Thanks to the lovely Sarah at Holler who sent me the official Peep Show Season 4 press release and some new promo photos…

PEEP SHOW – Series 4

The multi award-winning and critically acclaimed hit comedy starring David Mitchell and Robert Webb returns to Channel 4 for a fourth series in 2007. Peep Show follows the private world of Mark (David Mitchell) and Jeremy (Robert Webb), two twenty-something flat-mates living in south London. Mark is the sensible one – a professional brogue wearer with a slightly worrying interest in World War Two. Jeremy is the loose cannon – a lazy waster with dodgy friends – who dreams of becoming a musician but can never get his act together, or up in the morning. As ever, their deepest, darkest thoughts and feelings are revealed as they try in vain to find their place in the modern world and to find love and fulfilment. Having proposed by accident to Sophie (Olivia Colman), Mark now faces the horror of having to actually go through with the wedding. Or will he…? And when Jeremy’s beautiful ex ‘visa wife’, Nancy (Rachel Blanchard) unexpectedly turns up again, how far will he go to win her back?
The series also sees Mark spending a horrific weekend with Sophie’s argumentative parents, trying to get his gym instructor sacked (‘he touched me’), and getting involved in a spot of arson. Meanwhile, Jeremy performs some ‘handy’ work for a male pop star (with the emphasis on ‘handy’), does something pretty unspeakable to a dog, and worse of all – sleeps with Sophie’s mother.

More proposing from Mark:

Nancy’s back! Interview:

Not long to go now… just under two weeks in fact.

An eagle-eyed ginger fan spotted this on the internet and thought I should share:

02/07/2007 RRP £15.99

Very well planned as it’s not even been recorded yet!

Item! That Mitchell And Webb Look is nominated in the comedy category (of course) at the 47th Rose D’Or Television Festival. Hurrah.

Do these men ever stop working?

Those Mitchell And Webb Fans went to The Drill Hall (Drill! Hall!) to see Mitchell and Webb do a radio recording of Daydream Believers which was previously a Comedy Lab pilot for the telly in 2001 and is now a Saturday afternoon Radio 2 pilot for the 5th of May 2007. It’s a little bit sci-fi but has the usual things you would come to expect, and I don’t mean Olivia Colman and Mark Evans being in it although they both were actually in it. James Bachman was not in it but was there, in a chair, over there. Mark Benton was also in it (Doctor Who link!) , as was Simon Greenall (Doctor Who link again!) who we still love from Mash And Peas even though that was years ago now. We worked the room afterwards and learnt that Olivia Colman is reasonably pregnant (her second time) and that Bruiser was her first television work. We also learnt that she is involved in a forthcoming M&W sketch project which we assumed was location work for series two of ‘Look.’ We also learnt that James Bachman’s beard is going to be gone by the end of the week when he does that thing with Celia Imrie and Anthony Head (yet another Doctor Who link!) , and that David Mitchell is still rather shy but Robert Webb loves to talk to us fan geeks. We also learnt the dates for the new third series of That Mitchell And Webb Sound and a special warm-up for the second series of That Mitchell And Webb Look. But we are not stalkers. And everyone has been in Doctor Who. Probably.

James Bachman and another impressive beard.

Olivia Colman on the soft drinks.

Robert Webb recommends That Mitchell And Webb Log.

David Mitchell looks less scared of us this time.

Robert and That Chezza The Superfan.

This is the description for the original Comedy Lab version. See how much it has changed when you listen to the radio on May 5th:

Two men share a house. One is Ray, who earns a good living by writing strange sci-fi books about Baron Amstrad, a Hitlerian despot touring the galaxy with his space crew. The other is Colin, his somewhat confused lodger and friend, whose main task seems to be rubbing ointment into the spots on Colin’s back. Parallel storylines (and character roles) portray their humdrum existence, including Colin’s temporary association with some hypocritical anti-capitalists determined to change the world from their Billericay base, and Baron Amstrad’s determination to wreak interstellar havoc.

There’s still time…

The other computery sketches for your viewing pleasure:

The end.

Peep Show allegedly returns to your telly next month. That is April for any particularly slow people using Macs instead of PCs…



… and the next batch of Those Adverts are up at That Place.

The other half of the new clips will be shown right here tomorrow.

You lucky people.

There’s a new proper length trailer for Magicians. Hurrah.

Looking good…
