Another one here that cant wait!
I love the film amd the first series!! Although i hope this series isnt quite as graphic as the last, but i guess thats just part of shane meadows hard hitting story lines.

Inbetweeners.
Beaten to it!


I read in Shortlist that during filming, they kept Vicky McClure locked away from the rest of the cast to increase the sense of isolation.....

Anyone else think some of these characters are totally unbelievable?

There's a grating juxtaposition between the desperation portrayed by the lass acting Lol and the sitcom dad character offering out olives. It don't work right.

Still enjoyable though.

Growing up where I did I saw this almost exact mix of people, in fact the film that started this was a bit too close to how we grew up...

Aha.

Ref characters, some extremes but its all done to show the diversity.
I can pretty much place all the characters from some point in my past, maybe not so extreme but all with the same traits.

SWMBO on the other hand thinks its all totally unbeievable.

That ending was creepy.

Makes a big difference to have a good hour of something to watch rather than the absolute st towie and pie peoples wedding - who really gives a fk about that nonsense.
