Ron in the board room in Golden Years.

Ron Merchant is the father of Stephen Merchant, and seems to be responsible for many of his traits, particularly his carefulness with money.

Ron made a few cameo appearances in The Office as Gordon, a caretaker always stunned by the cameras. He also had a small role in Golden Years with Ricky and Steve.


Mr. Merchant Anecdotes

On 24 November 2001 Steve shared several stories on the Xfm shows involving his father as a poor gift-giver. Gifts given by Ron Merchant include:

  • The Collected Wartime Speeches of Sir Winston Churchill on audio cassette, given to Steve for his 14th birthday.

I'm not sure when you'll ever be in the mood to listen to that, to be honest. Unless you're under attack ...

  • The Making of Thriller, given to Steve.

Lucky me. Can we watch it now?

  • a stainless steel trowel and an industrial-sized tin of coffee, given to his wife Elaine for their 20th wedding anniversary.

She loves coffee, Steve.
