Here’s something to brighten your day – an absolutely hilarious video which demonstrates that agents know how to indulge in some heavyweight parody.
There are some classic lines in this gem, including some gloriously un-PC remarks about the boss’s recruitment policy, which according to James, the negotiator, who is surrounded by a sea of blondes, is faultless – but he also warns about that ‘synchronised time of the month’.
Oh, and there are some rude remarks about Balham.
There’s also some classic training footage featuring Charlotte, the manager, who is either a professional actress or missing her true vocation, and if TV bosses really want to find the next Phil Spencer, they can stop their search with James.
Under Offer is shot by Real Impact Productions, allegedly after following around a west London agent in Hammersmith for six weeks.
There are not too many clues as to who the agents actually are, and the Rampton Baseley sign being taken down by James in the interests of all being fair in love and war is a bit of a red herring.
In fact, it’s not hard to track down who the agent is, but why should LAT spoil the fun? Especially when we’re promised some more instalments.
We do have one question, though: what on earth is the video actually for? Is it really being circulated to the agent’s clients? Or is there some other purpose? We confess to scratching our editorial head.
You can find the video on the link below, complete with comments from YouTube watchers, most of whom don't seem to realise it's a skit.
Enjoy!

I think you will find that this is a complete rip off from the series "People like us" made late 1990's. It is a spoof in exactly the same format with even the same plots.
Those of you old enough to have seen it will remember it, if not research it. These young pups think they can pull the wool over our eyes. Afraid not, been done before and much better as well.
