Simon Bird has unveiled storyline details for the movie adaptation of The Inbetweeners.

The actor, who plays Will McKenzie in the E4 comedy, said that the plot will centre around a holiday to Malia.

He told NME: "What we do know is that it's going to be about a lads' holiday after they've finished their A-levels.

"They go to Malia and it will have everything you'd expect it to have. Girls, drinking, I imagine some male nudity, vomiting, some p*ssing yourself, some s**tting yourself. I imagine there will be some discussions about my mum's t*ts."

Writer Iain Morris confirmed the movie's existence to DS last year. Bird will be joined by co-stars Joe Thomas, James Buckley and Blake Harrison.

The Inbetweeners' final ever episode airs next Monday at 10pm on E4.

I laughed my ass off at the last episode... mainly because I'm from Lincoln and it is indeed a ###### :laugh:

The funny thing is how offended people have gotten, people have been writing into the Lincolnshire Echo complaining about it and the main inbetweeners cast have even been invited to come and visit Lincoln! The world would be so much better if people lightened up a bit.

So what did you think to the final episode?

Was a bit weird at the end, but don't get me wrong, was a great episode. Just can't believe that's it..well the movie and that's it.

Sometimes, it's a pretty fine line between a show growing old, and being retired too early. I believe they could have either made it work with either one more series, or a couple of extra episodes on this one. It just feels too... unfinished.

The shows never been like that, it never has character development or big story plot points. It is just a comedy that you can enjoy. I don't think it needed a big ending to signal that show is no more because it still isn't confirmed that it is finished, also like i mentioned, the show has never been like that. If the movie is a big success, i can definitely see the show coming back, maybe in the form of specials or one more series.

The cast keep saying it will be weird if they kept going but i can't see basing it from uni would be weird.

its sad there is no more! (other then a film)

I thought Bird said they were doing the film, then looking at a special to tie it all up?

either that or extend the length of the episodes, excluding adverts you get like 25 minutes of inbetweeners viewing, which is 2 and a half hours over the course of the series... The first break is on you so quick and then your just getting into it then it finishes... there is no time for a story to develop which is why it feels unfinished.

it's an amazing programme but could of been so much better if there was a bigger story thrown in around the humour to extend it's life.

Hit sitcom The Inbetweeners ended on a record high last night, with nearly three million viewers tuning in to watch the four characters go on a camping trip.

A total of 2.96 million watched the sitcom on E4 and E4+1, setting a new record for the digital station. The ratings were more than eight times the average for the timeslot on the channel, drawing a 14% share of the total audience across all channels. According to the overnight figures, only the news managed to draw a higher audience, with The Inbetweeners helping E4 to beat terrestrial channels including BBC Two, which was showing Genius With Dave Gorman.

The third series of the youth-orientated comedy has consistently broken records, with an impressive average of 2.45 million watching the six-part series.

E4 are clearly keen to commission more episodes, but it remains unclear as to whether there will be another series. A feature length special, in which the lads go on their first holiday together without their parents, is currently being edited together, and a post-movie special has been planned, but there is uncertainty as to whether there will be a fourth series.

Although they haven't categorically ruled out doing another series, writers Damon Beesley and Iain Morris have previously said they're not sure going beyond the post-movie special as the next chapter would see the characters moving on to university or getting jobs, making it harder to find plots where the four are still together. Beesley said: "In our minds, we've always thought that this series, this (school) year, is obviously the closing of the story. They are going to disappear and go off to different universities. It's very unlikely Neil is going to go. We want to finish the stories off by picking up with the characters after their holiday."

Agreed, I felt there was plenty of room for expansion

    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
