Peep Show

Peep Show follows the lives of dysfunctional best friends Mark Corrigan (Mitchell) and Jeremy "Jez" Usbourne (Webb), who share a flat in Croydon, South London. Mark is a pessimistic, socially awkward loan manager who dreams of being a historian, while Jeremy is a perpetually unemployed layabout and failed musician who lives in Mark's spare room. The show has been described by Bain as portraying "the stubborn persistence of human suffering", while Armstrong said it was "about oddball male friendship, perhaps even 'masculinity'".

Despite never achieving high viewing figures during its original run, Peep Show received consistent critical acclaim and has since become a cult classic. In April 2019, three years after its final episode, the series was named the thirteenth greatest British sitcom in a poll by Radio Times. It has also been described as one of the best television programmes produced in the 21st century, and one of the best comedy series of all time.
