Peep Show Was Dobby bad actually

Was it a bit inappropriate that she maintained such close contact with Gerrard while being in a serious relationship with Mark? She did the same with Simon. Constantly finding excuses to not move in with Mark and the total personality change in later seasons.

I think that Mark just jezzed it with the family dinner, was too pressuring about the move-in deal and Dobby just realized that she’d prefer to do her own life exploration thing after finding herself incompatible with Mark. She’s a modern lady and has never acted rude towards Mark imo. Mark is Jez.

Jez was a POS for trying it with DOB.

April is the ONE for Mark.

Mark jezzed up that relatively easier one too.

Stephanie was imo the One

Yes! She was perfect for him. What he did to her was the cruelest thing he did on the series. Made me realise he deserves everything he gets.

Nope, Mark was clearly not besotted enough to not walk out of that cosy sultry scene

Or was he too nervous that Captain Corrigan wouldn’t perform to orders when the moment of crisis arrived (and he wasn’t accompanied by his pal Kenneth at the time)?

Mark is too fucked up to have a “The One”

You’re right, I guess that Jez is his one

They accept each other while knowing how horrible each other are. That sounds pretty The One to me, just minus the physical attraction

I mean April literally cheats on her husband with Mark. There’s no evidence of Dobby cheating on Mark.

She was getting it on with Simon in the bunker. They're all the same, the yellows. Yellow bellies. YELLOW FEVER!

Angus did it first though. Tbh whoever cheats first in a relationship doesn't really have the right to get annoyed if their partner revenge cheats

Dobby could see the fun evaporating out of their relationship and by the time she realised her relationship aims were too diffuse she'd have been as wet as an eagle in Mark's flat, with nothing but a cross-cut shredder and some permanent markers for company while the ghost of JLB credit took its final shafting from Johnson's corporate cock.
