'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.

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".

    • Classic 7 is Windows 10 LTSC cosplaying as Windows 7

      Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.

      +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
