The Inbetweeners reunion is branded 'toe-curling, painful, awkward and cringeworthy'.

The Inbetweeners Fwends Reunited 10th anniversary show has been slammed by devoted fans following its New Year's Day airing.

Flooding Twitter with angry responses, viewers lashed out at the Jimmy Carr-fronted show, which saw stars Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison and James Buckley join together to run through a retrospective of the cult classic. 

While some branded the programme 'toe-curling, painful, awkward and cringeworthy', others were left agitated at the concept as they believed the comedy was set to be a new episode rather than a chat show. 

The foursome, who played Will McKenzie, Simon Cooper, Neil Sutherland and Jay Cartwright respectively, clubbed together to chat to the funnyman before going for a spin in the now-iconic yellow Fiat Cinquecento Hawaii car.

There was much fanfare over the reunion, however it seems the problems arose for fans due to confusion over the premise of the programme. 

Twitter users penned: 'Lukewarm thoughts on the Inbetweeners reunion, nice throwback & really enjoyed the section in the car...

'However Jimmy Carr was an awful host & talked over everyone. The 4 of them looked like they didn’t want to be there some of the time, and some of it was super cringe... #FwendsReunited was painfully bad. Greg Davies should’ve hosted it..
