Thursday Morning Riddle
I’m a colleague who edits, or papers review;
I’m a juror in theory; stare narrowly through;
I am one of your friends that puts pressure on you;
And a status of rank that a Brit ascends to.
Who am I?
UPDATE: Riddle solved by Asher. See comments for answer.

It’s always hard for me to judge how hard these are.
Here’s the breakdown, in case others are stumped:
Line 1: Peer edit, Peer review
Line 2: A jury of one’s peers, the verb “to peer”
Line 3: Peer pressure
Line 4: A peer in the UK is someone who is a member of the nobility, like a duke or an earl.
