If You're a Fan of 'The Office,' You'll Want to Watch This Magical (and Supremely Awkward) Crossover

Back in 2001, Freeman starred as the paper salesman "Tim" (the role American viewers would see as "Jim" on the U.S. adaptation of the show), and he reprised his role Saturday night with a few tweaks: pointed ears, "Lord of the Reams" Gandalf for a boss and salesman Smeagol at the adjacent desk.
