Welcome To ITCrowdOnline.Com
I wanted to give you somewhere where all The IT Crowd fans could gather and not only see every episode right here but delve deeper into the programme, characters and people behind the show. I hope you like it and help it to grow by leaving your comments and stories as you look around. If your having problems, try turning it off and on again!!
Roy is well known for his huge collection of geeky tee shirts and they have become quite a must for todays geek. Take a look inside to find out where you can purchase each of the shirts he wears for each episode as a true fan has tracked them down by searching the web.
So you know the programmes and think you know the characters pretty well. Now you can get into the minds of the real people behind The IT Crowd. Here you'll find interviews with the likes of Katherine Parkinson who plays Jen, and the writer himself Graham Linehan who's happy to tell us what we all want to know.
So What Is The I.T. Crowd?
The IT Crowd centers around the lives of an IT support
staff working away in the forgotten dingy basement of a large company,
Reynholm Industries. Roy (the slob) and Moss (the geek) lurk in the
basement fielding support calls in the tradition of IT department the
world over... "the beatings are bi-weekly". Jen's been recruited by the
big boss Denholm, to manage the department... but her lack of knowledge
of anything computer-ey may hinder her career development path... Is it
in, on, out or it? There's a lot going on behind the scenes of the
software development community!
Roy
The smiling face of the I.T. Department, Roy's
spiky personality ensures he'll always be kept away from normal people
as long as possible.
He's king of the basement,
indulging his love of comic books, fast food, computer games and random
arguments with his best friend, Moss.
Moss
Moss lives with his mum, who also dresses him, styles his hair and buys his clothes.
He's
highly intelligent, scared of spiders and has the social skills of a
serial killer. The closest he's got to a woman is Lara Croft, and he
struggles to communicate with anything that doesn't have a keyboard.
Jen
Jen knows nothing about IT, she only got the
job because she said she had extensive experience of computers like
using mices, clicking, double-clicking, and that thing that goes on the
floor... the er hard-drive?
As well as being
their line manager, Jen is Roy and Moss' agony aunt, relationship coach
and guru about life.
Douglas
Douglas Reynholm was the proverbial wild child,
the prodigal son, the lost sheep, or even 'the son that fled from a
hefty lawsuit to go off womanising all over the world, wasting his
father's money fuelling his excessive need for copious amounts of sex'.
This became Roys favourite drink after seeing it advertised on Friendface in Series 3 Episode 5. Now Facebook has a group devoted to this fictional drink!
Geek Memorabilia Wanted
Did you know that for the Third series writer Graham Linehan asked the public for their help. They were after some proper props to dress the set. "I'm talking about posters,
comics, fanzines, T-shirts... anything you've seen in the last few
months that you think is pretty cool or captures the spirit of the show
or a particular character." So most of what you saw in the series was largely thanks to the fans of the show.
Have America Pulled The Plug?
"News reached me a while back that there may not be a US
version of The IT Crowd. Apparently, there’s been a change of
management at NBC and they’ve gone off the idea. I found this out on
the Internet, which is how I find out all my information on the US IT
Crowd", said Graham Linehan.
The Guys Very First Scene
I just had to add this to the home page. Itmakes me laugh everytime. Starting with the now famous phrase,"Have you tried turning it off and on again", Roy is an instant hit to the show. Follow that with Ross and his geek exterior and tech talk almost guarantee this show is going to be a hit within the first five minutes of being on air.
Be Part Of A Live Audience Of The IT Crowd
How would you like to be in the live audience when season 4 is filmed? I know I would and have already put my request in for tickets when they become available. The IT Crowd is shot in London so if your there or there abouts and fancy it, go to SRO Audiences and get put on their mailing list to be kept up to date with what is happening. I have no information on how long we have to wait for more shows but as soon as I know I'll let you know.
Just to add. This is a free website but I do have server costs to cover to keep it going. I would really appreciate any donations anyone can spare to help the site continue and improve. As I say, all the episodes are shown on this site for free and I'm not asking you to pay for them but if you can spare a little then please donate by clicking the donate button at the top left hand side of this page.
