  • Genuinely think this is the best love story of the 21st century. It's so damn real.

  • I also love how Dawn isn't some stunning, model-like girl with an exaggerated perky personality. She's just a decent girl that connects really well with Tim. It's realistic, the only onscreen relationship that I really really rooted for.

  • The U.S office is great to watch because theres so many episodes, although the U.K office is so complex and in my opinion a million times better. Both good shows but the U.K office seems like reality where as the U.S seems more slapstick

  • I think the Jim and Pam storyline was really good in the earlier seasons when it was a lot more like Tim and Dawn's. Seems to lack the tension and any real substance now they're married and live happily ever after .. blah blah blah. For what it's worth by the way, I'm a big fan of both the UK and US versions, and I love to critically compare them without arrogant remarks..

  • makes me smile :)

  • A great love story -

  • One of the greatest love stories of all time imo

  • @mc11kenna IA with you....I think they were one of the most rooted for (non)couple in a tv show in UK during 2001-2003

  • martin might be the cutest thing that ever was.

  • @ashtronomyy He's like a little teacup pig. Adorable, and tiny. Teacup Martin. :3

  • what Episodes are

    3:52

    1:39

    0:18?

    Thank you

  • i must admit i do wonder whether its a difference between "british humor" and "american humor" that makes me like the US office so much more. The American office can be really uncomfortable but I find it hilarious, too. Whilst 95% of the time I watch the UK office i just feel super uncomfortable. is it the familiarity of characters/caricatures??? im just saying i find it an interesting question.

    @daythemusicdied42 i agree, love both tim and jim. pam gets to be funnier though for sure.

  • I HAD TO STOP WATCHING HALF A MINUTE INTO IT BECAUSE OF THE OVERDRAMATIC SONG YOUV USED TO RUIN THIS VIDEO

  • I'm a grown man and it takes a lot for a television program to make me well up but that Christmas special gets me every time. Just the bit in the taxi, the water colours, the kiss.. Perfection. I have to watch it alone because of my macho embarrassment :(

  • I'm new to the U.S version of The Office but one thing I like about about Pam in the U.S version is that she gets more comedic lines and is actually very funny. I'd still probably say I prefer the original British version as a whole but I reckon a lot of people that slate the American Office haven't ever watched a series, or even an episode. It's very different but there are some great moments.

  • personally i prefer pam over dawn, but tim and jim are at a tie with me :)

  • Tim/Dawn was one of the most subtle/emotional relationships I've ever seen on tv, it may be a bit dramatic but I almost cried at the end of the last episode.

    British tv at its best:)

  • you need to be smart and a critical thinker to love the UK office. Sadly the american comedy industry has dumbed alot of people down. The cant appreciate the awesomeness of british humour. Glad i'm an aussie :)

  • Oh God...do we nead all the nationaist bollocks? Just shut up. - It was good programme, wasn't it? that's it.

  • touching ending of the series. i love both, but the uk version is just so damn raw and real.

  • i love tim and dawns story, to me its more realistic than pam and jim

  • Cool video. I enjoy the BBC Office and the American version. Big fan of both.

  • Hello, new viewer the UK Office. wat episode is 1:43?

  • by the way before u lot slag americans off (and im english) remember they produce more genuine talent than britain usually ever does.

  • @MrPaulc23...really? like whom?

  • @MrPaulc23 don't need quantity when you have quality (and im french). Besides on a ration genuine talent/inhabitants, not sure what the result would be :D

    Oh, and by the way : two different countries with two different talents.

  • @MrPaulc23 bollocks

  • I love both pam/jim and tim/dawn. But I think in the UK version, the couple has less hollywood glamor and looks like the people around us.

  • Pam is way hotter!

  • I think Tim and Dawn's chemistry is a lot more realistic than Jim and Pam's in the American version. But it is probably a cultural thing. I'm Finnish, and Finns are more like Brits in that aspect.

  • I'm so grateful to The Office UK, because without it there wouldn't be an american office :)

  • One of my favorite tv love stories, thank you for sharing this with us :)

  • Love the BBC original, but Tim & Dawn just never seemed to have the same genuine chemistry that their Jim & Pam equivalents did on the American version.

