Jeff is just saying what everyone else is thinking about Mark

Jeff from Peep Show is one of the great sitcom villains - or is he? What if he is just a normal bloke, and Mark Corrigan is actually the psychopath. Neil Fitzmaurice  - aka the actor that plays Jeff - is currently starring in the BBC Two comedy Semi-Detached, so we got to (virtually) sit down with him and discuss the creation of the character - from how Neil was originally brought in to read for Super Hans (that would have been a very different show), to why he always tried to play Jeff as a real person and not a cartoon villain. https://twitter.com/JOE_co_uk/status/1296826331204812800  Semi-Detached is on 10pm on Thursdays, BBC Two and on iPlayer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPHSybB2j8k
