Episode overview

It’s been more than 15 years since Gareth and Tim from The Office – aka Mackenzie Crook and Martin Freeman – last laid eyes on each other, but the groundbreaking comedy's 25th anniversary has brought them together once again. They share their memories of working, and laughing, alongside Ricky Gervais, co-writer Stephen Merchant and their other leading office colleague Lucy Davis, who played the object of Tim's affections, Dawn. Amongst the anecdotes are the tale of how Martin initially auditioned to play Gareth, how Mackenzie embraced one of TV's worst-ever haircuts, how Ricky came close to ruining filming on a daily basis, and what it was like to be at the heart of 'Office-mania' when the show was at its peak. On top of all that, we get Mackenzie and Martin's views on the American version of the show and find out some of their personal favourite Wernham Hogg moments.
