Can anyone remember the name of a show that was aired around 2005(could be a couple of years either way). I think it was shown on a Friday night and from what I can remember it was really quick paced.I think it may have only had one series, two at a push.

It contained a recurring sketch where a group of disgruntled office staff would confront their boss over various issues,it always ended with him doing magic tricks etc.to distract them from the issues at hand. For some reason I recall him running away down metal fire escape stairs at the end of the sketches.

Any help would be appreciated

Could this be it? http://www.channel4.com/programmes/spoons

Fits the time period and fast pace description. From memory most of the skethes focused on relationships/interactions with people.

Almost 10 years earlier if so. Big Train was 1998.
