THE OFFICE AUSTRALIA
FROM FRIDAY 18 OCTOBER, PRIME VIDEO COMEDY
Socially-awkward manager David Brent is one of the greatest comedy creations in TV history. So reimagining Ricky Gervais’ infamous character for an Australian version of The Office sounds a daunting prospect for any actor.
However, when TV Times books an exclusive meeting with star Felicity Ward at a posh London hotel to talk about the project, she’s excited about putting a fresh spin on the nightmare boss with her role as hapless managing director Hannah Howard.
‘At first, I wondered why they were remaking it,’ shares the comedian, 44, ahead of the eight-parter’s launch on Prime Video this week. ‘But when they told me they wanted a woman as the lead, I thought it made sense. After all, if you’re going to redo something after more than 20 years, you have to have a pretty serious point of difference from the original!’

He's not quite so smug now, though, is he? The money, it transpired, belonged to Harvey Gaskell, Damon's brother, and the incarcerated gangster wants it back. With interest.
