I love this show.
And on the Office vs Extras debate; they're uncomparable. Both shows are in a totally different league.
Sure, Gervais plays a Brent-esque role, but in this he's the little guy, the pawn in the show. Extras has a more "sitcom/series" related approach, where the Office was a docu-soap-comedy sort of thing.
They're entirely different.
I'd say they both sit on the same level in terms of comedy, but there is no comparison.
"I think you look quite dapper."
"It's a Nazi uniform."
The whole scene with his agent. Especially when he was trying to get the phone ear piece in. All the cerebal palsy bits. I think that girl used to be in Grange Hill, but I'm not sure.
The whole Catholic meeting scene. You just knew he'd be wearing something dodgy as the camera panned round....
Still, it's bound to be repeated.

Yes, yes they could.
