The Inbetweeners - S1 E1 First Day
Added 2025-01-11 15:00:08 +0000 UTCComments
Though this is a good introduction to the series, it's the one that that bugs me the most. Jay was served, therefore an adult, but the barman refused to serve him the drinks for his friends or state the rules. On top of this, Will for some reason called on the adult at the bar (Steve) to assist rather than Jay, who already got served. This scene still annoys me today as it makes no sense and not many people pick on this, lol.

2025-05-04 12:35:26 +0000 UTCTom (Carleys boyfriend) isn't a student. It's the trope of upper school girls going out with much older guys. We have a few of them in my school. One girl was going out with a 28 year old when we were in sixth form. We don't do the whole holding people back until they pass business that you do.

2025-01-30 20:15:46 +0000 UTCThe guy you were thinking of is Will Poulter. Also an English actor even though he mostly plays an American.

2025-01-23 22:24:08 +0000 UTCFruit machines have different names across the UK but most will know what you mean. I grew up as them being puggies or bandits. But yeah, a slot machine. They're pretty much in every pub and a lot of chip shops may have 1 too. Usually pubs have 1 though, not a line of them or anything like that. The game they were playing in the second pub was just a trivia based game, they wouldn't get called fruit machines or fruities.

2025-01-14 15:01:53 +0000 UTCYes! I wish this show wasn't accurate for many teens in the UK at that time!

2025-01-14 13:06:43 +0000 UTCI joined just for these haha, your reactions are great, the cringe is perfect! It's cool you're checking out more than one show as well! Peep Show would be a fun one to try, it's got its fair share of cringe too =]

On the show Please, ….Do not blur anything in the episodes Because it can ruin the joke only for Patreon YouTube is different

2025-01-11 19:52:35 +0000 UTCThis was absolutely a massive mainstream TV show here in 2008 - 2019. You'll learn a whole new vocabulary. A pint here is slightly larger than a US pint. 'Gash' is probably the word you were thinking of - and you can probably work out what it means. Oh yeah plenty of girls were like that at my school

2025-01-11 18:19:40 +0000 UTCWe don't graduate from grades here - we have 'years' where you just move up as you get older - if you're exceptionally bright you can move up a year early but that's not common.

2025-01-11 18:09:47 +0000 UTCThink of a pub as a shared lounge / front room (literally short for public house) so it's more of a community hub than a bar which is more or less purely for alcohol - as you say they are very different entities and have different connotations and cultures. Some pubs have carveries, but most don't, although country pubs especially are often known for doing good Sunday roasts - some town pubs too though.

2025-01-11 18:05:31 +0000 UTCThere's a series of sketches (and a movie) about Kevin the Teenager that Harry Enfield did - the character is iconic and what you described is often referred to as 'being a Kevin' here. This is the first sketch https://youtu.be/dLuEY6jN6gY?si=ZelHTBKwy9yJ-MFm

2025-01-11 17:56:42 +0000 UTCOver here you have to develop a thick skin in school or you won’t last, you have to be able to take the piss and take it back. It lasts all the way through to adulthood, if you meet someone new and they take the piss it’s like a friendship test, if you respond well you’ve got a friend for life. You might like Kalyn she’s done some good videos on this and on pub culture, her channel is Girl Gone London.

2025-01-11 17:45:28 +0000 UTCI think the actor you are talking about from Meet The Millers, is Will Poulter, I think the last thing I saw him in was The Bear, and I hope your sitting down, he's an English actor...lol

2025-01-11 17:42:15 +0000 UTCThey're in '6th Form' which is 16-18 where you do 3-4 A-levels in subjects relevant to what you want to study at University - here we don't major but study one (or at most two) specific subjects. So I did nothing but history for 3 years.

2025-01-11 17:38:23 +0000 UTCThis is so accurate as to how school was in England in the late 90s / early 2000s.

2025-01-11 17:28:38 +0000 UTCI’ve seen this show so many times and with other reactors but even I was cringing for Jess, but I do think by the end of this season it will be normal to you. The song at the end was The Libertines - Don’t look back into the sun

2025-01-11 17:26:37 +0000 UTCI have a feeling the word you were unsure of was ‘gash’ maybe? Which means female genitalia 😂, or is a crude way of referring to women
Cem
2025-01-11 16:56:05 +0000 UTCAlso just checked and “Superbad”was before this which is a movie I haven’t watched, yet.

2025-01-11 16:32:19 +0000 UTCCouldn't wait and had to watch straight away 😂, and yes as Bobby said the 2 movies were made after the show had finished!, neil is brilliant as it goes on!

2025-01-11 16:31:53 +0000 UTCOn the pub question, the two featured are typical of out-of-town/village pubs. Yes, many do serve food. In the village where I grew up there were three pubs surrounding the small village pond. You would just pick one as your ‘local’ and stick with it. Pubs have quizzes, darts teams and even football teams that play in proper leagues. Of course, town and city pubs are different, but even in big cities you will find traditional ‘locals’ like this. No loud music, maybe a TV but generally places to meet, talk and have a laugh.

Rob G
2025-01-11 16:18:13 +0000 UTCBrilliant! Your reactions quadrupled the comedy level of an already legendary show. Neil emerges as one of the funniest characters ever to appear in a TV show, but they are all hilarious in their own way. The song at the end which Jess liked is Don’t Look Back Into The Sun by The Libertines, and is typical of a whole catalogue of British music which very much went under the radar in the USA (where Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Queen are more popular).
Thomas
2025-01-11 16:03:02 +0000 UTCBoth movies should be watched after the end of season 3. The movies came out afterwards.

2025-01-11 16:00:48 +0000 UTCWe've gotta keep you on your toes!
RegenerationNationTV
2025-01-11 15:57:50 +0000 UTCWe plan to. Is there a proper time/order for watching the movies?
RegenerationNationTV
2025-01-11 15:56:50 +0000 UTCI love this very exciting 👏🏻. I was at university in 2008 and one of the other students told me about this as her husband was a producer on it. I got home and put it on the tv and was hooked.

2025-01-11 15:56:44 +0000 UTCGreat reaction

2025-01-11 15:06:25 +0000 UTCI wasnt expecting this! Absolutely legendary show. Yeah you have been warned haha. I hope its not too much for you.
Bobby K
2025-01-11 15:04:11 +0000 UTCHope you do every episode and the movies I've watched it through so many times with different American reactors 😂 not seen your reaction yet will watch later 😁
