Skins

[onenameshelley]

Is anyone else looking forward to this? Its going to be on E4 (then probably on Channel 4) from 25th January, it written by the same people who do shameless. although E4 are plugging it as an "edgy"drama, and to view any previews you have to be over 18 so it could be great or just shite . Its got that kid who used to be the "boy" in About a Boy and my he has grown.

I suspect i am going to be the only person excited by this but there you go

Apols for the link i am crap with those thingys

 

[Thimble Queen]

I'm quite looking forward to this too

ooh good, the only thing is it might depress me, all those young beautiful types off their tits on drugs etc. i might get all old and crotchity about it

I'm quite looking forward to this too

ooh so excited double post

 

[treefrog]

What's it about? The teaser trailers aren't much help and the kids remind me of my students

 

[zoooo]

It looks very much like a Dazed & Confused magazine fashion shoot to me.

 

[Sweaty Betty]

Its about me when i was 19, by the looks of it!!!!!!

 

[zoooo]

Fit, isn't he!

 

[Tank Girl]

I'm looking forward to it

oh, shells, I've been meaning to ask you... (thread derail...) what happened with claire in hollyoaks? we missed a few, and she was gone!

 

[SubZeroCat]

I'm curious - it will either be good shite or shite shite I reckon.

 

[Moggy]

From the name of the thread i was hoping it was gonna be a new series about skinheads

 

[per]

The trailer I've seen (with The Gossip tune) looks really good.....but it could be really cliched

 

[Madusa]

I'm looking forward to it

(soz, thread derail cont.)

Yeah, what happened there? Max is still alive but what happened to claire...the last i saw she packed Maxed and Tom in her car and was driving away...this was a bit after xmas, mind.

Anyway...
So this Skin's programme...trailer looks like a Brit made-for-tv Larry Clarke creation. Im a tad dubious.

I've been wondering when I'll stop wanting to watch tv programmes that are so very not aimed at my age

I can't see it happening anytime soon.

I am the same Tanky, I put it down to my lost youth, too busy feeling shite!

 

[la ressistance]

i worked on this.




nothing more to add to that.

[Orang Utan]

Another programme that I'd feel a bit wrong for looking at

She pretended that Tom fell in the water so that Max would go and try to rescue him, meanwhile tom is locked in the car, meanwhile elsewhere OB is driving to the rescue after trashing the flat and finding out where they are. Max realises it was all a trick and starts to drown claire, mocks him, ob saves him. The police arrest her but dont have enough evidence so they let her go again, she does a runner with the money as far as i can tell and thats that.

As for watching things are not aimed at me, well fuck it is my current idea.

 

[Tank Girl]

thank you sweetheart, I knew you'd be able to get me up to date

and yeah, fuck it

 

[camouflage]

Teen-Hollyoaks, some light drug-use.

 

[futha]

i like the 'party' ad they are running. im looking forward to it too

 

[Maggot]

It's about to start on E4.

Can't believe how much it's been hyped.

 

[Firky]

It is a bit shit really isn't it? Its like Hollyoaks with speed.

 

[Firky]

this is fucking terrible

i stayed in to watch this shite

 

[Idaho]

It's pretty much total bollocks, but not entirely charmless.

 

[trashpony]

this is fucking terrible

i stayed in to watch this shite

[brixtonvilla]
