Original Stars To Visit \'The Office\'
The British stars of the original The Office show are set to visit the US version of the hit comedy to shoot cameo roles. Ben Silverman, who executive produces the American version of The Office for NBC, claims employees of Slough, England paper company Wernham Hogg could find themselves sharing an office with Scranton, Pennsylvania company Dunder Mifflin. Silverman tells the New York Post newspaper, "There\'s a lot of love between (the casts and crews) of the two versions of the show. Expect some cameos from the UK paper company." While Silverman refuses to name which stars will be appearing, he does say the show\'s creator Ricky Gervais, who played cringe-worthy boss David Brent in the UK version, won\'t be on the US comedy anytime soon. He says, "We\'re going to save the big man for now."
