@@GarrowhillWoods That’s debatable. He’s simultaneously reserved whilst also making some reckless decisions. Characters (like people) are grey, not black and white.
Mark is not a bad person for doing this to her, he’s a bad person cause he refuses to stand up for himself and for people he supposedly cares for until it’s convenient for him.
I sympathize with Sophie. She wants a baby. She got married to Mark who wasted time she could have used to find someone else. She has every right to want to keep the baby. She didn't punch holes in his condom. He's the one who used a defective condom. It's his fault for using a defective condom not hers.
@@GizmoMaltese she refused to use a morning after pill when he told her what happened and did everything she could to increase the chances of getting pregnant
Actually you do realise that is what happens in corporations, the immediate line manager has to actually say its their decision and that they are not just taking orders, HR will often sit in to double check.
I'd personally like one of Mark Corrigan. 100% accurate and on time. A Jez satnav would be a beautiful nightmare "Yeaaah..just keep going down this country road for a few miles...the destination is at the end.............probably".
Wasted comment snarkily referencing the manner in which people share their joy in what they just experienced by quoting their most cherished lines, much like the way people take photographs, frame them, and then place them in conspicuous places in their home or office.
Comments like "comment of something that was already said in the clip" are now more annoying, try-hard, and banal, than comments which state something that was already said in the clip.
nah you just make sure you're good at handling the blowback if the relationship goes wrong - who cares what your ex partner thinks - EX means fucking EX - No EX-CEP-TIONS! 10000 out of 10, out..
TheStrober Chop her, as Johnson said. Added bonus, she’s then not hanging around like a bad smell so you’re free to make a move on the next office hottie.
This was mark's golden opportunity to convince her not to have the baby. Johnson handed it to him on a silver platter. Mark just needed to say "well it's your decision to have my baby against my wishes, so I will be doing the absolute bare minimum, e.g., child maintenance and nothing else, and now you don't have a job, so maybe you should think twice about it"
Phew, I'm so lucky I never buckled under expectations that I should "become a father". Having a baby must be one of the most traumatic experiences possible.
Skylar's worse, she's in every episode. Sophie doesn't show up anywhere near as often. Also shes not so annoying in the first season, only after they get together.
Yep, but her character is much more subtle because we don't hear what she thinks. When she says 'neither of us planned this but I want a baby' it pretty much means 'I planned this'
There’s a version of this clip with Sophie’s thoughts instead of Mark’s here. It is absolutely insane how manipulative she is in it. Amazingly, even worse than him. ua-cam.com/video/oLyjvplaJxE/v-deo.html
If she just found out she’s pregnant she’s more than likely still able to get an abortion, I don’t know why she’s freaking out so much. It’s not like she’s 8 months pregnant
She deserved it mate. Not only is she a drunken state who doesn't turn up for work, she also forces Mark to have a baby against his will for her own selfish desire to have kids when she clearly isn't fit to be a mother in the first place. Genuinely a terrible human being.
Yes, as it doesn't seem like she deserves to be fired. Alternatively if she did deserve it Mark should have stood up on his own behalf and told the boss to do the firing himself or have someone else do it as Mark and Sophie have had/still have a personal relationship and him having to fire her would put him in an awkward situation.
Probably an unpopular opinion but I always thought Olivia Coleman's acting was poor in Peep Show and next to someone as good as David Mitchell it really shows up.
"Have you considered voluntary redundancy?"
"No."
"Have you considered...involuntary redundancy?"
"No"
OMG! 🤣
PERFECT delivery from both on that exchange, amazing.
“Just got to say the right words for now, worry about what they mean later”. Such a relatable quote
And thats bad advice! Better to be straight up always. If it goes South it goes South!
@@MauriceTarantulas Well yeah, of course. Marks character is to make and say the wrong things though so its supposed to be bad advice
@@GarrowhillWoods That’s debatable. He’s simultaneously reserved whilst also making some reckless decisions. Characters (like people) are grey, not black and white.
The sentence Jordan Henderson lives by
"Oh fiddlesticks of course im having a baby, great, il probably drop it or it will grow up and write a bitter memoir about how distant i was." HAHAHA
You get a document on that baby and you are... seriously looking at that document
bigwingedkuriboh baby
"That baby"
Foreshadowing
I’ve seen peep show a billion times and only just now noticing Johnson’s suit is shiny! Perfect!
I used to routinely use a 32 inch monitor on my computer at home, it was excellent. I was seriously looking at those documents!
Richard Crooks yes really spread those sheets
"Right, you're pregnant... ... of course."
