Peep Show series 6 episode 4 review
The mighty Paterson Joseph returns as Peep Show carries on delivering the laughs...
Mark Oakley, Den Of Geek, 12th October 2009Peep Show Episode 6.4 Review
Another marvelously twisted comedy of embarrassment this week, as Mark overheard Jez's new girlfriend Elena talking to her long-term lover... and isn't pleased when it becomes clear Elena wants him to break the news to Jez...
Dan Owen, Dan's Media Digest, 11th October 2009Peep Show: season six, episode four
The bad news is Elena is starting to irritate; the good news is the simmering Mark-Johnson sexual tension is back.
Julia Raeside, The Guardian, 10th October 2009Peep Show - Series 6, Episode 4 Preview
As the pendulum swings back in Jeremy's favour (he's in a happy relationship with Elena the sexy drug dealer) Mark is delighted to find out that she may not be all she first seemed. But will he shatter Jez's illusions? Mark also considers Johnson's offer of a business partnership. The same Johnson who bailed on JLB Credit faster than Mark could say, "There goes the last Beemer out of Saigon."
Julia Raeside, The Guardian, 9th October 2009This sixth series of the sitcom about two hapless flatmates (played by David Mitchell and Robert Webb) continues to be consistently funny so it's good news for fans that a seventh has been commissioned. Tonight, Mark (Mitchell) finds out that Jeremy's (Webb) new Russian girlfriend Elena has a secret but can't bear to break his friend's happiness by spilling the beans. Meanwhile Johnson (Paterson Joseph) gives Mark more food for thought by asking him to go into business.

How could this series of Peep Show possibly get any better?
Jane Simon, The Mirror, 9th October 2009It's series six, but Peep Show remains as fresh and wonderful as ever. It's one of those rare shows where writing and casting work together in tuneful harmony and the results are never then less than superb.