  • @icecastles I agree but that's a kind of British thing i suppose, them awkward moments followed up by a fake smile and just get on with it attitude is kind of typical here, the thing that caught my eye in American version for me was indeed the relationship between Jim and Pam, although i find now there together and life's all drama free and normal it's getting a bit boring and repetitive.

  • @TheSaintAza I completely agree. The 7th season is a bit better, but it really doesn't have the spark it used to. It's sad that so many great British comedies have such short runs, but at least they don't milk them for every last gag and penny like on the US networks.

  • @icecastles Actually, that's what Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant planned. Tell the story and GET OUT. Great show, but a few more episodes would have been nice. Ended perfectly, tho, with Brent telling Finch where to get off and Tim and Dawn FINALLY! getting together.

  • It's always annoying when someone claims others work as their own because the do some quick editing.

    On a side note, I've never seen the American Office. However, I don't see how realistically it can run for 7 or 8 or however many series it has done. The UK Office was short and sweet.

  • @MattyGkid tell you how its still running. its running on the comedic genius of steve carell and the occasionally funny contributions of jim and dwight. once carell goes itll slowly burn and come to an end unfortunately. shame cus the american one is better than the uk one

  • I really like your video, nice cut and i love the song :)

    Tim/Dawn are one of my absolute favourite TV-Series couples...

    Thanks for the vid!

  • Theres a british Pam and Jim? Lol ew

  • @Littlereble *sigh*

  • The 'um she said no, by the way' scene was just heartbreaking. I actually cried when they finally got together. When she opened the secret santa present in the car, while Tim is talking about her being the ray of sunlight in his life, that was so moving. What a great show.

  • awesome show... awesome vid! SO touching... and the song nails it! Thanks! :-)

    

  • That's a brilliant vid and upload sir/madam

    Those two are fantastic actors

    American friends, ignore the haters, please.

  • Why doesn't everyone stop these Britain vs American fights? They're both good, American version is funnier, UK version is more realistic. There

  • i love this vid, so touching..i love dawn and tim,

    and when she rejects him i like cried...

    and then i cried when they got together, i love the office :)

  • well in america everything always tries to be so perfect, and all the actors are extremely well taken care off...and thats ironically so not real...Americans are the most fat and ygly humans in the world..lol

  • @The2010Generation I agree with you on that one. I am not American but I have been in the US for university for a couple years and I have to admit the average person looks nothing like the tv shows or movie stars. I managed to finish the British version earlier this week--it was great. Once I got pass the plain-Jane colours and "blahness" of the actors I really enjoyed it. The acting was very real, not forced at all and it all came together nicely=)

  • @The2010Generation lol, dude, did you ever watch the american office? omg that fat guy, that gay guy, that weird boss, that old pervert... omg dude, if you say that in the american office, they are all perfect, think again!

  • Great video and the song suits perfectly. The relationship between Tim and Dawn was so touching and beautiful. I can fall in tears just thinking about that last scene.

  • hey can anyone tell me the progression of TIm and Dawn's relationship? I love th U.S version, and Jim and Pam. Do these two get together? is Dawn engaged like Pam? Anyone's who's seen both, what are the differences between both couples?

  • @princessrissy94 In answer to your questions, yes, Dawn is engaged like Pam, and there are a lot of similarities between tim/dawn and jim/pam, but's there's also a few differences. For example, when Dawn heads off to America with her fiance, it's three years before Tim finally sees her again in the xmas specials. And Tim and Dawn do get together, but only at the very end of the series. The whole show though is only 14 episodes long in total, so you can watch the whole story pretty quickly.

  • thanks so much! i'm going to watch the british version i think. I LOVE the american version, and the british version is supposed to better so i'm definitely going to see it!

  • The British version is soo much better but it's because it's not watered down at all - like Bud Lite vs Guiness Stout. A lot of pop culture references are a bit mysterious to us Yanks and the pace is slower (like real life) but it's a lot more rewarding experience seeing it all in the end.

