The Inbetweeners

[Kevin D]

Simon: I'd like to put my cock in them both.

 

Will: That's a touching sentiment.

 

Jay: I'd be touching your mum's sentiment.

 

Will: That doesn't mean anything.

 

Jay: It means I'd touch her bumhole... with my cock.

 

Will: Nice one.

Been watching this again, since the first time it aired.

 

I really enjoyed it the first go around and I was a but nervous that it wouldn't hold up, as a lot of the humour is shock based and not necessarily that sophisticated. Pleasantly surprised that I was well wrong, it's still very funny I think it's because you're laughing at, rather than with, them; coupled with the fact trying to impress your mates and prove yourself are universal traits that change a bit as you get older but still have that high school aspect about them.

 

Discussing who you're attracted to, drinking, enjoying your friends pain and one liners that take the piss are always going to part of your friendship.

Bit too jazzy for me.

One of the reasons it's so good is because it is, by an absolute distance, the most accurate depiction of the British school experience there's ever been on screen. I used to scoff when critics would label shite like Grange Hill as realistic, when they were nothing of the sort. They were about as true to life as St Trinians. But someone finally got it right.

Are you suggesting that you were a virgin that shit himself in an exam?

[Kevin D]

Simon: (drunk) Kiss me.

 

Carly: Simon, you know I've got a boyfriend.

 

Simon: Just finger yourself in front of me.

 

Carly: Jesus Simon!

 

Simon: They do it in caravan club.

Stronts has a point, its very realistic and I'm certain most people can relate it to the various characters at school.

Been rewatching this lately. The older I get the more I appreciate it, especially considering I was the same age when it first came out. I think everyone has known or been all of those four characters at some point in their lives. 

 

I think my favourite exchange in the whole show is in the episode when they're going on a school trip to Swannage and they're waiting to get on the coach. 

 

"We should get some booze or try and get off with the local girls." 

 

"Everything we're shit at here but by the seaside?"

The film is genius, it's a lad's holiday through and through. It made me want to go on one again even though I'd have a six month hangover.

Best scene in the film is when Simon and Jay try to have a fight but are just holding eachother awkwardly in headlocks not throwing any digs. It really is how the majority of people at school who were mates but couldn't fight would scrap.

Yeah I'm surprised it's not had shit yet, was thinking that watching the film the other day with the looky looky men.

Just because Kevin's gay it doesn't make him a paedophile

It shouldn't be though, rightly or wrongly it is of its time, as mentioned above regarding the lads holiday for example, I have never seen a show so accurately depict what it was like to be a 16/17 British schoolkid from anywhere between the mid 80's up to ten years ago when it was made.

That's why it does get away with it I think, because it's pointing out the absurdity of kids behaviour.

 

Compared to Little Britain, for example, that laughed at the stereotype (amongst other things).

So did I and i agree about there being loads of Will's there. I, however, was 100% Jay. Which as it turned out, was worse, as i ended up being "asked not to come back" after my O Levels for getting absolutely hammered on my auld fellas home brew one afternoon and then sauntering into school with my two mates (who were in a way worse state than me) and acting like an absolute whopper.
