Ian "Beefy" Botham was a famous English cricket player. He was a bit of a wild-man (smoking pot and fighting with the cops) but after retirement he did a lot of charity work, most famously a sponsored walk from one end of Britain to the other.
You're right that this would be an HR nightmare now, but it's not always been like that. In the UK, none of this would have been something that the firm would get involved would prior to about 2000 (although it might have been earlier in larger firms). When I started working in offices in the 1980s, there were plenty of office romances and affairs. I could tell you some stories. And every year there would be a punch up at the Christmas party once the booze started flowing. Sometimes people would be sacked for it, but most you'd just be told to shake hands and not do it again.

Gathering speed for the children in need!

Sarcasm I.e. “why don’t you put that in an email to me” is not your specialty.
Don't forget the Xmas special and the David Brent movie.
The Brent movie was written by Ricky alone and it shows. Awful.
I love the Xmas special. I cried and laughed a lot.
Still 3 left in series 2 yet. Don’t confuse them
That is quite true about Top Trumps. When I was 8 or 9 I was totally expert. In a grown man, it's not quite as cool!
The guy from the consultancy firm looks like a young Donald Trump
