The start of this thread reminded me of a short story by Irvine Welsh (can't remember waht collection though). It describes a sexual experience from a male and female point of view and is layed out on the page in two separate columns, to parallel their experience. Gradually, as their pleasure intensifies, the two separate texts 'come together' in one mind blowing experience. However, after the event you realise that these are in fact two strangers, living in flats next door to each other, and that they have been masturbating alone all the time.
Or maybe I'm reading too much into the start.

I got the DVD yeatsrday. Utterly fantastic it is too. Peep Show is probably one of the best comedies that i've ever seen.

I haven't got round to watching the extras yet. Too many essays to write. Interesting fact I did notice though (to me anyway) is that I was in the same class at school as the Unit/Location manager of Peep Show .hatever that may be.

I'm loving this series too - completely outshing Max and Paddy.
I'm thinking of writing an essay on Peep show for a University project (I won't bore you with the details), and it's good to find so many people who are into it. Looking for Peep Show on google etc, I notice that it is often called a 'cult comedy', does anyone know how a programme gets such a tag? Also, does anybody (away from this forum) quote bits of the programme to their mates, or is this just reserved for more obvious Bo Selecta 'chamone' lines? |

It seems to me that any comedy that's not broadcast on prime time BBC1 and repeated ad nauseam gets tagged with the 'cult' label. 'Cult' just means your grandma won't have heard of it.

Well, me and the only other person at school I know who watches this can't stop doing the ''Pour me'' line from last week. Also, using 'mate' and ''good ridance....you Nazi!'' has become common too. |

YEAH!
This is the best thing on the box (when it's on). When he gave Geoff 'the broom' I nearly fell off me sofa laughing. Sod the ratings (and well done C4 for doing so) It's too good for the chavs, let them have their Little Britain. This is for the more discerning viewer. 'shits all over Quincy' |

This was the best programme on all year. Luckily it looks quite cheap to film.
