Peep Show

Winning Losers

Paternity muddles, brainwashing cults and a failure to find 'the one': things didn't work out as planned for Mark and Jez in the last series of Peep Show. So what fresh humiliation awaits this time? Grace Dent joins them on set.

Peep Show - They're still worth spying on

Six series on and Mark and Jeremy are the same old losers, living in one another's pockets. That's the secret of Peep Show's success, David Mitchell and Robert Webb tell James Rampton.

Interview: David Mitchell, Robert Webb ('Peep Show')

With a pair of CVs covering the likes of Peep Show, Magicians and That Mitchell And Webb Look, David Mitchell and Robert Webb have officially cemented themselves as comedy connoisseurs. But with Peep Show series six now upon us - and with a seventh already on the way - are they getting tired of Mark and Jez? And how much longer can the show go on? We caught up with the chaps themselves to find out.

The script editor of Peep Show, Iain Morris, was intrigued to receive a letter informing him that a television crew was filming in his street this week. Especially when it turned out to be the team behind... Peep Show. Pondering why his area was chosen, Morris - who also happens to be the co-creator of The Inbetweeners - told commissioner Andrew Newman: "I think it's the crack dealer/gang special."

Behind the scenes: Peep Show 6

PICTURE GALLERY: Sam Bain, co-writer of Channel 4 comedy Peep Show, reveals a sneak peek of the new series featuring David Mitchell and Robert Webb. The sixth series, made by Objective Production, will air this autumn.

Peep Show's Seventh Heaven

Last week the cult comedy hit Peep Show was commissioned for a seventh series, yet three years ago there were rumours circulating that the show would not get a fourth. A reversal of fortune or vindication of Channel 4's then dismissal of reports of the shows' death as greatly exaggerated, if not fabricated?

Peep Show to return for seventh series

Channel 4 has commissioned a seventh series of Bafta-winning sitcom Peep Show before the sixth series has even aired. C4 entertainment and comedy head Andrew Newman confirmed that Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong's sitcom would return for a further series, which is slated for next year. It is next due on screens this summer.

How many sitcoms do you know that are still funny after five seasons? Particularly British ones, that generally struggle after three. Amazingly, Peep Show has yet to slip up, although this season definitely missed a trick in not making the fallout to Mark's failed marriage more central. Indeed, this year didn't have a strong hook week-to-week, but thankfully ended on a cliffhanger that will ensure season 6 fares much better.
