  • Summary: Essentially, a take on The Odd Couple, Peep Show revolves around the lives of Mark Corrigan and Jeremy Osbourne; two twenty-somethings who share a flat.

    Mark works in an office and has a bleak outlook on life; he's infatuated with his colleague, Sophie Chapman. Jeremy, in contrast, is a
    lazy, shallow man trying to make it in the music industry.

    A unique twist that immediately sets the show apart form other sitcoms is the use of the first person view point [the original show title was POV], where we get to see from the characters own eyes. We also get to hear internal thoughts and opinions which reveals things they wouldn't say out loud.

  1. Peep Show’s sixth season see’s Mark still trying to impress colleague Dobbie (played by the lovely Isy Suttie) whilst Jeremy meets a new love ove in the form of Elena who is, unfortunately for him, bisexual and in a relationship with another woman.

    This of course all leads to a number of disastrous and embarrassing consequences for the mis-matched pair and, fortunately for us viewers, those consequences are as funny as ever.
