He'll be talking The Inbetweeners and much more at this very special evening with actor and comedian Joe Thomas on Saturday 28th February 2026.
It wasn’t long after audiences were first introduced to hapless sixth-formers Will McKenzie, Neil Sutherland, Jay Cartright and Simon Cooper that The Inbetweeners became one of the nation’s best-loved shows. With its endlessly quotable lines and outrageous laugh-per-second banter, the sitcom attracted record-breaking viewing figures and inspired two incredibly successful feature films.
Eighteen years since the show’s debut, Joe Thomas, aka Simon Cooper, will be at Silsden Town Hall in conversation, discussing the series and taking questions from the audience!
A spokesperson said:
"Hearing all about Joe’s favourite Inbetweeners moments and behind-the-scenes misadventures, as well as its impact on his own life as an actor and comedian, this promises to be an exciting evening of humour and insight from one of the nation’s best-loved young sitcom stars.
"We’ll also, of course, be touching on Joe’s other work, including Fresh Meat, White Gold and Taskmaster."
Tickets can be purchased online at silsden.live, or from the Town Hall box office weekdays between 10am and 2pm.
