Wahoo! Excited to hear what you think of this.

Andy Luke

Series 4 has a lot of spinning plates and the first half might take some scrutiny to follow. I'm a politics graduate and i found the story tough at times. But the comedy keeps coming and I enjoyed the payoff immensely. I'm here through your Peep Show YouTube s btw. Once i saw you were taking on The Tucker I were binging. Maybe we can coax you into a watch along of an episode of Doctor Who with Capaldi. Thanks for being great company Josh and lots of love to you and yours. - Andy, artist from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Great story analysis.i think you'll follow what's coming.Julius Nicholsons kid is at Charter House,which afaik is a very elite private fee-paying school,though as he says, 'a day pupil, not a boarder.'

The next series reflects the events irl UK politics at the time of broadcast. Nicola Murray's party Labour lost but the Conservatives (Peter Manion's party) didn't have enough votes for an outright majority so formed a coalition with the Liberal Democrats. Glen chooses to be a staffer for a Lib Dem guy who is sharing a department with Manion. This isn't a spoiler btw, could imagine it being utterly confusing watching it 12 years later.

Oh man, that Philip Schofield joke at 9:40 has suddenly become 100% topical.

David Lyons

This series aired just after 'In the Loop' came out, and casting Tom Hollander as The Fucker after he played a mild mannered idiot in the movie is brilliant, that guy has range!

Charterhouse is actually a very expensive boarding school for teenagers aged 13-18. It costs £44,000 per year. It's where the elites send their kids, along with other very famous schools like Eton and Harrow. It's not for badly-behaved kids, it's for very rich ones, kids whose parents can afford to pay for them to get a huge advantage at the start of their lives. Kids who eventually grow up to be Boris Johnson and other extremely powerful people who glide through life on a magic carpet of privilege. It's a boarding school - pupils generally stay there for the duration of the term. It's the kind of school that Hogwarts is modeled on. Charterhouse is basically Hogwarts if all the pupils were from Slytherin and nothing noteworthy happened except for light pedophilia.

Saul

How is that not a spoiler? You're describing the events of the next series. Please, if there's any doubt just write 'spoiler alert' at the top to be on the safe side.

Saul

Maybe we could try and get Veep/Succession onto the playlist here too...

Terri is one of the best comedy characters of all time.

Those events happened off camera in between the 3rd and 4th series and are never mentioned explicitly in s4 as the show was designed to be watched contemporaneously. The viewer is supposed to be watching s4 in late 2012, halfway through the coalition government, for context. I have not described any events which happened in s4. The coalition of 2010-2015 is a distant memory for many. Series 4 occurs 2 years into the new government so there are no spoilers for the actual show. There is a 3 year gap in between s3 and 4. hth

The reason why I wrote the op was to fill Josh in on the real life events which are reflected in the show. Otherwise he'd be scratching his head for most of s4 wondering why some people have seemingly switched sides and certain people appear to have disappeared altogether. These events are not directly referenced in the programme itself as the show had a cult following amongst people with an interest in the current political scene. Without this information, it would probably appear as if there is a missing series in between 3 and 4.

I always hope that The Thin Blue Line wins your polls, as the actor who plays Steve Flemming (the crazy guy in these episodes) is the best thing on it! XD VERY different humour than The Thick of it, but very good in it's own way! :)

Saul

Ah, my mistake Henry. I thought you were describing things that happened on-camera. Apologies.

Saul

Although piecing together what you're saying, you have still outlined what's happened before it's happened, so thinking about it I don't see how it isn't a spoiler. ...What difference does it make if it happens off-camera? You're still telling Josh and myself new information about the show that would otherwise be novel to both of us. The fact that it happened offscreen is irrelevant because the surprise of the setup for season four is now lost. This is why, if you're not sure, you just write spoiler alert. What you wrote was a spoiler, whether you meant it to be or not. I'm not saying it's ruined things for me but I know now how season four will start. That could've been avoided with a spoiler alert. Err on the side of caution next time, just in case.

Saul

I find him sort of creepy rather than funny in this. The scary way he talks and the dead eyed, psychotic aggression.... a long way from Rev.

Andy Luke

Right. It was only on this rewatch I *got it*. He's not menacing like Malcolm, Jamie, Stuart of that wee Fisher Price policeman. It's the dullness of The Fucker: he fades into the background, like Frankenstein's monster on the slab, then flares unexpectedly. Peter Mannion didn't appear rattled by him and I wonder is there ano off-screen scene when he is. The Fucker seems to work by blandness, almost quetness: he's a threat and we don't need to know much more about him than that

Andy Luke

Ooh, I didn't know that. Rowan Atkinson and only two seasons. I remember the publicity campaign suggested a Brittas Empire tone to it but I never got to check it out.

Andy Luke

Maybe its come up on here before how the writers have been very clear no fictional party in the show is modelled after one group of politicians. That's quite different from drawing an analogy between one set of characters and another. Writers are liars but all stories are true so I'll let them have that. Spoilery-ish-ism ------------------- There is a basis with UK politics upon transmission and the conceptual models of government Henry outlines.

Saul

It's a shame we didn't get to watch this before In The Loop...seeing Malcolm come face to face with Gandolfini, the only person who's ever really fronted up to him...the impact of that is greater if you knnow who Malcolm is.

VEGGIE GAMER

I would personally say it is better than Brittas Empire, but I can see what those people mean! Some very silly characters, etc. :)
