People Like Us: Series 1
An inspired, award-winning spoof documentary series, pre-dating 'The Office' that follows hapless (and virtually unseen) filmmaker Roy Mallard (the brilliant Chris Langham) as he makes six short films about 'people like us'; featuring among others a fictional estate agent, headmaster, police officer and photographer. If David Brent and Alan Partridge are your thing, then this is a gem not to be missed.
