Default Simon Bird: ‘The Inbetweeners wouldn’t be made today’



Wokery at work

On The Inbetweeners, he is less equivocal. “I honestly think it wouldn’t be
commissioned today,” he says. Because of the sexism? “Yeah, and the casual
homophobia,” he adds. “I rationalise it to myself by saying that at the time it
was an accurate representation of the way teenagers talk to each other. Is that
still the case now? I assume not. Although the programme was set in the
2000s, it was based on a pilot set in 1990, so even in the 2000s it wasn’t really
an accurate reflection of how teenagers spoke.”
