Do you prefer the UK or US version of The Office?
It’s been 25 years since the original series first aired.
THE BRITISH VERSION of The Office marked its 25th anniversary this week.
The mockumentary series was originally was created by comedians Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, with Gervais taking on the lead role of David Brent across its 14 episodes.
The series went on to inspire a US adaptation of the same name, which starred Steve Carell as Michael Scott and enjoyed a much longer 201-episode run.
As what happens with many television remakes, viewers have long debated which version of the show was ultimately better.
