'Inbetweeners' movie in the works?

Simon Bird has hinted that an Inbetweeners movie could be on the horizon.

Speaking at this year's TV Quick & TV Choice Awards, where the E4 series was crowned best comedy show, the 25-year-old actor remained coy when asked if a film could be spawned from the television series, but confirmed that it is something the cast would love to do.

"I don't know - we're not allowed to say. It's not up to us. I mean, that's obviously a yes!" he said.

Blake Harrison, who plays Neil Sutherland, added: "There are loads of rumours going around about different things, but whether anything actually happens is a whole other story. We have loads of fun doing a series, so I think a film would be just as much fun."

Asked about possible storylines for the movie, Bird concluded: "I don't think we can give anything away. But there has been talk about [a film]!

"I'd like to see Will finally pop his cherry! Just more of the same, I think. If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

'Inbetweeners' writer confirms movie

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.

'Inbetweeners' Bird for new E4 pilot

Inbetweeners star Simon Bird has signed up for a new E4 pilot called Friday Night Dinner.

The comedy project, which also stars Tamsin Greig, Tom Rosenthal and Paul Ritter, centres on the Goodman parents and their sons Adam (Bird) and Jonny (Ritter) who go round to their parents' house for Friday night dinner.

The pilot has been written by Robert Popper, whose writing credits include BBC’s Harry & Paul and The Peter Serafinowicz Show.

He has also script-edited for IT Crowd, Peep Show series five and six and The Inbetweeners and produced series three and four of Peep Show.

I think if it's done in the same manner as most good british films are (i.e based a good story, maybe a school trip etc) then it would work but nothing fancy, nothing unbelievable. The joy i find in the show is that it reminds me of my school days where nothing was out of bounds or to rude to do/say.

It's a shame they are milking what was such a good series!

I think a film could milk it a bit but only if it works as I said it could be a 90 minute awesomefest or it could be a 90 minute crapfest :p

Blake Harrison has hinted that The Inbetweeners may come to an end after its third series. (Digital Spy)

His co-star James Buckley was recently quoted as saying the cast are "too old" to continue playing their respective roles, sparking reports that the show may not continue.

Speaking exclusively to DS, Harrison did little to dispel the rumours, suggesting that a fourth series "would be quite contrived".

"As far as I'm aware for the next series we're moving into the upper sixth and it would be incredibly contrived to have them all at the same university so it depends how long the third series spans for.

"If they span it for just a term or two maybe there will be another series but if they span it for the whole year I think it would be quite weird if there was another series. They wouldn't all end up at the same uni - obviously - so it would be quite contrived."

Sorry, but I wouldn't see a problem with them being in Uni.

Would be a bit weird I think, all 4 at the same University. I think Will would annoyed that Neil got into the same University as him...

I think it should end on this rumoured movie.

Head promises "funnier" 'Inbetweeners'

Emily Head has claimed that the third series of The Inbetweeners is the funniest yet.

Head, who stars as Carli D'Amato in the comedy, told The Mirror that she doesn't expect much romance in the show.

"How much romance can there be with those four boys, really?" she said.

"There's going to be a lot of swearing, as always, a bit of the boys getting naked, again, always fun, and pretty much the same that we've had before, but funnier, I think - I think this series is definitely funnier."

Head also revealed that she wants to make a fourth series of the programme.

"It kind of depends how long they want to have a span of the series," she said. "I'd like to think we've got another one in us, but it may be the end - we're not sure."

Blake Harrison has previously suggested that a fourth series of The Inbetweeners would be "quite contrived".

    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.

The TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 drive and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
