The Peep Show

[usefullyuseless]

I think Super Hans was my favourite character

 

[Eureka]

One of my all time favourite shows. I still think of Mark whenever I make toast "Brown for first course, white for pudding"

 

[Cloak]

There was a lot of new energy in the room tonight, and some of it was just so Rainbow Rhythms, and some of it was just so ...not Rainbow Rhythms.

Mark’s wedding: the scene where Jez needs a wee and Mark tells him to piss himself. Cracks me up every time. ‘I’m so pathetic that as soon as your ordered me to piss myself I started the procedure’

I want to have a thread for all things Peep Show related! For people to post about their favourite moments / or if they have met any of the cast in real life/ have any trivia to share. Also I would love to hear any real life stories that could have come straight out of a Peep Show script, or people you know that are SO Mark or Jez etc ...

Basically any scene involving Johnson is

Mark Corrigan: Well, yeah… my only hesitation is that I don’t have any actual experience of management consulting…

Johnson: In, fire 30% of the workforce, new logo, boom! Out. You are now a fully trained management consultant.

Super Hans has some of the best lines ever ‘Just open your gob and someone will slip in something tasty: a pill, a nipple, a nice bit of fried halloumi. Lovely’

Love Peep Show! It’s a regular on my rewatch cycle and never stops being funny. So many Super Hans lines crack me up just thinking about them. When he’s talking about his daughters “the twins!” and my other fave “tell you what, that crack is really moreish”

BEST THREAD! I’m rewatching it at the moment!

“I like you and if you can’t handle it, you can just, you know, fuck off”

“I’m just a normal, functioning member of the human race and there’s no way anyone can prove otherwise”

“Is that... normal pooing you’re doing?”

“Oh, I’m sorry... I thought you said CHICKEN RUN”

Loved when Mark tentatively stepped in front of a car as well

“You should be more careful, you jizz cock”

“You could’ve had my legs off, you piss kidney”

 

[Toffee finger]

Love love love it. We quote it almost daily in this house. In particular-

Cauliflower is NOT TRADITIONAL
4 naan Jeremy, that’s insane.
Oi clean shirt how do you get your shirt so clean?
Crunchy nut? Pretty expensive as I recall
Is that normal pooing?
Plumbing’s just Lego init, water Lego
Snow Patrol

I was Mark as a teenager and now I’m Jez.

The Christmas episode is iconic for me.

 

[Sally1993]

When Mark hosts the dinner party but doesn’t have any food in. He and Jeremy draw on his eyelids so he forces himself to not blink the whole time and puts eye shadow on he serves disgusting food and says it’s Moroccan

I loooove Peep Show. Watched it through countless times, we just restart it every few months

My favourite quote is when they're in Rainbow Rhythms and Mark is flailing erratically and says "God, it's so easy being a freak. No wonder they're ten a penny" kills me off every time

Second favourite is "butter the toast, eat the toast, shit the toast. God, life's relentless"

 

[Cloak]

I was laughing the other day about when Mark makes friends with that guy at work then it emerges that the guy is a massive racist nazi but he so desperately wants a friend that he ignores it for as long as possible, denying it to himself. Ohh Mark

 

[Cloak]

My favourite episode of all time is the mushroom party episode. It’s a masterpiece! And when they barbecue the dog, who is called Mummy

 

[Sweet Jane]

The Christmas episode is iconic for me.

Classic!
Also Mark’s idea of a perfect evening
“Fish pie then missionary sex and Newsnight afterwards”

 

[aimzalicious]

This episode is my absolute favourite I agree that anything with Johnson is pure comedy

 

[Heyholetsgo]

I love Peep show so much, watched it again in lockdown. Favourite superhans quote "you get a van Jez we could be men with ven"

 

[Freedomofspeech89]

"And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like a like you"

 

[Notredamn]

Just thinking about the phrase 'business secrets of the pharaohs ' makes me cackle.

Loved when Mark tentatively stepped in front of a car as well

"Alright, you've had your fun with the sectioning. There'll be no more sectioning today"

Love that scene “If you try to section me, Mark, I will section you, so help me!”
