The Office Favourite Brent quote: "You can go and fiddle with Neil’s people, but I’m the head of this family. You’re not going to fiddle with my children. I am, if anyone does."
One of my personal favourites. Subtle and flies right under the radar, but bloody hilarious.

Not sure why but there’s something very funny about a well-chosen name. Similar to Sopranos “get Pudgy Walsh on the horn”

So, listen up, I just got in from Aberdeen. And I wanna warn you that you're probably gonna be hearing a lot of rumors, but I can assure you that Stefan Strauss and the rest of the team in Frankfurt are doing everything they can.

'i think there's been a rape up there, GET THEIR ATTENTION!'
And
'ive never come over a little queer' (plus hand gesture...)

Not subtle it’s totally a gag line, it’s too obvious.

Yeah honestly kinda a weak line in my opinion. Seems similar to the kinda humour the American version went for

Not my favourite quote by the way. No, my favourite quote is Mr Sidney Poitier.

Is that my favourite Brent quote is it? Interesting. What's my second favourite Brent quote then? I suppose I like "go get the guitar", and "there's been a rape up there" as well do I?
