The Last and Final Series of SKINS



So it is here Monday 1st July on E4

Which if you ask me should have been here 2 series ago it’s the last series of the popular teen drama SKINS.

Instead of following a new group of friends making their way through college we are re-introduced to 3 of our old favourite’s characters from the past and how they are now making their way through adult life. (we also meet other old characters who make smaller appearances)

The series is 6 episodes long with which is split in 2 episodes per story
Skins Fire - Effys story
 
Skins Rise - Cooks story

Skins Pure - Cassie's story  
 
Since being connected with E4 through being and E4er I have had the honour of being sent sneak peeks of shows before they have been sent to air and with the final series of E4 favourite it is no different I have been sent the first episode which I have watched before it the rest of the country. This Entry is to explain what I thought of it and why I think you should tune in on Monday night

The first two episodes revolve around Effy’s story and what she is now doing and without giving away the details the first episode was great but nothing like I was expecting. Since I have seen every series of skins and am of the firm belief that each series was worse than the last. Although this first episode was not that bad in fact it was really good the episode has been stripped back to its roots with all elements that made skins the great show it was in the first place and at the same time adding new and more grown up elements this mixture of new and old is what make the first episode of the final series un-expectantly brilliant and I hope the rest of the series doesn’t disappoint.
