Who is David Brent?

David Brent photo
At the start of "The Office" David Brent is the Regional Manager of the Slough branch of the paper company Wernham-Hogg. Things soon go downhill for him, when his office merges with the Swindon branch the other manager is made his boss and then he is eventually fired and has to become a travelling salesman to make ends meet.

David Brent is an annoying man, who tells bad jokes and fails to get respect from his staff. He is an inept, egotistical, hypocritical, lying, two-faced, gauche individual, who constantly finds disaster and makes enormous faux-pas. If you look deeper, you see a rather lonely man, who lies to himself about how popular and talented he is.

Played perfectly by award-winning Ricky Gervais, the character of David Brent has very quickly become a sitcom favourite and almost a classic. The truth is there are so many people just like Brent he probably struck a cord with most of the audience.

Jennifer Taylor-Clark: I know that you're very loyal to your family here.
David Brent: I'd be loyal to his family, it's one big family.
Jennifer Taylor-Clark: I'm just sensitive to the fact that you have strong, let's say emotional ties to your team.
David Brent: Well, yeah, but there is the emotion as good in business syndrome, sure, notwithstanding the cruel to be kind scenarios...
Jennifer Taylor-Clark: I'm sorry David, you've lost me.
David Brent: Well, you're not looking at the whole pie Jenny. Wernham-Hogg is one big pie, and if they've let me in charge of that one big pie, then I'll be in charge of the pie, and the people are the fruit...
Jennifer Taylor-Clark: I don't have time for the pie thing David.
David Brent: Yeah, oh, well I'll take the job please.
Unknown Episode Unknown Episode:

David Brent: I don't live by "The Rules" you know, and if there's one person who has influenced me in that way of thinking, someone who is a maverick, someone who does 'that' to the system then it's Ian Botham.
