Now I can see where 'David Brent' got his character.
Ok, I'm not the most avid TV watcher and have missed hell of a lot of the comedy that has come out in the last decade (Had better things to do than sit in front of a box).
Well, I recently signed up to lovefilm on a 90 trial (Thought I would stock up on films etc, then cancel)
I've been watching Fawlty Towers with John Cleese and I'm Alan Partridge and can clearly see every mannerism that is David Brent. I do like Brent, but did think he was unique lol.

Fawlty Towers is fuckin brilliant............. I think that Bazil Fawlty is a much better character that David Brent
