Skins

Is anyone else watching this amazing show? Every episode seems to get better and better as the characters evolve. i have to admit that this program may appeal more to the 15 to 25 age range but still the acting is always top notch with brilliant music!

Currently on season 2 on E4 (and drawing to an end) but you can buy all the eps on DVD obviously for those wanting to give it a go!

Talking Re: Skins

Hi

I also think the series is fantastic, some of the actors are a bit weird but pretty realistic of an everday British teenager, and I'm only 34 so it must be good if an adult can watch it. Don't you think so?

Re: Skins

Yeah, I'm loving Skins now. Didn't really get into Series One, but I caught a few episodes [of S02] in the past couple of weeks. And I totally love it now.

Re: Skins

I attempted to watch the first series on C4. My wife hated it and C4 often broadcast more than one episode a night so I missed much of it. I bought the S1 on DVD but it's still there unwrapped as I can't get it past the wife.

All the best
Bri

Re: Skins

I never watched series 1 when it was originally on, not sure why? the only real reason i gave it a go was to try out 4OD, i liked the first ep so much that i found myself watching the whole of the series in less than a week. i finished the last ep of series one just in time for the start of series two.

Give it a go bri you may be pleasantly surprised
