Catherine Tate is top pick as The Office new boss

THR is reporting that British actress Catherine Tate is the producers' 'top choice' to be the new boss on The Office.

Apparently, this is good news to a lot of people - specially Dr. Who fans!

From THR:

The comedienne is already heading to Scranton for the show's finale, but sources tell THR that her stay could be longer.

If The Office producers have their way, Catherine Tate will be the new manager of Dunder Mifflin's Scranton branch.

The British comedienne, who will appear on the NBC comedy's Thursday finale episode alongside guest stars Jim Carrey, Ray Romano and Will Ferrell, is said to be the top choice of the show's producers, though her ability to take the job is in question due to her current theater commitment.
