Roll on 11 o'clock. Looked like a London street judging by the road sign on the side of the house. I wonder why they used Warwick? Not so far to be believable?? Anyhow, tourettes ''sex'' at 11pm
Yes, it was a London roadsign on the side of the house, and the building.
The style of the house looked as if it was West LLondon, possibly in the Shepherds Bush/North Kensington area.
Why omn earth did Simon listen to Jay about sex advice?
This is the one aspect I didn't get. Surely they've all cottoned on to Jay by now? You can understand Neil hanging on his every word but I thought Simon was a little brighter than that!
Nevertheless the best episode of the series so far for me. Lots of great moments. Neil pissing in the bed was hilarious.
I'm surprised nobody's picked up on the glaring error of the episode. Warwick University isn't actually in Warwick - it's in Coventry and the majority of its students live in and around the campus, in Coventry.
For the record, the Uni was built on land just outside the then-city boundary that was owned by Warwickshire County Council. A deal was struck that the university would take the name of the county town, Warwick - and a confusion was birthed that goes on to this day. Warwick railway station still gets people wandering up and down outside asking where the university is.
When it was first mentioned in the episode and then several times before they actually got there, I thought it was being set up as a gag. I thought the lads were going to turn up in Warwick while Tara waited in Coventry 10 miles away!
any queries I ever have about an episode are put to bed as soon as Jay opens his mouth. From his first lines in last night's episode about the boy 'arse-raped' after getting stuck in the bottle bank, to "You need a plan - a bloke I know went in too fast in his first time and broke his knob in half", I'm just in stitches with everything he says.
And I am SO playing that drinking game! Fantastic episode as always - only 2 left! No!!!

This. Jay is just such a great character and I don't know about you but someone MUST know or have heard some of the stuff Jay comes out with. I have!

Jay is the best character on the show. They're all appealing and funny in their own ways, but Jay is the most prominent IMO. His lies have been shown to be a desperate effort to conceal his vulnerability and uncertainties, which the actor conveys with wonderful facial expressions. He's always being subtly (and unsubtly) undermined by his father. His ending to season 2 was a pivotal moment for the character.
As this is probably the final series I'd love to see Jay actually get some 'clunge' in the last episode. Or would that spoil it?
I just watched it during lunch and nearly choked as I was laughing so much.
Uni version wouldnt work as everyone goes to different places & would Neil get in anywhere?
Maybe they could do a holiday special during univ holidays?
Never let real life authenticity concerns get in the way of a good comedy - dont uni's take on a quota of special needs pupils?? I dont know, im sure they'll figure out something.

He wouldn't even really need to be at the uni though would he? He could just be living with them or something.
Maybe the rumoured one off special that's supposed to take place after the movie will focus on Freshers week. I can just see Jay's reaction to the abundance of "fresher clunge", lol.
Considering it's such a ratings winner for E4, i can't see them letting it die now, not when it's just become "massive" for them. I don't want them to run it into the ground, but i don't think it's near that stage yet anyway.
There hasn't been nearly enough of Mr Gilbert this series
Too true He's a fantastic character, they need to use him more. Although this series has been set a lot more outside of school hasn't it, so I guess there's no way of writing him in.
Thought this weeks was great, possibly the best of this series so far.
I watched with the parents tonight and my uncle. They were cracking up. So funny... uncle was loving it. My mum thought it worse than american pie and my dad was in knots. Just so funny. My mum thought it was a heap of crap, as most mothers do, til I pointed out that you can watch skins which is really over the top and rough and watch the inbetweeners and laugh and realise that its a lot truer to life and does not go out to shock
I'm a mum and I watched with my teenage boys( the eldest has just started 6th form college)...

i agree a season based on uni would be hillarious aswell
And the final hungover 'beepbebeepbeepbeep' from Jay was brilliant.
Did his folks not get back together in the same episode?
I'm sure his dad came downstairs in his mums dressing gown asking Simon for condoms.

Very true
Maybe it turns out that Mr Gilbert is the guy Will's mum is going off to meet in next week's episode

This series hasn't won me over yet. I'm hoping it will next week as it looks good

Still hilarious, but no where near as funny as it was in its first series.
Yes, that was good and easy to miss!
Too true

So tempted to shout "Waterside"!!!

This made me nearly fall off the sofa laughing
Finally! Someone else who see's it as well. It makes his character very unlikable.
