Are there any fans of The Inbetweeners?

It is a hilariously funny series based on 4 friends in 6th form in school. This show has been said to be basically a cross between American Pie and Peep Show.

This is a clip from season 1.

I think this show is funny as hell and im not sure if it is very well known or not. But I do recommend it to everyone, it is a real good laugh.


The Inbetweeners is a BAFTA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Academy_Television_Awards) nominated British sitcom (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitcom) about a group of teenage friends struggling through sixth form (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sixth_form) at school. Written by Damon Beesley (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damon_Beesley) and Iain Morris (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iain_Morris), the show was the first comedy specially produced for the digital terrestrial television (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_terrestrial_television) channel E4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E4_(channel)).[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_inbetweeners#cite_note-Indep-2) E4 originally aired the first series in May 2008, and Channel 4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_4) also broadcast it in November that year. The series follows Will (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_McKenzie) (Simon Bird (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Bird)), who left a private school (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_school) to go to Rudge Park Comprehensive due to his recently divorced mother's financial troubles.[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_inbetweeners#cite_note-3) It is set in a typical suburb (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suburb) in Outer London. It gets its name, The Inbetweeners, from a social class (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_class) of teenagers – people who are not cool enough to be popular but not geeky enough to be nerds.[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_inbetweeners#cite_note-4)
The second series began on 2 April 2009 and finished on 7 May 2009.


There currently 2 seasons and im hoping for more.

I don't know, but I'm really hoping they do another one, it's the funniest thing on Channel 4 next to Peep Show.

Catch up on series 1 & 2 here (http://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-inbetweeners/4od)

Ive got the double boxset I bought it when it was released and I love the show it is awesome. The only problem I have with the show is it is only 6 episodes per series :( but I think another series would be great!

What a great show, so many cringy moments where you just want to look away. I love how Jay is reffered to as a borderline sexpest.

I have just found this and I do hope it is true:

In September 2009, Beesley and Morris confirmed that a film had been comissioned by Film4 and the story will revolve around the four lads going on holiday.[12] (http://www.movieforums.com/community/#cite_note-11) The creators also stated that Simon Bird (Will) and Joe Thomas (Simon) had written a script for the film which was said to be "annoyingly funnier" than theirs.
From Wikipedia.

Yep, there's a new (third) series commissioned for next year. E4 confirmed it last month.

A few words about the film.

Inbetweeners writer Iain Morris has confirmed that a movie of the show is in the works.

Speaking exclusively to DS, Morris said that a script has been written, but they are yet to receive funding for the project.

"We've written a film script because for me, the most defining experience of an 18-year-old boy is when you go on your first holiday with your mates," he said. "That would be exciting."

He added: "I don't know how films work - I've never made a film before. We're written a script so we're just hoping Film4 will say, 'Here's the money, here's the helicopter, now go to Tenerife and film it!'

"I think there'll probably have to be a few more conversations before that happens!"

The Inbetweeners returns for its third series in 2010.

Anyone watching the 3rd season? It's stayed pretty solid and not lessened with greater popularity. Definitely worth watching, captures the adolescent attitude better than almost anything else i've seen- for better or worse. Certainly dispells the ridiculous myths Skins perpetuates about the age range. Think most apt comparison is to Superbad.
