The American version of hit UK comedy The Office only just finished this year after 9 seasons, but our original Office, created by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, has been gone for 10 years now. Never the less, Gervais refuses to let his character of David Brent go dormant for too long.
His webseries; "Learn the Guitar with David Brent", has proven to be very popular with fans of "cringe" comedy, and I also bet he isn't oblivious to the money Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa is currently bringing in from the theatres. Gervais is already trying to wrangle a music contract for David Brent, who doesn't actually exist remember, off the back of "Learn the Guitar", and the next inevitable step for him is a full feature length mockumentary.
