That clip sums up your average corporate office in the UK. Full of uncomfortable smirks, impatience and what I like to call 'polite rudeness'. Office smirking is done in a very condescending way. Unfortunately, I've had too many years of experience working with these corporate types.

I imagine this was George Osbourne when he joined Blackrock for £650k for one day a week.

I swear to god, this is exactly what it was like when i got my first office job after finishing my a levels.

[@lendus.adolla]

I remember asking someone on the first day of a new job, just to break the silence, as I was sat at my desk with as yet, nothing to do. I said to the guy at the desk next to me. "What's the most important job in here". He stopped what he was doing, put his pen down and turned to me with a serious and thoughtful look and said "Well, the most important job in here...is to escape a bollocking for as long as possible"!

I didn't think I would ever feel sorry for Tony Blair.

[@keyboarddancers7751]

Exquisite observational comedy and also incredibly insulting to Blair; couldn't be better!

[@silversynth]

What's sad is working in a bank is exactly like that. The most boring snob competition you can ever endure.

[@struanmurray2291]

This could be it's own entire TV show I swear 😂

[@wolfie498]

I want to see Paul Whitehouse in a lead role, big film. He's so under rated as an actor.

[@Willo29O592]

...is that jack whitehall?

[@ianaspinall7948]

I loved how Harry and Paul developed from being a decent catchphrase run of the mill sketch show to some of the best observational comics going. I like all their stuff but the later stuff is their best by a mile

[@user-lx3oi6xy2e]

I love it when he recaps the coffee orders, in a bid to still try and sound important haha.

[@js5584]

I moved from the UK in '98 and have not watched Enfield's "more recent" material. This is absolute gold.

[@metafis2490]

Not only is this very funny, the acting is really good, especially Paul Whitehouse!.

[@thomashamilton564]

That's a very young Jack Whitehall

Rory Jennings finding tony Blair stuff to do, how times have changed

[@schizoafekt]

Polish and English former prime ministers become "bankers", Greek and Italian bankers become "democratic elected prime ministers".

[@barnabylowe1239]

When he takes his jacket off as if he’s still the PM quality

[@bareminimumbrother3980]

Tony did the same to our country as he did to that pile of mail.

[@adambrickley1119]

Is that Big Suze in the boardroom? Definitely to posh for Jez.
