Offiice Polls: Please bring them back

I enjoyed the US v. UK Office polls, and would love to see them return. Any chance of that happening?

There's nothing stopping you from continuing them if you wish.

I made the mistake of watching the UK after the US. I really don't like the UK versions (because I feel they are repeatitive, even though they are the originals!). Plus, I can't understand any of the gobblywankerdorights.

Two...I'm saving the obvious big one for the end, but tonight I'll put up another one of the "minor" characters.

I did this too, but I don't feel they're repetitive in any way. And while I won't say that I don't like it, I'm just not compelled to re-watch them as much as I do the US version. I actually like the British accents and the fact that you can barely understand any of it.

Are British accents really that difficult for people to understand?

I can get not understanding some of the cultural references, but it's not like we're talking Highlands Scottish or something.
