The Inbetweeners

Simon, who normally sticks to a clear set of personal principles, is forced to confront them when his new girlfriend presents an unusual condition: she’ll only kiss him if he’s willing to let her completely redesign his wardrobe. The proposition puts his sense of autonomy against his desire for affection. At the same time, Will finds himself debating whether to invest his time in a date he finds dull and unengaging, questioning if the evening’s worth pursuing. Both characters are left weighing personal preferences against external expectations, each facing a small but telling dilemma about compromise and choice, in the end.

Simon decides to join his girlfriend Tara for a short trip to the university where her sister is studying, intending simply to spend a few hours visiting her. The two set off together, looking forward to a brief family catch‑up in the campus surroundings. Meanwhile, the other boys hear about the plan and quickly devise excuses, hoping they can tag along with Simon and Tara on the journey. Their attempts to insert themselves become the centre of the comedy, with each fabricated reason adding to the chaos of the outing. The episode is presented as a light‑hearted comedy and features Joe Thomas in the cast.

When his mother leaves for the weekend, Will finds himself alone at home. Rather than simply waiting for her return, he resolves to make the most of the unexpected freedom, turning the quiet house into a temporary playground and embracing the chance to do as he wishes. His plan is to exploit the empty house, letting him test the independence he seldom gets. The premise is presented as a comedy, with the humour driven by the performances of Simon Bird and Joe Thomas. Both actors lead the episode, their interactions and timing underscoring the light‑hearted tone as Will navigates his solo weekend. The comedy hinges on the duo’s chemistry, keeping the scenario amusing.

Will arranges a camping excursion for his friends as a final get‑together before they each head off on their own separate paths. He hopes the outdoor outing will serve as a proper send‑off, yet his companions—Jay, Neil and Simon—turn out to be completely unready for life in the wilderness. Their lack of preparation quickly shows itself once they confront the realities of the great outdoors, from setting up tents to coping with the elements. The contrast between Will’s well‑intentioned plan and the trio’s inexperience becomes evident, underscoring how unprepared they are for the challenges that a simple camping trip can present.
