We only ended up sympathising with David because he becomes the underdog after being exposed and losing his job. I remember prior to his fall I was wishing for his fall.

Wasting Stuart foots time, and Karen Ropers time because ultimately she had to go. Neil from what we saw of him wouldn’t concern himself with impressing a young woman. When a boss is desperate to be liked there’s no consistency. I guess it is each to his own as I have my own friends and social life, so when I go to work I laugh at all the gossip and love the fact that I’m no ones mate.
