The Inbetweeners


I have just discovered The Inbetweeners and I love it.

The Inbetweeners is a British sit-com about four teenage boys living in England and attending the local comprehensive high-school.

Will has just moved from a private school and insists on wearing his blazer as well as carrying a briefcase with him. Unsurprisingly, he is bullied and therefore attracts the other mis-fits/ uncool kids, cue: Simon, Neil and Jay.

The Inbetweeners details the foursome's mis-adventures and attempts at picking up girls with a crass and politically incorrect approach, but one that you can't help but laughing at.

Jokes about Neil's dad being gay and Mum-jokes about Will's mother are recurrent and ingenious, and Jay's ability to bull-shit is astounding.


If you liked Summer Heights High or We Can be Heroes, or even Skins you will LOVE The Inbetweeners.

The music in the show is amazing - The Wombats, The Kooks, Calvin Harris, Vampire Weekend and Darwin Deez all feature throughout the series.

Have a look here to view one of the funny snippets from the show, which is currently in its third (and possibly final) season. However, a movie of the show is being filmed at the moment which will be about the boys going on holiday together.