  • I just finished watching The Office (the real one). I too was a fan of the American version, but the UK one may be simply the most beautiful show ever produced. The characters on the US one, though entertaining, are like 2 dimensional pieces of paper next to the flesh and blood of the UK Office staff. At it's core, it's a show about "love," and I was sad to come to the end. I will miss the people of Wernham-Hogg terribly, and envy anyone about to embark on the journey I just completed

  • really good video - gets the emotions going ;-)

    they make a great couple!

  • Hi mate, great video, great choice of music, great British acting and writing. Makes me feel good.

  • just getting into office UK..... great video!!!

  • Well, you patriotic american, the british Office was aired before the american Office, where did you think they got the idea from?

  • @thefirestorm10t NBC didn't get the idea from the UK office, they bought the rights to it, so did the French and a few other countries. Peronally I like both.

  • @thefirestorm10t  yea this song is from america

  • @thefirestorm10t

    As an American, I apologize for some of my countrymen. i love both versions! they are similar and different in wonderful ways.

  • @thefirestorm10t what do you mean got the idea from? it's made by the same people. herpa derp

  • Comment removed

  • oh and when she opens the secret santa in the car, I cried, I actually cried :'D

  • @leon44isdabest ur not alone there. :)

  • @leon44isdabest I cried 8 times that day, I swear.

  • :'D the best on screen romance ever,

    best moment was when Lee was saying Dawn would get her tits out for a tenner, and the look on Tim's face... so sad

  • vtech just kicked in oaahhhh

  • I love it when Tim and Dawn finally get it together.

  • Good choice of music

  • So nice to see flirting at work, nowadays you let it be known that you fancy someone at work and the fear of sexual harassment ensues. Its a shame but this is good to see. I have seen a lot of TV romances, but Tim and Dawn's was the best.

  • I've always been a big fan of Jim and Pam's relationship on the american version of The Office, but in the UK's version of The Office Special Part 2 where Tim gives his speech about happy endings... man that was such a good clip.

  • wow i didn't realize how similar the us/uk versions were. like where roy came into the office and pushed jim off pam. and that happened here too

  • good video!

  • Brilliant, I especially love how amateur the camera is, gives it a real life feel, and makes it seem like its ordinary people (: brilliant!

  • I think Tim and Dawn are so beautiful! They are my favourit couple on the tv screen :) Their love looks so real :D

  • (: 100% agreed

  • It's sad how Dawn let herself be pushed around by Lee when she knew exactly how she felt for Tim :(

  • I loved this. It was sad, but it was a beautiful ending. Two people, as someone said, not exactly handsome or beautiful, but their personalities shine and make this such a winning romance.

  • This was gorgeous.  Loved it.

  • I think what I liked about this on-screen romance was the fact that neither Tim nor Dawn were perfectly beautiful people but were real actors and came across like real people and that's what made it engaging.

  • when did they randomly kiss? when did that happen?

  • they were doing this thing at work to raise money and dawn was giving a kiss for a pound. that was the first one

    but the second kiss at the end was when dawn realized that tim was the man she wanted and it was in the christmas special episode

  • isnt this beautiful. TRUE LOVE FOR SURE. i know 2 people that are EXACTLY LIKE THIS AND SOOOOOOO MENT TO BE TOGETHER XX

  • i love Tim and Dawn

    :D

  • can someone tell me the name of the band as well as the name of the song? thank you

  • Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

  • Best show ever this was i miss it. Great vid and song thanks

  • i absolutely love this show. i watch the DVD's alllll the time. i'm so pissed they are no longer doing it anymore

  • great vid good job :0)

  • I never wanted anything more than to see these 2 together.

  • I was rooting for them the WHOLE time!!!!!

  • Stop bitching and enjoy the video.

    Tim and Dawn forever!

  • We all love stereotypes because it makes us feel like we understand a certain type of people when, in actuality we no little. But maybe you shouldn't trust anything that I've written because, after all, I am an American.

