Just been reading over at Wikipedia, apparently season 3 is meant to start Thursday 17th June. Hopefully this is correct..

I guess someone has since changed what Wikipedia was saying:

The third series started filming in April 2010, and took approximately six weeks to complete. It has been announced that it will be broadcast sometime in September.

This seems more likely if they did just finish filming the third season last month. A bit more of a wait there. :(

Simon Bird has reportedly refused to sign a contract to appear in the upcoming Inbetweeners film.

The actor - who plays Will McKenzie in the comedy series - is said to be holding out in the hope of receiving more money for the role.

However, Bwark Productions have planned to go ahead with the project without Bird, according to The Sun.

"The movie is definitely going ahead. It will start shooting in Malia, Crete later this month and then from November onwards," a source said.

"Simon's agents at Avalon won't accept the offer that Joe, James and Blake have all said they'd accept. So Bwark are moving on without Simon to pretty much call his agent's bluff. They sent out casting notes last week to show they are serious."

The insider added that Bird's plan may backfire if a better-known actor signs on to the role.

They added: "Simon's agents have always tried to push him as the star of the show and everyone's fed up with it. If some high-profile young actor won the role then Simon won't be in the film.

"Avalon will have to come crawling back to accept the offer. It's sad, but he has kind of shafted himself."

'Inbetweeners' exec denies film dispute

The Inbetweeners co-creator Iain Morris has dismissed reports suggesting that Simon Bird will not appear in a film version of the series.

It was previously reported that Bwark Productions were considering replacing Bird for the forthcoming movie, due to a dispute over the actor's pay.

However, Morris told a fan on Twitter: " wouldn't believe everything you read."

He added: "You can see photos of the lovely Simon Bird when I was with him yesterday."

A third series of The Inbetweeners will air on E4 later this year, with the film adaptation expected to follow.

Simon Bird 'agrees to Inbetweeners film'

Simon Bird has signed up to appear in the forthcoming Inbetweeners film, it has been revealed.

Bird, who was rumoured to be holding out to secure more money for the role, has begun filming in Malia, Crete this week, reports The Sun.

The 26-year-old is said to have accepted the role after programme makers Young Bwark Productions failed to meet his pay demands and put out a casting call for another actor to play the part of Will McKenzie.

A source said: "The original cast are all back together for the Inbetweeners film and have started work on the movie over in Crete.

"Simon is back on board and everyone's happy. He had to come back with his tail between his legs when the producers refused to bend over and concede his demands.

"As soon as the call went out for another actor, he decided to do it. Luckily for him, there was still lots of good will on the set and he is brilliant at the part."

The show's co-creator Iain Morris recently rubbished suggestions that there was any dispute between Bird and producers.

The Inbetweeners film will focus on Will's summer holiday abroad with friends Jay, Simon and Neil. Filming in London begins in November.

:D

    • The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
    • I call complete bs on this - no way your average joe / jane is using AI.
