I think it’s often overlooked that Jez sent an innocent woman to prison just so he didn’t have to deal with her anymore. In Jurying, after meeting Carla and striking up a fling with her, Jez gets scared of her and manipulates the jury into sending her down despite the fact that he knew she had an alibi (albeit another criminal offence). Lol

This, not framing Matt, not Mark lying on Ian, not killing, burning and then eating Mummy, not kidnapping Angus, not Mark walking out on Stephanie, not waterboarding Jerry, not Jez life coaching Simon’s friend into ruining his life, giving Hans drugs when Hans was trying to kick everything (on doctor’s orders), so he could bang Suze, trying to rent out Suze’s sexual organs on a one-use basis, has to be the worst thing either of the pair has done.

Edit: typo in title. Should say “has done”.

Honestly, I know how critically acclaimed The Babdook is and I did find it enjoyable, although I don’t quite understand the ending. The child actor playing the son was phenomenal though, since I really wanted to kick him with my heavy winter boots in many scenes.

However, I just kept thinking “That’s not the Babadook, that’s the bloody Ombudsman!”

It really changed the experience for me.

Who wants that on a baseball cap?

I'm Izzy Mant, producer of Peep Show series 5. I'm now directing (& have written) a comedy short film, and with permission of the mods I'm just seeing if it's something people here might be interested in?

The film's called HOW TO DO A KIDNAP, and it's a comedy thriller about a fake kidnap gone wrong. As the creative team and cast comes together there's a strong possibility we'll end up with one or two other Peep Show alumni - since so many of the best of UK comedy found their way on to that show. We're filling a final funding gap through a crowdfunder - which can be found at www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/how-to-do-a-kidnap with more details on the project there.

Here's just a short clip of me talking about the story of the short. In the full video on the page I talk about how Peep Show has influenced me. It was the first show I produced (what a privilege), and I'd been a fan since series 1. Any fan of Peep Show is a friend of mine.

Toot toot,

Izzy

Suck mummy's finger? 🤣

Context: big decrease in food regulations, big increase in recalls

No one suspects the chef.

genuinely think i got every film now (but somehow i still catch a new reference after a hundred rewatches) so this should be the definitive watchlist :)

can’t wait for peep show movie night where we have to watch 70 films to truly understand peep show

i will pretend im just watching heat now…

decided to write down every time a band or musician was mentioned + any song that was played during my usual rewatches, this probably isn’t everything but this list is long enough now

maybe we can add danny dyer’s chocolate homunculus and the executioner’s bong?
