It's open to various interpretations, but I see it as a fantastic moment of pathos. So poignant. He tries to find two faults in her... but fails. Anthony's got a crush on Christine - he might even think that he loves her - but it's a secret, fragile, unrequited love. She's always there, but if he reveals his feelings for her and she rejects him, he'll be crushed. Better to say nothing and continue to dream. The tragedy is that the idiocy of the mock-Scientology 'auditing' experiment forces him to confront her before he's ready, leaving him completely humiliated. It's a wonderful bit of grown-up writing. Poor Anthony. Who knows what might have happened next week if this hadn't occurred. Now he's cold and alone and facing a bleak future. It's a terrible thing, living without hope. Still, that's office life for you, eh? A great big steaming pile of ... :-)

It is the best produced satire ever. no short cuts. Glorious

Armando Iannucci and Chris Morris teamed up with other talents to make this show such a classic (they did so a few years before this in 1992 on the radio show 'On The Hour' which became this TV show 2 years later) Everything after this that Armando Iannucci and Chris Morris have done is a work of genuis too (most of it individually) Armando Iannucci - did such classics as 'The Armando Iannucci Shows' , Time Trumpet, The Thick Of It etc Chris Morris - did Brass Eye (TV), Blue Jam (on radio) . The Chris Morris Music Shows (on radio) Jam (on TV) , Nathan Barley on TV and his movies Four Lions and The Day Shall Come They are both absolute legends and masters in my eyes and their work is the best thing ever this last 30 years or so.

The locomotive seen here is the Class 40 locomtive D306, which was renamed 'Atlantic Conveyor' in 1984 after the ship sunk during the Falklands war. D306 also featured in the re-enactment of the Great Train Robbery which occurs in the 1987 movie 'Buster'. She currently belongs to the Severn Valley Railway where she still works today. In 1994, when The Day Today was filmed, she would have had the running number 40106 if she had still been in service. But because she was taken out of service in 1983 she was restored to her pre-TOPS 1960s running number, which is why she wrongly appears as D306 in this clip.
