but great fun nevertheless.

5/5