That's so Mark
Mark and his,wicked willy
Mark is not a bad person for doing this to her, he’s a bad person cause he refuses to stand up for himself and for people he supposedly cares for until it’s convenient for him.
He’s just a sigma male
Exactly. His choice to always be submissive to Johnson ruined his life
Sophie forgot to mention that she slept with 2 other men and didn’t know who the father is.
Typical slag. Shame
@@adude8424 typical virgin
He is right though. That is pretty much the definition of a slag.
@@gibsondanny sleeping with 3 people is a slag? In that case, I'm like a quadruple slag
She's an awful person. Almost as awful as Mark and Jez.
- I'll fire someone else; Paul, he's a pain in the arse.
- That would be nice.
Chance would be a fine thing
@@RedRemRob A fine thing indeed.
1:26 "I know neither of us planned this". Loool, how could anyone sympathize with Sophie is beyond me.
Literally baby trapped him. Baby trapping is rape
I sympathize with Sophie. She wants a baby. She got married to Mark who wasted time she could have used to find someone else. She has every right to want to keep the baby. She didn't punch holes in his condom. He's the one who used a defective condom. It's his fault for using a defective condom not hers.
@@GizmoMaltese she refused to use a morning after pill when he told her what happened and did everything she could to increase the chances of getting pregnant
@@tkman2718 It's her body. She has every right to want a baby.
@@GizmoMaltese she doesn’t have the right to deliberately get pregnant from a guy who she knows doesn’t want a baby
“Have you ever considered voluntary redundancy?… Well, have you ever considered involuntary redundancy?” 😂
I never understand why he doesn't just say "Johnson asked me to fire you, he wants you gone. I don't know what to do"
Because he's Mark Crorigan
I think you're kinda missing the point of the show, they're all shit people.
Shit rolls downhill.
Because it was checkmate
Actually you do realise that is what happens in corporations, the immediate line manager has to actually say its their decision and that they are not just taking orders, HR will often sit in to double check.
Johnson is such an amazing character.
1:29 is one of the funniest frames in the show
Oliva Coleman is one of the best actresses is Britain.
And today, she's been rewarded with an Oscar.
I agree
She's a national treasure
No she's really not
No she isn't
I do wish we could get a sat nav voice of Johnson
I'd personally like one of Mark Corrigan. 100% accurate and on time. A Jez satnav would be a beautiful nightmare "Yeaaah..just keep going down this country road for a few miles...the destination is at the end.............probably".
Every time you don't follow its directions: "are you a pathetic, worthless punk?"
@@esquilax5563 "I'm your sat nav. If you look like a sausage dog-fucker then I look like a sausage dog-fucker."
"45 minutes to London. But I do it in 15. Stick that up your dojo."
Would be perfect for driving around in fwonkfort
In every situation that Mark's in i can think of a way to get out of it with no drama.
Maximum security business institution
Fwankfort
This scene is so cringey. I felt so bad for Mark here XD
I don't, he brings those things into himself
This show's awful....what the goddamn point of it??
It's only me Hahahahah you don't get it do you
@@ericexaybachay laugh at these horrible people?
Hahaha mark is just trying to live he doesn't deserve this life
Tomorrow I'm going into the office to seriously look at some documents
0:41 One day, I will use that metaphor.
1:25 - fucking brutal, Johnson! 😂
The title alone hahhaha : " Firing your pregnant ex-wife"
"Only three?" hehe
At least it wasn't four. That's insane!
So many amazing, iconic lines in one clip
Along with Johnson's gunshot
1:14 = Best Scene
What do you think "scene" means
“Maximum security business institution” lmao
Just say the right words. Think about what they mean later...LMAO

2:52
this is me in many occasions
“Just gotta say the right words, can think about what they mean later”
Johnson is hilarious!
She's a superb actress!
‘Right . Only 3?’
One of the hundred thousand reasons you don't "shit where you eat."
"I'll fire someone else in your place"
"That will be nice" :)))
This was mark's golden opportunity to convince her not to have the baby. Johnson handed it to him on a silver platter.

1:19 should've said ''...and you're also fired"
Olivia is a fantastic actress. She really makes you hate Sophie.
"She's so unpregnated"
😂😂😂
oh, fiddlesticks hahaha
I’m not running a rehab facility here
I had the same reaction when I got told my missus was pregnant
oh fiddlestix
Phew, I'm so lucky I never buckled under expectations that I should "become a father". Having a baby must be one of the most traumatic experiences possible.
Always felt sorry for Sophie here
1:15 When I’ve forgotten to take out the rubbish.
The British “American Psycho” is crazy!
