Review of David Brent: Life on the Road (2016) by Lindsay E — 04 Oct 2017

Gervais and Merchant willingly ending the very successful "The Office" after just two seasons (plus the two specials) and not really revisiting it ever since is a feat. More than a decade later Gervais slips back into Brent: different premise, environment and supporting roles; same insane amount of cringe.

It's fun and quick-paced and Brent having a few more years on his back seems to have changed him slightly, though Gervais doesn't really have many, if any, new observations to make about him.
