The cast of 'The Inbetweeners' will form a book group to stay in touch after confirming there will be no third film.
The four actors from 'The Inbetweeners' movies and TV series - Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, James Buckley and Blake Harrison - have officially finished working on the franchise that originally started as comedy series on E4 in 2008.
Joe (who played Simon Cooper) explained that the cast will have to take unusual measures to keep in touch now that they have finished working together.
The 31-year-old actor joked: "None of us are on Facebook. We can start a book group instead - read a Jane Austen novel."
And despite pleas for a third instalment, the four boys are adamant that they are done with the teenage themed comedy.
Simon, 30, (Will McKenzie) told The Sun newspaper: "There's no third film. This is genuinely our last interview ever. Ever, ever, ever."
As Joe quipped: "We should take a moment - it's like the fall of the Berlin Wall."
Father-of-two, James, 27, admitted he felt he was too old to play foul-mouthed Jay Cartwright any more.
He said: "Physically, unfortunately, we're ageing. The body clock is ticking. It has to end at some point."
While Blake - who played Neil Sutherland - added he was just please that the Australian set sequel had been well received.
The 29-year-old actor said: "The film did really well. It was reviewed really well and we were very happy about that. It was a surprise to us. What a great way to go out."

British professional boxer Tony Bellew is to appear with Sylvester Stallone in the new 'Rocky' spin-off movie 'Creed'.
The cruiserweight fighter has been cast as Pretty Boy Porter in the film, which will star Michael B. Jordan star as the grandson of Rocky's most famous opponent and friend Apollo Creed - played by Carl Weathers in previous films in the franchise - who Rocky decides to train.
Bellew admits he stalled on signing his contract for the film - which will be directed by Ryan Coogler - because he wanted to focus on his fight with his bitter rival Nathan Cleverly, whom he defeated on points in their rematch on Saturday night (22.11.14).
The 31-year-old fighter said: "I've got an assignment next in Hollywood. I've got business in Hollywood in December. I'm close to agreeing to it and I've been sought after for quite some time. I'm off to America early in December, I've got a few things to do over there and life is going to change. It came about because of a film of me driving around the area I grew up in as a kid. This guy spotted it and it went from there. He came to see me, his name is Ryan Coogler, he's an amazing movie producer. An amazing guy."
However, when he was first contacted about the part, Bellew admits he thought the offer was a prank call and he put the phone down twice on the person contacting him before taking the call seriously.
Recalling how he was in a foul mood because his favourite English soccer team Everton had lost, he said: "They saw a film of me driving round where I come from in Liverpool and it came from there. Everton had just lost 6-3 to Chelsea and a guy phoned me up and said Sylvester Stallone wants to speak to you. I said, 'F**k off,' and when he rang a second time 10 minutes later, I told him I would trace the call, find him and beat the s**t out of him.
"Then he rang a third time and told me to check out the director on the web and we agreed to meet at a hotel. Even then I thought it was a wind-up and expected someone to jump out and say, 'Ha, fooled you!'"
Former super-middleweight champion Andre Ward has also been cast in the movie and filming will start in January in Philadelphia - the hometown of Rocky which has featured in the previous six films - and Las Vegas.
Speaking about the project previously, Stallone, 68, said: "It's very interesting because people would think it would be 'Rocky VII' ... it's not, I have a supporting role ... I think it will be a great movie."

J.K. Rowling has written a "wonderful script" for the Harry Potter spin-off 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'.
The 49-year-old author's latest offering - which is set in New York, 70 years before Harry and his wizard friends arrive at Hogwarts school - is said to be in its "early stages", with filming set to begin next year.
The plot follows explorer Newt Scamander as he travels the world before penning the titular textbook 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' - which Harry later studies during his time at the wizarding school.
The franchise's producer David Heyman has once again teamed up with director David Yates, who helmed the final four Potter movies in the series, and confessed he is "really excited" about the project.
Speaking at the London premiere of his latest movie 'Paddington' yesterday (23.11.14), he said: "Jo [Rowling] has written a wonderful script.
"It's early stages. David Yates is directing and we start filming next year. I'm just really excited about it."
Heyman previously described working with Rowling on the spin-off - which is expected to be made into "at least" a trilogy - as a "joy".
He said: "She is so smart, and her turn of phrase, the precision of the language she uses, is a joy to behold."
'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' is set to hit cinemas in November 2016.

