I love the boys, I love the writers. Doing The Inbetweeners was the best job in the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll we did was muck around all day long and they filmed us doing it, and at the end of the day, we might have had an episode, or a TV [show], you know, or a film or something. It was the best job in the world. But you know, as I\u2019m getting older, it\u2019s looking like it might be the only thing that I do professionally that is universally loved. There\u2019s not enough money in the world for me to spoil that.\u201d<\/p> <p>During the same interview, Buckley went on to say how, as an actor, \u201cyou can\u2019t be in a big hit sitcom, and then moan about it after\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cYou know, you can either go two ways with that. You can sit there and sort of go, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s not me, I\u2019d like to move on and do other things now\u2019 or you can sit there and go, \u2018You know, I quite liked doing it and I thought it was fun at the time, and people seem to still enjoy it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd yeah, listen, as an actor, it\u2019s difficult professionally for me to move away from that character. But you can\u2019t have it all, can you?<\/p>\n<p>Despite how it might have affected his future career and how he\u2019s not keen on reprising the iconic role, Buckley said that he \u201cstill like[s] The Inbetweeners\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI still love Jay,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tune into The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X, weekdays from 6:30am \u2013 10am and Saturdays 8am \u2013 11am.
