The show was filmed at Teddington Studios though not actually in any of their studio spaces. It was filmed in their office building which is adjacent to the TV studios.

The cleaner who always stands motionless and looks directly at the camera is creator/director Stephen Merchant's father.

At the beging of the first episode in series 1, David is seen hiring a man for a forklift drivers job. The same man is being fired by David at the beging of episode 6 series 1.

David Brent: Is this why you're around all the time? Keeping tabs on me? I don't need a babysitter, you know, so...

Gareth: All right then Einstein if you're so clever, what am I thinking about now?

David Brent: There are limits to my comedy. There are things that I'll never laugh at. The handicapped. Because there's nothing funny about them. Or any deformity. It's like when you see someone look at a little handicapped and go 'ooh, look at him, he's not able-bodied. I am, I'm prejudiced.' Yeah, well, at least the little handicapped fella is able-minded. Unless he's not, it's difficult to tell with the wheelchair ones.
