BETTER THAN SERIES 1?! Americans React "The Inbetweeners - S2E1 - The Field Trip"

[@matthewvivian7235]

In the UK, I always typically had: Summer holidays - 6 or 7 weeks (late July to early September-ish) Half term - 1 week (late October-ish) Christmas holidays - 2 weeks (late December to early January) Half term - 1 week (late February-ish) Easter holidays - 2 weeks (late March to early April) Half term - 1 week (June-ish)

[@EmpyreanSasarai]

This is pretty standard across the UK

[@jase6709]

Don't forget the odd Monday or Friday for bank holidays. It works out around 13 weeks a year, give or take.

[@will1856]

At an independent school in the UK I had: Summer holiday - 8 or 9 weeks (Summer term ended on 7th July, Michaelmas term started September 5th) October half term - 2 weeks Christmas holiday - 4 weeks (start of December to start of January) February half term - 1 week Easter holiday - 3 weeks June half term - 2 weeks

By law they are not allowed to show more than 12 minutes of adverts/ commercials per hour. Here in the the UK. It’s divided up to roughly 3 minutes worth, about every 15 minutes. So for a show like the Inbetweeners. There will be 1 break in the middle lasting a few minutes, and then one after.

[@rizron95]

A general school year is Sept-July. 1 week off at end of Oct 2 weeks off around Christmas and New Year. 1 week off in Feb 2 weeks off at Easter time. 1 week off at end of May 6 weeks off from Mid July to Sept ready for the new school year Of course it varies a little depending on what area of UK you are in

[@jazzx251]

Yes - that's quite common for short non-BBC shows like this in the UK, to have a single 3-minute commercial break, tidily inserted into the middle of the episode. The makers of the show know exactly when the break will be, and can adjust the editing and script to make it as tidy as possible

In Scotland it is slightly different to what others have said. 2 weeks in March / April for Easter 6 weeks from very end June to Mid August for Summer 10 days approx in October 2 weeks at Christmas to New Year (Plus random long weekends, in-service days (where teachers go in but students dont) throughout year.

We have 2 weeks off at Easter and Christmas as well as something called bank Holidays where schools and businesses close on either a Friday or a Monday. We also get 6 weeks off from July to the beginning of September and the rest of the school year is divided up into 6 week segments broken up by 1 or 2 week holidays. Basically in a typical UK school year we have about 200 days of school.

Fair play for sporting the northern Irish accent! That’s remarkable for an American to spot that! The easiest way to tell is the pronunciation of the “ou” sound in words like “round” or “pound”. Northern Irish will pronounce it more like “roiynd” or “poiynd”.

Your pretty much spot on for UK shows and commercials. A 'half hour' show would usually consist of a commercial or two before it starts; a break halfway through of a few minutes for commercials; the second half of the show; then some more commercials before the next programme.

Our school years are split into 3 terms and each term into two halves. Kids get a break at half term and the end of term. First term is September to Christmas, then two weeks off. Second term is January to Easter, then another 2 weeks off. Final term is May to mid July with a 6 week summer holiday at the end of it. Kids also get a week off in the middle of each term meaning they get about 13 weeks off per year in total. There are also a few inset days which get tagged onto the beginning or end of school holidays. These are days where the kids are off school but the teachers go in and use the days for training and prep work. Kids also get statutory bank holidays off, although they usually fall within main school holidays anyway.

[@elsing_may06]

It's funny because although they claim to be on a geography trip to Swanage, they actually filmed in a completely different area. I actually have been on a geography trip to Swanage and it's a lot more scenic, also a brilliant summer spot.

Your conversation about adverts: we have far fewer adverts in UK than USA. There is a 2.5 mins ad break half way through a 25 min show, then another 2.5 mins at the end. So in an hour, we have 20 mins adverts, over 4 breaks.

Please hurry to watch the next 2! Work Experience and Will's birthday are such great episodes. Tbh there's not one I dislike through the whole 3 series, but Will's birthday is a particular favourite of mine. The end of the third series is when they finish school so it was an obvious place to end it, which I'm glad about because there's nothing worse than when a good show goes downhill, which they tend to do after about the 4th season. There are 2 films after the last series, both involving holidays (vacations to you ☺️) and they were right to stop there. The first film is the better one, but the second is still very good and there's a moment at the very end everyone absolutely loves, perfect ending for those involved, I'll be interested to see if you know which one I mean ☺️
