I'd like to help but I'm not sure I can extend it as far as I did in the 1970s. Might end up with a Robert Robinson.

Dawn actually - I don't think there was anyone called Pam in The Office, which enable Brent early on to use the old joke of "Waking up at the crack of Dawn"

Correct. Pam was in the American version (which was also very good). Dawn, in the UK version, was played by Carrott's daughter, Lucy Davis.
Pam, who was basically an American version of the same character, was played by Jenna Fischer.

Not literally nothing as she had major roles in Shaun of the Dead and Wonder Woman amongst other things.
I'm not sure I'd describe Crook as a 'huge star' either.
But you are right - certainly a much quieter career than the other three.
