I remember stumbling across the American version but couldn’t bring myself to try and watch it, even if it was good it just wouldn’t be the same. Which I suppose you could say about any new British attempt at a remake. So basically i probably just need to watch the original series again

The Office is still good with both the British version & the American one - when I was working overseas I only saw the American version, was quite surprised when I got over here & found that there was a British version too.

Originally posted by ex hibitionist Ask the Family but Robert Robinson is irreplaceable, Nationwide but Frank Bough is a deceased pervert, I'd have to plump for Indoor League, maybe with Geoffrey boycott as Ray Illingworth and Bernard Ingham are dead, and I can't think of any more professional Yorkshireman. [Link] Off topic, I'm afraid, but mention of that great man reminds me of a radio programme he did, in which he chatted to a small group of men (yes, men) from various trades. On one occasion he had a group of cabbies in, and asked whether people lauded it a bit because they were hiring a taxi. One told a story about a very hoity-toity couple he'd driven: Customer: Okay, cabbie, drive on. Cabbie: Do you mind telling me where you want to go? Customer: Oh for goodness sake. Didn't you hear me? The Savoy. Cabbie: Fine - the Savoy. Do you want the Strand entrance, the River entrance or the staff entrance?!
