  • The IT Crowd: Denholm declares war on stress - a war on disease! Of course everyone shares his enthusiasm on combating it...Watch more clips & subscribe here: bit.ly/SUBSCRIBE_THEITCROWD
    This clip is from Series 1 Episode 2 'Calamity Jen'.
    The IT Crowd is a comedy set in the London offices of the fictional Reynholm Industries, the show revolves around the three staff members of its IT department: a geeky genius named Maurice Moss (Ayoade), the work-shy Roy Trenneman (O'Dowd), and Jen Barber (Parkinson), the department head/relationship manager, who knows nothing about IT. The show also focuses on the bosses of Reynholm Industries: Denholm Reynholm (Chris Morris) and later, his son Douglas (Matt Berry).
    The comedy premiered on Channel 4 on 3 February 2006, and ran for four series of six episodes each. Although a fifth series was commissioned, it was never produced. The programme was concluded with a special, one-off episode, aired on 27 September 2013.

      That's the running gag, they don't mention what their business is... however it's been implied it's a telecommunications company. Denholm once said that they'd acquired phone carriers and television stations to create "the largest communications empire in the UK." Further hints include the Reynholm Industries commercial (with Douglas), where a woman is seen chatting on a mobile phone. There is also the episode about the Internet. And then this episode, where they advertise the new emergency number.
      Ironically, such a company would depend heavily on their IT department.
