Ep 6. Interview

In "The Office" (U.K.) season 2 episode 6 "Interview," the staff at Wernham Hogg are informed that there will be a documentary crew visiting the office to film a documentary about the life of an average office worker. David Brent, the cringeworthy and clueless manager of the branch, is excited to show off his leadership skills and persistent jokes to the cameras.

As the day of filming approaches, the employees are all nervous about what to say and how to act in front of the cameras, except for Tim, who manages to remain sardonic and mostly indifferent. Brent's desperation to be the center of attention leads him to bring in props, such as a guitar and a ukulele, to showcase his musical talents.

Meanwhile, Tim helps Dawn prep for her on-camera interview, and the two grow closer as they discuss their hopes and dreams for the future. Despite the underlying tension between the two of them, they continue to bond and support each other through the stress of their jobs.

When the documentary crew finally arrives, they immediately clash with Brent's excessive bravado and blatant grandstanding. As the crew attempts to capture a typical day in the office, Brent continues to steal the limelight by cracking inappropriate jokes and making insensitive comments about his colleagues.

Throughout the episode, the documentary crew interviews each member of the staff, revealing their sincere hopes, fears, and frustrations with their jobs. Through the interviews, viewers get a glimpse into the inner workings of the office and the lives of its workers.

Overall, "Interview" is a hilarious and cringe-inducing episode that captures the absurdity and mundanity of office life. The tension between the documentary crew and the office workers, combined with Brent's neurotic behavior, make for a truly memorable viewing experience.
