'In-Betweeners' Bullshitter Character : A Further Question In Three Parts
Why was the "My Uncle Was A Hollywood Stuntman" stuff funny in series 1 and 2 and not funny at all in series 3?

Is this an indication that such claims have an extemely finite shelf life, casting fleeting glimpses as they do on the contempt the teller has for the listener with each occurrence, ultimately moving the relationship from passive to impassive by degree?

Or did the writers of the show get a whiff of a feature length special later this year and say 'oh fuck we'd better start rationing this shit as the other three jokes we use over and over again have already stretched fourteen episodes beyond their elastic limit', and held back?

Hmmmm.

They should have called it a day
after series 1. After that, the characters just became charicatures of themselves. Except for Will, he still got all the best lines.

they filmed bits of the last series in the park at the end of my garden. Imagine my surprise while staring at the telly blankly one friday night last year, suddenly realising... fuck me that's my garden that is!

highlight of the series for me!

Couple this experience with a lookup of the word 'vagina' in Roger's Profanasaurus and repeat for six half hours and there's your series 4.
