Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. We'll start it simple. Who plays the anally-retentive 'team leader' Gareth Keenan?

Answer: Mackenzie Crook

Martin Freeman plays Tim Canterbury, and Ewen Macintosh plays the now-cult figure of 'Big Keith' from accounts. If you don't know who Ricky Gervais plays, then this may not be the quiz for you :)
2. Who plays Ricky Howard, the young intern who appears only in series 1?

Answer: Oliver Chris

Ralph Ineson plays Brent's coarse mate Chris Finch, and Joel Beckett plays Dawn's defensive fiance Lee. Vincent Franklin is Rowan, the facilitator for Wernham Hogg's training day.
3. With whom does Ricky have a steamy affair?

Answer: Donna

Brent is none too pleased when he learns of the fling. Donna (Sally Bretton) is another character who is present only in series 1.
4. What nationality is Sanj, the employee David introduces to Ricky (and subsequently insults)?

Answer: Pakistani

Sanj: 'The other what...Paki?' Brent: 'Ah...that's racist.'
5. Who created the lewd picture of Brent with his head on a woman's body?

Answer: Finch

Gareth was appointed to investigate the matter, a role he took way too seriously. Tim was named by Gareth as the culprit, before it was revealed, to the embarrassment of Brent, that his good mate Chris Finch was the real perpetrator.
6. How old is Tim on his birthday (the one that coincides with the quiz night)?

Answer: 30

Yes, but God forbid birthday drinks interrupt the quiz in any way: 'We gotta be ready to go at seven...'
7. Which English comedy duo does Brent compare himself and Finch to?

Answer: Morecambe and Wise

'...actually not Morecambe and Wise, 'cos there's no straight man, so there's no dead wood...' He mentions Reeves and Mortimer in the first episode: 'We're like Vic and Bob, aren't we? And...and one extra one.'
8. Which band once supposedly opened for Brent's band 'Foregone Conclusion'?

Answer: Texas

'I couldn't, you know, do what...actually I could do what they do, and I think they knew that even back then. Probably what spurred them on.'
9. Who does Brent unintentionally give a black eye?

Answer: Karen

He trips over a football and headbutts his newly appointed assistant in the face. She is later seen at Chasers with a fairly substantial black eye.
10. What is the name of the trade magazine that does a feature on Brent?

Answer: 'Inside Paper'

He is named UK manager of the month. So obsessed is he with this minor accolade that he keeps an 18-month-old copy of the magazine with his photo on the front to show to people.
11. Who plays former regional manager of the Swindon branch (now Brent's boss) Neil Godwin?

Answer: Patrick Baladi

Superior to Brent in every way, and doesn't Brent love it. Note: to all those who chose Stirling Gallacher: Ms. Gallacher, who plays Jennifer Taylor-Clarke, is not amused.
12. Which member of the Swindon staff is confined to a wheelchair?

Answer: Brenda

Poor Brenda (Julie Fernandez) is constantly being subjected to mangled attempts at diplomacy from Brent. He also leaves her stranded in the stairwell during a fire drill.
13. What is Dawn's dream job?

Answer: Children's illustrator

Brent dismisses this as a 'pipe dream'.
14. What does Brent call his revolutionary new management style?

Answer: Team individuality

'Again, guilty, unorthodox - sue me.' The man is a visionary.
15. What company do Ray and Jude represent?

Answer: Cooper and Webb Consultants

Brent immediately fires out, 'Who's Cooper and who's Webb?' Neither one is named Cooper or Webb. By the way, the other three options I just made up using the surnames of minor cast members. Just thought I'd mention that :)
16. How much money does Brent earn from his motivational speech?

Answer: £300

He offers Dawn £100 to be his assistant, although he instantly regrets such a high offer.
17. IT technician Simon wears a T-shirt bearing the logo of which liquor?

Answer: Jack Daniel's

Ah, Simon. The most lovably loathsome character to grace this show; more obnoxious than Gareth (who loves him), and a source of entertainment (and annoyance) for Tim.
18. What prank does Tim NOT play on Gareth?

Answer: Handcuff him to his desk

The kiss is a one in a million moment. There's a great screenshot in the script book (which is where I'm getting most of my information).
19. Whose father makes a cameo appearance in both series 1 and series 2?

Answer: Stephen Merchant

You probably already know that Lucy Davis' father is comedian Jasper Carrott. Ron Merchant, father of co-writer and Oggmonster Stephen Merchant, plays Gordon, the maintenance man who is struck dumb every time the camera is on him.
20. The company name is Wernham Hogg; what is the first name of Mr Wernham?

Answer: Bertie

Brent briefly mentions the company founder in the training day episode (not by name, mind you - that's where the script book comes in handy). Devil's in the detail, friends. Hope you enjoyed the quiz.
