This show has to be the best sitcom on telly at the moment. British comedy at its best and this sitcom rivals if not betters, Gimme Gimme Gimme-which in my opinon, was the last greatest British sitcom.

The Inbetweeners is based on the lives of four teenage lads, all round 17/18 years old, and go to the local secondary-slash-sixth form; Rudge Park Comprehensive. As they go through the year they face the usual trials and tribulations of being a 17 year old male; mainly sex, girls, partying, drinking and trying, and failing, to stay popular. E4's hilarious comedy brings the mixture of Superbad and Peep Show, and place it all within a Grange Hill setting. To do that isn't easy but somehow E4 manage to do it with all the grace and finesse of a bull in a china shop but it has to be THE BEST SHOW ON TV, for both of the two series, as it perfectly shows the up and downs of teenage life and overall disappoint of teenage adolesance in a normal, suburban background.

Will (expertly played by the brillant Simon Bird) is the briefcase carrying, glasses wearing, posh speaking nerdy main character, and at the start of series 1 joins Rudge Park Comprehensive after his father leaves his mother and he has to leave his relative selcusion and sosphistcation of his private school to join the working class, and in his words worse, that is Rudge Park Comprehensive. He quickly befriends Simon (Joe Thomas)- the loveable yet sometimes socially inept guy who has a long time crush on his neighbour Carly, Neil (Blake Harrison)-the loveable idiot and Jay (James Buckley)- the crude, sex obessed exaggarates an awful lot, three friends who are stuck firmly in te gulf betwwen the popular kids and the outcasts.

The inbetweeners truely is a fantastic show, one that definatley shouldn't be missed and with its crude humour, plenty of your mum jokes and sexual innuendoes that truely makes it a cut above any other teenage sitcoms.

Summary: Truely a classic that shouldn't be missed!