Author Michael Bond braced himself for the worst with 'Paddington'.
The 88-year-old has admitted he was anxious about seeing his furry friend brought to life on the big screen as he feared the film may be awful.
He explained: "Before, there was a certain amount of trepidation. I was worrying that I'd be lying awake thinking: 'I've let Paddington down.'
"Letting other people take control of your character was like letting your child go off in somebody else's car. You hope for the best, but brace yourself for the worst."
The acclaimed author penned the first novel about the character in 1958 and has since released 25 further stories, but the 2014 StudioCanal adaptation is the first time the iconic character has appeared in a feature-length film.
Thankfully, the movie - which features Nicole Kidman, Peter Capaldi and Ben Whishaw as the voice of Paddington - has proved to be a hit with the writer.
He gushed: "From the word go, I was totally hooked on it. It's one of those films where you come away thinking about it. There's so much in it that's magical. I'd give it full marks."
Despite enjoying the movie in the end, Michael admits he got angry at producers during the making of the film for pretending there was an immigration office at Paddington station where the bear is found by Mr and Mrs Brown, played by Hugh Bonneville and Sally Hawkins.
Talking to The Sunday Telegraph, he added: "Their first reaction is to take him off to the local immigration people, but I said: 'No way! There's no immigration at Paddington station.' I hate writing about things that don't exist."

Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum "got in trouble" for losing too much weight filming 'Jupiter Ascending'.
The 31-year-old actress - who has two-month-old daughter Wyatt with fiancé Ashton Kutcher - admits the futuristic action adventure was the most physically demanding project she has ever undertaken and felt like a "massive boot camp".
She said: "The whole film was a massive boot camp. I have no body fat in this movie for the first time in my life.
"For five days a week, you train every single day, for six months. Just work out all day long for six months and yu too will have no body fat.
"We both got in trouble for losing too much weight. It was really bad."
Mila doesn't think she is very much like her character Jupiter because she has always believed in herself and felt supported.
She told SFX magazine: "Even at my lowest when I was trying to figure my life out or going through puberty I never doubted myself like Jupiter did.
"I always had a very good backbone, being my family. Which was always an incredible support system.
"So anytime I questioned anything it was never as dire as Jupiter. I think Jupiter feels like she's alone. I've always been very lucky where I never felt alone."

"It was nice to be a part of it and it opened a lot of doors. I mean, definitely more roles. People have been calling a lot."
Rita also teased that fans will enjoy the movie, which stars Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in the lead roles.

Evangeline Lilly found it "liberating" playing a new character in 'The Hobbit' movies.
The former 'Lost' actress joined the cast as Tauriel in second movie 'The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug' and though she was concerned people would instinctively dislike her because she didn't appear in J.R.R. Tolkein's novel, she was relieved not to have to worry about living up to expectations.
She explained: "It was totally liberating that Tauriel was a new character.
"I was, of course, aware that I would be under deeper scrutiny because people would be wanting to hate her, but once the decision was made to do it, then it was nothing but a blessing.
"At that point it was all about, 'Let's create the best character possible so that people have to fall in love with her' instead of, 'How do I live up to 50 years of people envisioning this character?'"
Movie boss Sir Peter Jackson was keen to introduce Tauriel because he wanted a "great kick-ass chick" in the thick of the action.
He told SFX magazine: "It was a very cold-blooded decision to cast a female character because there's a lot of strength in women within the Elvish rank.
"We just wanted to have a really great kick-ass chick, basically."

Julie Walters' dream role is to play James Bond villain.
The 64-year-old actress would love to play an over-the-top baddie in the famous spy series, after being inspired by the actress Lotte Lenya, who played the main antaognist in the 1963 film 'From Russia with Love'.
She said: "I'd adore to do a Bond villain. Really ham it up and give an outrageous performance. Maybe someone like Rosa Klebb with the knife in her shoe."
The 'Harry Potter' star is particularly keen to take on the role while Daniel Craig is still in the role of Bond.
She added: "And I'd get to work with the wonderful Daniel Craig. They haven't written the script yet so I've still got time. I want the world to know that this is my dream role and I'll keep praying it happens."
However, the veteran actress admitted that she had considered retiring from acting all together after getting caught up in the aging process.
Julie told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "I had reached 60 and it felt likes, 'Ughhh!' All this white hair appeared. I thought, 'I want to stop and think.' I didn't do anything for a year or so and thought, 'I don't need to work anymore.' Then I realised it's not that I just want to work. I like the challenge and want to keep on being challenged.
"I'm not bothered about my face being lined and I've never had surgery or anything."