  • Americans are fake? I'm not sure what you mean by that. If you're talking about the two Offices, I think they're both so different completely different... they're different approaches to humor in my opinion. And I love them both. But if you're talking about American people in general, I think that statement is really silly. To me, that's like saying all Brits have a stick up their ass. (continued...)

  • Beautiful, video...very touching. You perfectly captured that little bubble Tim and Dawn were in when they were together, the song's lyrics capture that too.

  • thank you for the video

    it's touchingly beautiful

  • jasper carrots daughter

    i thinks shes hot

  • I'm sorry to say that Yes Americans are fake, but so is 99.99% of the people you meet, everyone of you is run by your Ego so stop hating becuase of what county you were born of or live in its not always are choice, so in conclusion i love this show better then the U.S. version and im from the states, they are totally dif'rent in how the write and act, but both are great. Plus my favourit band is Coldplay and there not from U.S. but I still love my Country (Excluding President and his choices)

  • what a post. sheer poetry.

  • I don't say "LOL" often, but... LOL roversrule87.

  • wow, American's are fake?

    you obviously know some shitty Americans. Get your facts straight.

  • The British couple are more special because Americans are always fake in everything they say and do. I love Dawn, she is beautiful. What is the name of the song? Beautiful song and beautiful couple.

  • Beautiful!

  • i love tim and dawn best kiss ever!

  • i really liked the way u did that video...

  • lovely video.....i feel all warm inside aahhhh

  • This was amazing, didn't think a music video could capture how perfect this relationship is but it really did. Love the bits of speech as well.

  • I havent seen this show at all, but I like these clips to the music.

    Dawn looks like a normal woman, not pencil thin. Very romantic song!!!!!

  • oh my god, this is amazing!

  • Well done, that was really great! x

  • Great video! Love the show!

  • i cried when tim and dawn fianly got together at the end no plot line has ever drawn you in so much - it was simply amazing, when she drew him that picture and he wrote that note on it to her- wow - it was magical - miss this show but have to say the end - left me content enough - hope they do another one - xxxx

  • omg!your vid is so cool and sweet i love these 2!i love the song too!5 stars!n_n

  • Wow awesome, so many comments and almost none of them referring to my vid. You should all just join a forum and argue there.

  • @rintincom agreed. and for the record, I really like this vid! Great song and clip choices :) You should make one for meredith and derek from ga lol

  • @rintincom fuck off u fuckin freak

  • The Office (UK) was a love story for Men... It (the show) was realistic, heartbreaking, hilarious, and just plain perfect. I can't think of another tv series which could do what the UK Office has done, make me feel for David, Tim and Dawn. Beautifully written, acted and directed, the UK office Rules and I will fight anybody who disagress with that.

  • you took the words right out of my mouth EhteshaamTheProudMus

  • And by the way this was beautiful

  • she is the cutest thing on the planet....

    she doesnt need to change a single speck!

  • I think she's stunning =)

  • I think that's what makes the show more realistic. These people aren't supermodels, they're regular people.

  • They were such an amazing couple.

  • excellent vid

    shitty song..

    tim and dawn forever..

    yaaye for love...

    =)

  • Tim and Dawn are the greatest couple ever!

  • I love both versions. I don't think one's really better than the other; I laugh at both and love all the characters equally.

  • The acting by these two is awesome both very talented, you would think it was real life at times. Well done great song too

  • I love Tim!

    Cutee <3

  • Completely agree! :)

  • I don't like them... no chemistry, like Jim and Pam have.

  • What a load of crap you talk, who the hell are Jim and Pam anyway they would'nt be here without Dawn and tim's chemistry. Get A Life

  • I agree totally.

  • Are you blind? Have you seen the show? They have the best chemistry EVER and it's completely natural!!

  • Amazing amazing amazing amazing.

    Brilliant. Brings me to tears everytime.

  • Tim & Dawn layed the foundation. But Jim & Pam made some of the most entertaining Televison I will ever see.

  • The US Office is nothing like the UK office, it's like 22 episodes a year versus 6! Everything is different, and JIM is American, where TIM is British, and that changes everything! All the actors have done a fantastic job, but the Tim/Dawn story is just classic, a totally unique moment in TV history.

