7. Who said this? "Now guys, we're about to enter a warehouse environment, now I must warn you that some of the people in here will be working class."

Answer: Tim

He said this as a joke in series 2, episode 3. He didn't seem to make the joke in a snobby way, he is just playing on what he thinks is the typical warehouse stereotype.

8. Which one of these is NOT a nickname for one of Gareth's friends?

Answer: Keano

Keano is Gareth's nickname. We find out the other nicknames in series 2, episode 6. The 'Oggmonster' is played by Stephen Merchant, co-writer of 'The Office'.

Answer: Tim

He said this in series 2, episode 4, when Rachel decided to go out with Tim. Gareth is resentful due to the fact that he liked Rachel from the moment he met her and even told Tim to back off.

10. Finally, what Bee Gees' song was playing when Neil was dancing with Rachel at the Comic Relief party?

Answer: "More than a Woman"

David seemed very jealous at this and promptly did his own hilarious dance in series 2, episode 5. in my opinion this moment is one of the funniest moments on tv.
