So, it's like Girls, just with added vomiting and possibly less awkward sex scenes. And it's set in Leeds.
Drifters will star three of the ladies from The Inbetweeners movie, those being Lydia Rose Bewley, Jessica Knappett (Jane and Lisa), and Lauren O'Rourke (Neil's girlfriend), and is due to air on Channel 4. According to Sky News, Bob Mortimer will play one of their fathers.
Executive producer on the show, Inbetweener's co-creator Iain Morris, said: "We're lucky and delighted to be involved with Jess's new sitcom. We knew from our time working with her whilst shooting The Inbetweeners Movie that she was hysterically funny, not least because she created the production's unofficial drinking den, Bar Knappett, in her hotel room." Insightful.
One can only hope that Drifters is more Inbetweeners and less like Lena Dunham's Girls, which I'm fast becoming disillusioned with. The dialogue is snappy and smart, but in terms of sexual subservience, it's starting to make Sex and The City (series 1 to 4, best to pretend nothing existed past that) resemble the HBO version of The Female Eunuch.
