Heh I learned about the Brompton from the quirky BBC show "W1A", where it was treated as a kind of strange status symbol.

Hm, that show just made fun of British corporate culture, and Brompton spearheads this.

Although to be fair I never worked for a company where there was at least one Brompton.

Having said that there’s something very British about it IMO. But I am not British.

Worth noting that W1A is the BBC making a comedy series about the corporate culture of the BBC.
