Peep Show: Series 6 | Exclusive behind the scenes footage : Part 1 of 2 | Channel 4

[arr5612]

Why dont they just go and film inside a real mexican restaurant. 

[Bootstrap193]

it looks really tedious to shoot

[DiamondDanny]

One thing I've always wondered is how do they do scenes with a mirror? such as the infamous closet dobby scene?

[Task5003]

I love Peep Show! Looking forward to the new series. :)

[epeeist2008]

Is that Lee Mack's voice in the background?!?

[heinzie5]

lol weird seeing something being filmed that ends up being point of veiw xD

[helpthestupid]

4:30 is so funny, and how Mark tries not to burst in laughter

"I'll do the consulting, the number crunching, the meta-analysis and the business plan while you cover the fucking off and getting us an iced cold pincher of bud ok?"

[iamafish400]

this is amazing, never realised how complicated it was to film. really interesting. props to all the actors, camera men, sound guys etc for doing it so well! must've taken some practice.

[Hozzas]

I've got Peep Show on the TV now, and when you look at the amount of camera men and people involved in the scene and you look at the finished product its amazing how they make it look like theres only the characters in the room. Its amazing!

[darthlewis1]

Wouldn't a camera attatched to his head work better.

[GreenyyMan]

@darthlewis1 They did do that to begin with - but the camera quality was just so shit because it had to be a small camera and they didn't get the quality. Imagine holding one of those cameras on your head!

[inyalakitden]

ah not really because you can't really see what you're filming when you have a camera attached to your head. and you can't control the shake of the camera..Filming really takes time after that they need to take another shots of his facial reaction of that scene..

[ClaraLaraBombara]

how can saty in focus is what id like to know

[KillerKarrit]

I thought David had like a camera on him, or something.

Well, know I know that it's a guy standing infront of him xD

[rainyrainbow86]

this makes me love peep show even more.... its fascinating how they do it.

[hatty25111]

wow that's one hell of a transformation

[wendighoul]

Gotta love Johnson, he is simultaneously awesome and hateful!

[sivvyx01]

holy crap that looks complicated!

[grahamgrahamson]

This must be ridiculously complicated to shoot.

[Francis2061]

It's interesting to see how they film it. I like how David has to tap the camera man's arm to signal to him which way to look.

[aadoyle7]

i agree too where the hell did vicar of dibley come from hahaha

[grahamgrahamson]

This must be so difficult to shoot.

[rottiemum]

1st - very glad the 1-5 series are showing on Hulu so USA viewers can watch this gem of a show. I was hooked on the first episode! 2nd - how the entire crew pulls this series off is truly amazing! Much respect for everyone involved!

[Harvy355]

Anyone else think seeing the production and effort that goes into this show makes you appreciate it more? it does for me lol

Peep Show is going to be one of the many golden british comedies in history like Blackadder, Only fools, Monty Python, Vicar of Dibley and all the other good ones.

these guys are so funny!

[TheAlmightyAss]

holy shit this is soo complicated lol but the end product is the most intelligent and funniest proggramme out atm

[eedobaba7726]

It's wierd hearing someone else doing Mark's thoughts.

[hididdlyho82]

johnsons fast becoming my favourite charecter

[bloodhound99]

It flows well because of the editing

[AliasNeo92]

That's true. It's mint how you don't notice how much work is put in to the editting.

[Rossibanton]

Fucking funny, i love this show!

[grandmothersapplepie]

Fantastic Choreographing, it looks like everyone should get entangled and in the way, but you seem to keep it flowing brilliantly! good stuff.

[NewMoonRising]

It is just me who finds David Mitchell really cute?

[TheNorthernScum]

He looks like a giant bag of potatoes.

[NattleWattle]

no it's not just you, he is one of my guilty pleasures as i have developed what is undoubtedly a crush on him! oh and how people have taken the mickey. teehee!

[MCILROK11]

@NewMoonRising, hell no,hes the cutest guy ever xD

[JIGSAWHOFFMAN11]

@NewMoonRising r u a spastic horse?

[00smillsm]

So interesting to see how they film it. I heard that in the first couple of series they used cameras strapped to the top of the heads of the actors and actresses.

It's cool seeing david giving the camera man cues and signals and the way they move around together. it does flow so well when you watch the actual program. It must have taken a while to get this point of view method of filming down

[SaintLouisX]

It's great that David and everyone else are still able to voice properly while being cramped up and ducking around like that, great actors.

[gavindaysaccount]

Wow this is like some weird dance, no idea it was this complicated to film

[cmorebut]

This is genius and amazingly complicated the way its filmed and when you watch it all flows so well...good work guys!...

