NRIn celebration of Red Nose Day 2011, the four stars of the hit comedy show The Inbetweeners embarked on a naughty road trip to visit the rudest and crudest place names in the country. The cheeky chaps—actors Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, James Buckley and Blake Harrison (otherwise known as Will, Simon, Jay and Neil)—challenged themselves to visit 50 lewd locations in just 50 hours and stopped off at places such as Minge Lane, Titty Ho and Bell End. The funny foursome travelled along the risqué route in their classic yellow Fiat, and the cameras rolled the entire time to catch all the banter as they navigated their way around the country in their rude race against the clock. The special was released exclusively for purchase via iTunes and all proceeds went to charity.