  • the acting between these two was some of the best i have ever seen in any show

  • I love the UK Version of the Office, although I haven't watched the US version. Ricky Gervais is God, though ;)

  • Do you even watch the UK Office?

  • just youtube clips... but, you know us yanks.... we think we're better than everyone else.... j/k..... guess i'm just accustomed to our version. i may go to the Border's book store and purchase the bbc version of the show. Peace! :)

  • From one Yank to another, I'm just letting you know the UK version is 10 times better! I have seen the US version, but it's just not as good! Let me know what you think of it!!! :)

  • If you haven't seen the original version you have missed out.This translates very poorly I imagine.

    It brims with cringe making reality.

  • The UK version is hard to understand. It's British humor. I'm not from there so I don't pick up on their jokes. I wish I could. Sometimes I have to put the subtitles on! :O I will say one thing, I saw the episode where Ricky went on a blind date and saw his date and said, "aw for fucks sake" I never laughed so hard. That dude rocks.

  • i'm glad that NBC has claimed copyright infringement...let me just watch the UK version all night long!!!

  • Ricky Gervais helped to creat both. So nothing was stolen. Both the US and the UK are fantastic. It's really all subjective depending on where you live.

    Who we really should be debating are the people who don't even like either show. Really, those are the people missing out.

  • Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant

  • Great editing. Nice Vid. Forget the wasters debating the US v UK thing, they obviously need something to moan about.

  • Don't see why every Office vid has to turn into a debate! Both shows are greats, and both shows are COMPLETLY DIFFERENT from each other. They're just different shows, different humor, etc.

    But this is about this video, not a huge debate. I really liked this video! It showed their relationship wonderfully. Good job! :]

  • nicely done

  • I like pam better ;). I saw the US version first, and then the UK version while normally I like the more subtle humor in the British. With the office I kinda like the over the top humor more. And just the whole atmosphere in the US version is more appealing to me. Season 3 with the brands merging was just brilliant. The UK version is not bad, maybe better but it is a matter of taste. By the way I am european.

  • Wow shut up both are very good, ive seen both and they are both very funny. So people need to stop arguing because THE OFFICE is just amazing all over.

  • wtf...seriously?

  • Dawn Tinsley......that girl is so gorgeous,

  • the UK version should get the credit for being the original humorous show. Tim and dawn love story is much more amazing & natural. And of course David Brent is incomparable! He don't have to try hard to be so funny like michael scott. well.. both versions are brilliant! but i PREFER the UK version better...though

  • Yeah, The US version cannot compare, the UK is better in almost every way.

  • I love how the UK characters are so normal looking...barring Gareth/Dwight, everyone got a whole lot more classically good-looking for the US version.

    I didn't take to the US version during the first season, but it's gotten a lot better lately. We'll see how they keep the romance going if Jim and Pam actually get together. I hope they don't pull a 'Northern Exposure' and ruin it all.

  • The U.S. Office TOTALLY Missed the point..... They made it look like a 'sitcom',WRONG... Ricky and Mr Merchant spent alot of time, money and effort, making it look like a 'Fly on the wall' documentary....LIKE IT WAS MEANT TO BE...Yet again,people copying stuff and not quite knowing what to do with it....

  • Then again it could be that they didn't really miss the point per se, maybe they just liked the idea for the show and wanted to do something different with it.

  • No actully they did. The original was so great because it was so realistic and understated. That went outof the window with the US version which is a bog-standard sitcom.

  • totally agree, shat me to tears watching the US version, its like they dont understand the humor or just cant act in that style.

  • No, you are missing the point. The U.S. version is funny on its own terms. You Brits can't have it both ways. You can't criticize the U.S. show for copying the UK show AND making changes. Which is it?

    Yes, the U.S. version isn't as subtle or realistic, and they don't really stick to the documentary theme enough. But that doesn't mean its not funny. Yes, the U.S. cast is better looking. But they're still likable.

  • dammm the pam UK is fat

  • She's cute.

  • What the hell are you talking about?

  • how can the office US compare to this?

    I mean really.

    The Office UK was a unique blend
