The Inbetweeners

Episode 1.1

It's a fresh start for Will McKenzie as he joins his new sixth form college. Will previously went to a private school, but since his dad walked out on his mum he's had to downgrade to the local comprehensive.

And if life wasn't already tough enough, Will quickly makes enemies of his psychotic head of sixth and the school nut case. In a vain effort to fit in, Will soon attaches himself to a fairly average group - Simon, Jay and Neil - and tags along with them as they attempt to get served at a pub for the first time ever.
