David Brent Sculpture Unveiled in Slough | Leicester News

A clay sculpture of David Brent, weighing seven kilos and crafted over 120 hours, has been unveiled at a Premier Inn in Slough — the very spot where the iconic Wernham Hogg building once stood. Commissioned to celebrate The Office UK’s 25th anniversary, the statue honors a character who put Slough on the map, even as the hotel itself has transformed. Surprisingly, research found Brent’s Comic Relief dance is the most memorable moment from the show — outshining even the Christmas party kiss. While viewers see the series as a nostalgic snapshot of early 2000s office life, few would want to actually work in that environment. Yet, the hotel notes that despite workplace evolution, business travelers still crave a good night’s sleep — a funny twist on progress. This permanent fixture is a quirky, enduring tribute to a comedy legend who still makes audiences laugh — and maybe even pause for a second to reflect.
