When trying to think of a Midweek Mindbender to do, I couldn’t think of any shows that had been around long enough to warrant a quiz. Then it hit me that Peep Show has been around a lot longer than I tend to think. It still feels kinda new… despite the fact we’ve had 5 series of it! FIVE! So with that, and the show’s recent RTS win, I figured it was time…

1. The main pair in the show are called Mark and Jeremy… but what are their surnames?
2. What was the show originally going to be called before the writers settled on ‘Peep Show’?
3. This is Rachel Blanchard… she played who in the show?

4. Which big-haired comedian auditioned for the part of Super Hans but didn’t get the gig?
5. ‘The Hair Blair Bunch’, ‘Spunk Bubble’, and ‘Momma’s Kumquat’ were suggestions for what in the show?

Read over for the answers.

We’ve tried beating the IT staff to within an inch of their lives… but the comments still aren’t fixed. So while we hug them back to confidence, you send us your answers on paper planes, messages in bottles or, Tweet me if you like (@mofgimmers).

1. Corrigan and Usbourne/Osborne (weirdly, Channel 4 have used both for Jez)
2. POV
3. Nancy
4. Russell Brand
5. They were possible band names for Jez and Super Hans.
