E4 has ordered two new comedy dramas, both with a sci-fi twist.
The Inbetweeners actor Blake Harrison will play lead character Danny in parallel universe series Tripped.
The four-part series will follow Danny and stoner friend Milo (George Webster) as they trip through alternate worlds, meeting different versions of themselves.

Mathieson remains as co-creator and co-writer of episode one, while The Missing writing duo Harry and Jack Williams take over scripting duties for the remainder of the series.
Blake Harrison said: "I'm really excited to be working on Tripped. It's always frustrating when good actors make me look bad but on this show I get to have a lot of scenes with myself so I should look alright!

Rose is new to Brighton. She is leaving something relatively unpleasant (but not specifically explained) behind her and is seeking to create a new life for herself and although naturally shy, she manages to strike up conversations and burgeoning friendships with a pleasant mix of people – homeless Joe, barman Harry, half-naked housemate Kyle and underpants wearing launderette user Carlos. Over the course of a few days she chats with them, plays music to them and mingles at parties, whilst trying to feel at home in a lovely but unfamiliar city.
