| Drifters | comment |
Drifters is a British sitcom that first aired on E4 on 31 October 2013. The programme stars Jessica Knappett, Lydia Rose Bewley and Lauren O'Rourke as three female friends - Meg, her cousin Bunny and their friend Laura - who live in Leeds following their graduation from university. Seen much as a female version of The Inbetweeners, no doubt aided by Knappett and Bewleys' roles as love interests for the boys in The Inbetweeners Movie.Not to be confused with Drifters, the manga of the same name. | |

Amazingly Embarrassing Parents | |
| Drifters / int_1434e55c | comment |
Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: In 'Rock & Roll': Laura is shown to be embarrassed of her own mother, who is basically a cruder, louder and stupider version of Laura and never shuts up about sex. | |

Hidden Depths: Laura displays some knowledge of tabletop RPGs when she insists the girls be allowed to join in with Gary's guild, knowing the exact way to reverse a spell cast on her by one of the other players, inadvertently killing her character. Meg even lampshades this by asking her how she knows how to do this. | |

Attention Whore: Most of the time, Bunny lies because she's bored and wants attention. She's flattered when people start commenting on her boobs when she accidentally flashed them on the internet, pretends to be pregnant because she feels upstaged by Laura's wedding, tries to start her own vlog channel and complains nobody watches it, etc. | |

Gender Flip: Meg is essentially one for Will, being the uptight voice of reason within her friend group who always publicly embarrasses herself thanks to thinking she's smarter than she actually is, having No Social Skills and lying to try and fit in with others, blurting out whatever comes to mind and being terrible at taking responsibilities for her own mistakes. | |

Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: Bunny has an audition to voice-over a furniture commercial in 'Skint'. Determined to be "Anywhere but boarding school", she practises in a pirate voice. At the audition, she affects a broad northern accent but soon discards it. The producers, increasingly desperate not to laugh, make her say her piece in Liverpule, Oirish and Beermingum voices. | |

Allegedly Dateless | |

Allegedly Dateless: Meg is considered the least successful romantically in comparison to Laura's tumultuous relationship with Gary and Bunny having sex with at least a different guy every episode. She is at least capable of getting guys to go out with her in the first place, but generally makes an absolute mess of the date due to her awkward nature or messes up the relationship on the rare occasion that she does manage to get past the first date. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Mark finally blows up at Meg in Season Three, telling her the reason he turned her down when she offered him sex is because he actually can't stand her, calling her conceited and self-obsessed and calls her out on it when she tries to bluster her way out of it, telling her to shut up and just apologise for being wrong for once. Meg finally stops pretending to be Leia's old friend and calls her out for being a dull, self-obsessed leech who pretends to be spiritual and above rules when actually she's nothing more than a Pretty Freeloader with terrible hygiene. | |

Bad Job, Worse Uniform | |

Bad Job, Worse Uniform: The girls spend much of the series working in promotions, which involves them standing in the streets in a variety of either needlessly slutty or outright embarrassing costumes, such as a mobile phone or a giant condom. | |

Same Language Dub: In universe. Despite being laughed out of two auditions, Bunny gets cast in a commercial for a furniture shop. Rather than use whichever of the various accents she's been trying out, the producers simply dub her voice over with someone else. | |

Fatal Flaw | |
| Drifters / int_aba8065b | comment |
Fatal Flaw: Meg's is always wanting what other people have - she makes Mark dump his girlfriend Fay when she gets jealous that he's moving on from her, then when Mark loses his venue and starts sliding back into being a creepy weirdo again, Meg decides she doesn't want him anymore and Fay refuses to take him back as well. Plus she gets offended when her new lesbian friend clarifies that she isn't attracted to Meg - even though Meg is straight, she gets upset when the girl prefers Bunny. She also repeatedly ignores Nice Guy Andrew who is everything she says she wants in favour of Hot and Cold who ignores Meg except when he wants sex. She also cannot go a single conversation without putting her foot in her mouth, whether that's turning a guy off on a date by yelling the C-word at top volume even when he begged her not to and mentioning she has scabies, accusing her new boss of being a coke fiend, shouting for an entire bar to hear that she hasn't had sex in twelve months, saying on live radio she once walked in on her dad going down on her mum, etc. Bunny's is she always wants to be the centre of attention and she will lie and put herself in absurd situations to get it, including eating a chilli pepper (which she's violently allergic to) so she can flirt with a hot doctor who rejected her on a dating app. Laura's hot-headedness and big mouth get her into a trouble or not. | |
