Extras - guest stars


  Samuel L. Jackson

Top grossing filmstar Samuel L. Jackson said; "I'm a huge fan of 'The Office'. Ricky and I have met several different times and had fun together, so when he told me about the show, and what he was trying to do, I was immediately like 'Ok, I can do that!'"

Ricky says; "...he is officially the coolest man on the planet"
  Kate Winslet

Kate Winslet shot to fame and a second Oscar nomination as Rose in the disaster-romance Titanic. Before and since she has played an impressively eclectic range of parts in film and the theatre. She is known to enjoy challenging roles, which is just as well.


  Ben Stiller

As a comedy writer, actor and director, Ben Stiller has something to do with most big American comedies - most recently he reprised his role as Greg Focker in 'Meet The Fockers', a sequel to 'Meet The Parents'. He also starred in the recent Starsky & Hutch remake.


  Les Dennis

A household name thanks to stints on The Laughter Show, Family Fortunes and more recently Celebrity Big Brother. Les is fondly remembered for all of his catchphrase.


  Ross Kemp

TV hard man Ross Kemp brings a brooding menace to every part he plays. An Eastenders stalwart as Grant Mitchell for years, he's recently been seen in the remake of Spartacus with that doctor off of ER.


  Patrick Stewart

A giant of stage and screen, Patrick Stewart is best known to most as the captain of the Enterprise in Star Trek and latterly as Professor X in the hit 'X-Men' movies.
