The one-off special called Fwends Reunited saw the four main stars Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison and James Buckley back together. It was hosted on Channel 4 by Jimmy Carr in a chat and quiz show style format. The programme also had guest appearances from the supporting cast of the series which ran from 2008-2010 and spawned two films. However, viewers expressed disappointment and confusion at the instalment.

One fan wrote on Twitter: “So glad it wasn't just me and @1909_callum that thought the #inbetweeners reunion show was well weird. Whole thing came across awkward and like it had just been thrown together 5 mins beforehand." A second declared: “Just watched #FwendsReunited. Lordy it was awkward & uncomfortable to watch. No one of the cast seemed interested & often embarrassed by the show which made them all famous. “Shame it wasn’t a true reflection of people’s affection for the show. #inbetweenersreunion #inbetweeners.” “The #inbetweeners is such a brilliant show, it deserved a better 10 yr review, not the shambolic, cut & paste #FwendsReunited. Jimmy Carr was a poor choice for host. A waste of two hours,” a third vented. Meanwhile, there were others who thought the show was going to be a new episode of the series.

Cringe interviews and you could tell no one wanted to be there. “I thought it was gonna be a new episode how wrong could I be. Peter Andre turned up ffs think that explains everything wrong with it! #Inbetweeners.” Another tweeted: “I thought this was a new episode, not some random interview show & why Jimmy Carr?? Also very odd @EmAtack isn’t there, more so given that it’s just an interview panel show. So disappointed #inbetweeners #FwendsReunited “Should have just had neil Oliver doing a show about #inbetweeners i was expecting a new episode!” “Feel like we was conned, honestly thought it was going to be a episode or a short film, not a get together & a chat! The nation is disappointed! #FwendsReunited #Inbetweeners,” a third opined.
