“… actually she’s a bit of a div who thinks Alain de Botton is good.”

November 21st, 2010 by Dan


It’s Peep Show press season (unsurprisingly) and The Guardian had a nice piece this weekend.

It’s a Q&A type thing involving Armstrong, Bain, Mitchell & Webb and includes the following things:

“He’d definitely have voted for Labour in ’97. But, had he been able to vote, he would have voted Tory in ’87 and ’83. He’s a reed in the wind, so it might have been Lib Dem. And now he feels guilty.”

“You gave him a brilliant moment last series where it occurred to him for the first time that he might be in the 99% of deluded idiots who are not going to make it rather than the 1% of brilliant people who are.”

Episode 1 of series 7 in on that 4OD thing but as we are old fashioned and think a catch-up service should be for exactly that sort of thing and not premieres we’re not talking about it. Apart from this bit and the link to a thing where someone else thinks the same.

    Can we expect any behind-the-scenes info/whatever for Peep Show, as you occasionally provide for Look?

  2. Dan Says:

    Afraid not, as I know nothing about what goes on there at all, unlike Look and Sound which I lurk around and investigate with ease.