You’re pregnant…of course…🤣
A royal marine with super spurme
chapman, corrigan
Surely Mark would get in huge shit with Johnson if we doesn't do the one thing he's been specifically asked to do
“Only three?”
Does anyone realise how bad a person Sophie actually is? The methods she uses, she's like borderline personality or something..
you mean she's a woman?
Yea, the show does a great job of actually making you despise a character
Definitely check out "Sophie's Peep Show" for a closer look
@@michaelsmith953 who hurt you?
@@Xman360z my mother
Mark always being submissive to Johnson was the thing that dragged him down
1:15-1:17
Serious question though: what should one actually do in this situation?
In any civilised country it's illegal to fire pregnant employees, so it would not come up.
@@cire837 Pregnancy doesn't make you immune to dismissal. As long as it's not connected to the pregnancy you can still get fired. It's a tough world
@@evremn what shithole are you from?
@@cire837 The United Kingdom. Just because it's unethical doesn't make it illegal, and being pregnant isn't an excuse to be a shit employee
I kind of want johnson to be my boss
Oh fiddlesticks
We've all been there.
Only 3??
I too just say words and think of the meaning later
Lmao 😂Mark so gutless
1:24 if i was mark i'd have said your fired gtfo straight after that bs
@El Matadores white Knight alert
If George Costanza was English…
Genuinely think Sophie outdoes Skyler from Breaking Bad as the most annoying female character on TV.
Greg Rodgers ooh, good comparison. Both insufferable characters
Skylar's worse, she's in every episode. Sophie doesn't show up anywhere near as often. Also shes not so annoying in the first season, only after they get together.
You’re saying that Sophie is annoying because she’s being fired while pregnant? You can’t exactly say she’s acting irrationally.
Maniac Meat skylers awesome, one of the most realistic characters on tv.
@J H I know, some men get so insecure about any women who isn't just subservient. They're complete imbeciles.
Shit im only on season 5 and stupidly clicked on this and saw the comments :(
"It happened, and I want a baby" is it just me or is that just plain selfish?
Sophie is unbearable, all other characters ale selfish but don't force life changing decisions on others. And then there's Sophie..
Yep, but her character is much more subtle because we don't hear what she thinks. When she says 'neither of us planned this but I want a baby' it pretty much means 'I planned this'
Wouldn't Mark be equally selfish if he pressured her to have an abortion so that he wouldn't need to take any responsibility?
There’s a version of this clip with Sophie’s thoughts instead of Mark’s here. It is absolutely insane how manipulative she is in it. Amazingly, even worse than him. ua-cam.com/video/oLyjvplaJxE/v-deo.html
What episode is this
Series 5 Episode 6
no thank you why do you do this
If she just found out she’s pregnant she’s more than likely still able to get an abortion, I don’t know why she’s freaking out so much. It’s not like she’s 8 months pregnant
Did Johnson call her "Jabba" as in "Jabba the Hutt" when he told Sophie to go in 😂
I think he said "chapman"
That moment just there at 2.04 is why some men dont like employing women. Just saying.
only three?
only 3
Biggest beta ever...
?
He means Mark!
She deserved it mate. Not only is she a drunken state who doesn't turn up for work, she also forces Mark to have a baby against his will for her own selfish desire to have kids when she clearly isn't fit to be a mother in the first place. Genuinely a terrible human being.
It would only be beta if it was someone else's child.
Sophie is soo annoying in this scene
Fwonkfwort
Only three?
in this situation mark should have stood up to his boss on behalf of sophie, right?
I'm trying to learn social skills
Yes, as it doesn't seem like she deserves to be fired. Alternatively if she did deserve it Mark should have stood up on his own behalf and told the boss to do the firing himself or have someone else do it as Mark and Sophie have had/still have a personal relationship and him having to fire her would put him in an awkward situation.
bleep bloop thx stranger
well, I'm trying to learn what NOT to do
But Johnson is right is he not?
Probably an unpopular opinion but I always thought Olivia Coleman's acting was poor in Peep Show and next to someone as good as David Mitchell it really shows up.
How so?
Yep, definitely unpopular
What on earth did Mark ever see in Sophie? She's just so awful in every possible way.
Is this the british version of The Office?
No, The Office is the British version of The Office.
This is called Peep Show and is extremely funny.
King Abdicate
It’s better and both are british
The office UK was made before the office US. This is peep show another good UK sitcom.
Paddy O'Toole what are you on about? The office is the British version of the office you clown? It was made before the American one??
he should've kicked her in the stomach
“Just got to say the right words, can think about what they mean later.”
He didn't even fire her what a hero I thought for sure he would
