So I got these little gems for christmas. God bless Sant's XXL cotton socks. I'd only watched a couple of episodes of Peep Show before so was completely unprepared for the whirlwind of sheer comic genius that would ensue. Mark and Jeremy are flatmates. Jeremy is the trendy guy who epitimises pop culture stupidity and Mark is a 60 year old grump in a twenty something year olds body. It basically follows their exploits and mainly Mark's wooing of Sophie is work colleague.

The thing that sets this comedy apart, is the thought dialogue. It is always well observed and the writers are very skilled and good at working in references to popular culture and politics. Mark also makes loads of references to the Second World War.

This comedy is for anyone. It's got a lot of adult humour though so dont watch it with your mum. The DVDs have quite a few nice individual stand apart scenes which are great, plus a load of deleted scenes that have obvioulsy been deleted due to time limits and not due to their quality.