[Vilagen]

must be soo complicated to film

[mw2newbie]

Lol I was linked to this on a game I play, google "space-rebellion" if you wanna play :)

[MenCap7]

They don't put cameras on their heads any more?

[Safferoonicle]

I saw this episode last night!!!

it was so funny,

and its clever how they film it!!

[TheEmilyWright]

that looks so wierd when you only see part of whats happening

[cubfa99]

i love peep show

[Mircose]

is great to be able to see the behind the scenes footage.. but, why the sound volume is so low?

I can't hear anything.

[GregPollard]

seems like it is possibly the hardest way ever to film a show

[edgelessmoocow]

doubt it, I reckon scrubs is harder. They use a one camera setup, inside an actual hospital, so no easy to move around sets, and there's a lot more physical comedy.

[P22earl]

argh... i've seen too much at 2mins 30 !! Must safe it. Can't spoil it. Looks hilarious.

[RadioactiveJack]

Nice, I look forward to watching this scene on friday.

[handsandfaces]

white man with dreadlocks alert!

[luxvoix]

wow, the whole tapping the camera man and moving together and the synchronization it's insane!! which makes me love peep show even more

[pobhockle]

That looks incredibly awkward.

[martindmunro]

Consider subscribing to the unknown, just click my username, if you so wish

Love peep show

[YortonJunction1]

pity the audio was set -20db. down from thhe video, rather the -6db. as is the norm. spoilt a good clip.................YJ

[Mircose]

I  agree.

[Djnuttty]

Damn, This Spoiled The 4th Episode xD

[bbhebe]

HARD WORK

[paulaitchison]

tha is a tough gig trying to act with all tha crap going on - ive new found respect for this show which i feel is past the prime

[Seckser]

Very true.

[googletubgirl]

I kind of felt it was past it's prime but last season ended on a high and this season has been real good so far

[Nameless164]

I always thought they wore a special made camera helmet..

Makes me wonder how they did the sex scenes in previous series'..

[fjlfjelfjlvf]

i love how it filmed lol

[ordowski]

God damn, how Johnson rules! haha

[brandon220786]

When's part 2?

[Nogert]

Bet it was awkward for first two series, but they're pros at it now, haha

[5starrater1]

that's really incredible - I had no idea it was done like that. really cool!

[JESUSSDAD]

really ? they film it like that . thats just awkward .

i hope no 1 can hear my interior monologue .

peep show rules and its on tonight.

[topbanana188]

Speak up

[carbonfactory]

it's really interesting (to me!) to see how they film it cos I'm making my first short!

[jleon1985]

Damn it Channel 4, let Americans watch Peep Show on your website!

[ScottMyster15]

yeh well you should d othe same, i have to watch lost, heroes ect on shitty quality on the internet cuz i cant watch on nbc website

[BLACKSPORT53]

Its on 4od (4 on demand) rather than the channel 4 website

[jleon1985]

nope. not if you live in USA. I checked again to make sure.

[BLACKSPORT53]

Ahhh man that sucks

[Benjaminharris]

We shouldn't have to watch these fucking adds on here. I WANT MY SHOW NOW GOD DAMN IT! WHO'S WITH ME!?!??!?!?!!!!!!!!

[Seckser]

FIGHT THE POWER MAN!

[flimpkin4]

I refuse to watch this. I want to go on pretending that Jez, Mark, and the rest of the characters really do exist.

[imlustxx]

I LOVE THE PEEP SHOW

[billysharp15]

this video needs removing.its spoiling the story for us all.

[lcfc77]

You can choose not to watch it. Just use that brain thing. moron.

[billysharp15]

us peep show fans r morons 4 watching it, granted. but i just dont like how footage is available for us to see it can spoil viewing.

[Dynamicdj]

i love peep show. its my fav show ever, 1st eppo of series 6 was really good. cant wait till next friday. woooo

[RandalPlunkett]

what camera is that?

[Rosii93]

whats going on?

lol

[AhaSeriously]

Wow that looks quite complicated to film!

[PleaseCIickHere]

Cool!

[Oscar301]

looks like a logistical nightmare... i was under the impression the actors used head cameras, with fixed cameras for incidental stuff...

thanks for this extra-DVD-style snippet!

[ncurran1987]

I think they used to in the early episodes I saw it on the DVD extras but they must have changed it this season. I noticed myself that this season was filmed differently that the last series.

[sc841]

Last night...

10pm Fridays on channel4

[CanynJmper]

Crouton of Christ, hats off to the camera man and boom operator! Out of all the movies and shows I used to work on I've never seen so much movement.

[connaire777]

looks busy and confusing*

[JaxxDaemon]

this friday i THINK

[krazykizza]

Did the boom mic guy get in shot? I think he did.

[VBugattiV]

2nd :D

[RedFang4]
