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

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
