Plot
At the UK company Reynholm Industries, their corporate high-rise towers are full of beautiful happy people with one success story after another. Well, except for the employees that work in the basement - the IT department. While their colleagues work in fantastic surroundings, Jen, Roy and Moss must work below ground in the dark and horrible basement, struggling to make it into normal society. The IT Crowd is a playful and somewhat surreal look at what it's really like to be the underclass of every company - the IT Department.Cast

Jen applies for a job at Reynholm Industries and is hired by the quite eccentric CEO Denholm . Based on the skills she listed on her CV (aka resumé), Denholm makes Jen the manager for the IT department. The only problem is, Jen doesn't know the first thing about computers and Denholm is too dense to notice. From the beautiful offices of the upper floors, Jen is sent to the IT department, which is located in the basement. Amidst the cluttered and dank offices, Jen meets Moss and Roy, the two geeks that make up the IT department. It's clear from the start that Jen doesn't want to work in the basement and Moss and Roy don't want a manager that doesn't know anything about computers. Can the three of them find a common ground where they all three can work together?Director: Graham Linehan

Denholm declares war on stress and threatens to fire anyone who is under stress by the end of the day. To help the company win the "war," Denholm hires a stress expert who has a "stress-o-meter." Jen falls in love with a pair of shoes, but refuses to believe that the shoes are two sizes to small and buys them anyway. Moss sets fire to the basement office with a soldering iron and Roy's battle with kleptomania gets the better of him. Will the team hold it together by the end of the day so no one gets fired? Or will the combination of mangled feet and a raging fire cause too much stress and cause them to lose the "war?"Director: Graham Linehan

Love is in the air with the IT Crowd! Roy has what he thinks is a wonderful date, only to learn that he has had something nasty on his forehead the whole evening. Jen fancies the security guard (Oliver Chris) and tries to impress him by guessing the answers to questions on classical music. Jen figures she has a 50:50 chance of getting the right answer, so there's no harm in it, or is there?With Roy's disappointment over his last date, he decides that women only like bastards. Jen disagrees, so to settle the argument, Roy puts a fake profile up on an online dating site. Roy and Moss create a horrible online profile, only it works a little too well.Director: Graham Linehan

Moss has a new mug with a picture of his name on it so that it doesn't go missing. Unfortunately, Moss learns that his mug has gone missing. Jen has become more comfortable with her surroundings and sees for the first time the "Red Door." Roy refuses to allow her to see what's behind it for fear that Jen will upset the delicate eco-balance of the office. While on an IT call, Roy becomes trapped as a "desk rabbit" and Moss has to go and save him, leaving the Red Door unguarded. What will Jen find behind the door and what the heck is a "desk rabbit?"Director: Graham Linehan

Jen explains to Roy and Moss that her "Aunt Irma" is visiting. When they don't understand, she explains that she has very powerful mood swings around a certain time every month, which leads to Roy and Moss displaying the same symptoms. Project Iccarus is finished and all of the teams assemble before Denholm as he thanks everyone even remotely associated with the project - except for the IT Crowd. To retaliate in being left out of the the "thank you's," the IT Crowd decide to sabotage the celebration party only to find themselves enjoying in the festivities and to the bizarre conclusion the morning after. Will everyone be able to work together again? We will just have to wait and hope that Channel 4 orders another season of "The IT Crowd"!Director: Graham Linehan
