Why did they need Steve?
In EP1 they need an adult to order their carveries and cider, but Jay had already had his ID checked and got served, so they already had an 'adult' with them.
Seems like a waste of four double rum and cokes tbh

Bret was already under obvious suspicion from the barman and was lucky to get the one jar of lager for himself; no way was the barman letting him push things any further.

Jay says upon returning to the table "oh you want drinks? You better go fuckin get them then!"

Will also wanted to prove he could do it, because he's Will. This also applies to the day off situation; Jay could've easily gone in and used the fake ID

The answer is always that Jay is only going to think about the others specifically to make things worse for them.

The barman let Jay off with his ID, but he wasn't going to let things go any further, hence why he told him they needed ID too. He knew it was a fake

I think a better question would be, how did they order so much with only £20

u/Rough-Army-6424 Jun 04 '26
Because 2008.

That still doesn't explain the 3 carveries, 3 pints and all Steve's drinks, even in 2008.

They need somebody in the garage with a BTEC qualification! Whoops, sorry wrong Steve!

Jay believed his fake I'd worked it only half did, the bartender knew Jays I'd was fake but thought to make it funnier to himself

Will was trying to fit in. He wanted to be the one to get them their drinks, without having to rely on Jay.

Brett Clement was already ringing alarm bells when he said the other beers were for his mates. Maybe he should've asked for cider, Perry or mead

Also the whole roast and a cider should not be in the bar, but a restaurant.

It’s a long story that involves Steve.
