Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaToni's flat is actually the same flat as the one used for Mark and Jeremy's, the production team just redecorated it.
- GoofsIn one scene Mark hides behind the front entrance doors of Apollo House, watching the kids through the letterbox, then Toni opens the door, accidentally knocking him over. In this scene the doors are covered with gray panels, however at the beginning of the episode when Mark first encounters the kids, we see that the doors are clear glass, with no letterbox.
- Quotes
Mark Corrigan: [voiceover] Sophie's the one. Toni's Russia; vast, mysterious, unconquerable. Sophie's Poland; manageable, won't put up too much of a fight.

Warring Factions
Mark Corrigan (David Mitchell) is clever, introverted and socially awkward. He is also obsessed with Russian history. The kids in the neighbourhood shout Peado at him. Jez Usborne (Robert Webb) is a slacker musician with a high opinion of himself. The cool relaxed dude without much of a care in the world.
Both of them want to bed their next door neighbour Toni when she throws a party. Jez is unhappy that Mark and Toni mocked his music. Mark also has an interest in work colleague Sophie but his awkwardness gets in the way.
This is an odd couple comedy and both of them obsessed with sex and can easily get bitter with each other. Both actors look much younger here as this episode went out in 2003. It is filmed in a point of view style with narration from both the characters.
It's easy to sympathise with Mark but also to get irate with him as well. Not only is he too anal he is unable to tell some kids to get lost.
You can tell that Peep Show has the ability to go dark, neurotic and absurd. The first episode was a little uncertain as you get a handle on the characters.
