Peep Show gets 7th series

...with the 6th not yet aired

A seventh series of Peep Show has been ordered – before the sixth has even aired.

Channel 4’s entertainment and comedy head Andrew Newman confirmed the news to trade magazine Broadcast this week.

Series six is due to air this summer, with the next one now slated for 2010.

The programme debuted in 2003, and although it has never been a huge ratings hit has always garnered critical appeal.

Newman has also commissioned a second series of sketch format The Kevin Bishop Show, which will also air this autumn.

And he is also in talks over a second series of the sitcom Plus One and a fourth run of Graham Linehan’s The IT Crowd.
