I'm okay. How are you? I miss you. You should post here more.

Same, but this means we'll get a bunch of CE.

Not sure it's relevant but Afterellen (who is best buds with E4 and got to watch the entire S4 in advance) have now confimed with the E4 Production Team that the movie is 100% a go.

So there you go, yet another confirmation.

They were enigmatic, charismatic, intriguing and the catalyst for everything that happens in the series.

4. Did you cry for a certain scene? If YES, do you remember what it is? If NO, what is the most impressive scene or quote for you?
There were loads of scenes from Generation 1 that moved me to tears. They were: (1) Sid's father died. (2) Sid was on the beach, turned to Michelle and told her he was soo lonely. (3) Chris was rushed to the hospital. (4) Jal told his brothers about her being pregnant and they hugged. (4) Chris' death (5) Cassie all alone in New York, ate an apple and "Hometown Glory" plays. (6) Jal's speech during Chris' funeral. (7) Sid and Tony saying their goodbyes at the airport. (8) Pretty much the entire S2 finale. As for Generation 2, they were only quite a few but: (1) Effy's suicide attempt. (2) Effy telling Freddie "I love you" over and over again in the hospital (because I knew what was gonna happen next). (3) Effy calling out Freddie's name when she hears his voice in her head. (4) Effy reading what was written in Freddie's diary. (5) Karen looking for her brother in Naomi's house.

B. Most of the narrations are similar to the real teenage life.

Chris. When he found out that his mum had abandoned him and he hid in that closet. Yeah, I have abandonment issues.

7. What makes you fancy Skins so much? (or What makes you a fan of it?)
Because it changed my life. It was the stillpoint of my downward spiraling world at the time when I first watched it.

1.You are:
C. At work

2.Your favourite character in Skins(S01&S02) is: Cassie and Sid and Effy and Freddie for all generations

3.What makes you like him or her? (or What you like the most inside this character?) I like Sid and Freddie for some of the same reasons. They're more normal and all this craziness tends to be going on around them and they try to react to it all. I love Cassie and Effy because they're so complicated. You just never know how they're gonna react to something or do next.

4.Did you cry for a certain scene? Yes
If YES, do you remember what it is? When Freddie died
If NO, what is the most impressive scene or quote for you?

5.To what extent, do you think the teenage life presented in Skins can find itself in the real life?
B. Some of the situations are more out there of course since its TV but MOST are based in something real that I can understand.

6.Have you ever found a certain scene similar to your own experience? (or Have you ever feel a certain scene finds an echo in your heart? ) Freddie's struggle with mental illness and wanting to believe he could help Effy and make things right.

7.What makes you fancy Skins so much? (or What makes you a fan of it? )
Its very different from american TV. It has a very distinct attitude and style to the writing and cinematography and music.

1.You are:
B. University student & C. At work

2.Your favourite character in Skins(S01&S02) is:
G1: Cassie, Effy, Sid, Chris // G2: Cook, Katie

3.What makes you like him or her? (or What you like the most inside this character?)
I don't know, there's so much I could say about them. I loved Cassie's and Effy's uniqueness, Sid's & Chris's comedy, and Cook's & Katie's depth.

4.Did you cry for a certain scene?
If YES, do you remember what it is? The scene is in Sid's S2 episode when he and Tony are at the club and he breaks down and tells him his father has died. The most impressive scene for me however is in Effy's S1 episode when she overdosed.

5.To what extent, do you think the teenage life presented in Skins can find itself in the real life?
A. It is totally the reflection of the real teenage life.
B. Most of the narrations are similar to the real teenage life. - Gen 1
C. Only several scenes come from the real teenage life nowadays.
D. It is completely a fictional world. - Gen 2

6.Have you ever found a certain scene similar to your own experience? (or Have you ever feel a certain scene finds an echo in your heart? )
The feel of Gen 1, the closeness of the group, is was the "echo in my heart". It's what kept me watching. These kids were like a family and I loved that and could relate to it. It's not so much one scene in particular, as it is a small reflection of myself in different characters.

7.What makes you fancy Skins so much? (or What makes you a fan of it? )
The cinematography, the music, the characters, the writing, everything really. The one thing I love most about it is that it's a teen drama that doesn't preach to you what right or wrong should be. It is what it is.

^ Your answer to number 6 is lovely! I feel the same way as well. You're making me miss Gen 1 again.

Opening auditions were held for Gen 3 yesterday. I can't believe the new gen is already being lined up. Time goes so quickly.

Check it out: http://www.jackbristol.com/newscentr...n-bristol-4117

lisztomania

i wonder how these auditions go. do they already have a characters in mind or do they just form ones from those they pick?

roswellcharmed_2000

No the actors try out for certain parts I think that they have some script pages to read from.

lisztomania

Tugi

For gen 2 they had a video showing the auditions. And yeah, they already have some script pages.

2.Your favourite character in Skins(S01&S02) is:

Anwar /Cassie /Chris / Sid

3.What makes you like him or her? (or What you like the most inside this character?)

I liked each of them for something different. Anwar mainly because he was a fun and adorable character. As for Chris/Cassie/Sid, I could relate to them the most. They were unique characters, Cassie was lost, had to find her way, she was living in her own world. Chris was the funnies character, I loved his humour, I loved that he just lived his life even though he had so many issues, his life wasn't perfect but he made the most of it. Sid was just adorably lost.

4.Did you cry for a certain scene?
If YES, do you remember what it is?

Chris dying and his funeral. Also Tony/Sid in the club, when Sid told him that his father died.

5.To what extent, do you think the teenage life presented in Skins can find itself in the real life?

A. It is totally the reflection of the real teenage life.
B. Most of the narrations are similar to the real teenage life. - generation 1
C. Only several scenes come from the real teenage life nowadays.
D. It is completely a fictional world.

6.Have you ever found a certain scene similar to your own experience? (or Have you ever feel a certain scene finds an echo in your heart? )

I could relate to bits and pieces of every character in the 1st generation. And I definitely could relate to some of the family issues, since my family isn't perfect to put it delicately.

7.What makes you fancy Skins so much? (or What makes you a fan of it? )

The friendships, the closeness of the group. The characters, the music, cinematography.
