I remember the Family saying at some point they brought back the characters they felt had unfinished stories. Cassie (and by extension Sid), Cook and Effy definitely fit that bill moreso than any other characters on the show I think.
I get why they started with Effy. She's one of the most recognizable characters from the show. She was on it the longest so a lot of us are pretty attached to her. It was smart to start off with her to get people watching.....but the episodes had to be good and they were not. |

seeing yanifs flat bum was properly disgusting, looks like a midget golem thing, to be fair, he was the most interesting character and well acted, just poorly constructed by god/dna

I really liked Pure, and I'm waiting for it all to sink in before I make actual comments about it. All I know is by the end of part 1 I'm already excited for part 2, unlike Fire. __________________

Seems to relate to me... __________________

Actually I kind of understand her stalker. It often happens to artistic people, when I see someone really beautiful I can't help myself but imagine how I could draw him.
I wonder if her new career will bring back her teenage issues. And damn Skins in every episode we have a death. __________________

I'm going to reserve judgement until I see both parts of all 3 eps. I really didn't like fire, not really liking pure either (though I'm digging it more than fire).
If rise is the best - I won't think it's because they put more effort or resources into it (in fact - all 3 stories were written and directed by different teams so that all could have equal and separate attention). But what's becoming clear is that 2 hours is a really long time for 1 character/1 actor to hold and grip attention. It's not an easy feat. If Rise is the best ep, I'm going to take away that it's more Jack's doing and his ability and just sheer charisma in order to hold attention, because it's clear the teams behind the eps are falling a little short. Also, I think he has a firm grip on his character. Interested to see what happens there... because I can't say I'm loving the other eps so far. |

I didn't watch the episode, but according to some of your posts, I chose correctly.
Well, at least we know she found Sid at one point, I guess. __________________

I really wished the writers kept the bright Cassie we knew. I mean realistically people change , but still I wanted to know I could relate to her past. I think Cassie still has anorexia or body issues at least. The idea of a geek stalking \ in love with the pretty girl is getting old didn't the writer already do that with Effy .

I guess we'll find out next week. Modeling when you have body issues shouldn't be easy.
Skins | Pure (Pt. 2) | E4 - YouTube Or seeing your face on the big screen with people dancing around it for that matter. That was creepy |

I think Cassie's buildup has better buildup than Fire did. I just rewatched the episode and I liked it a bit more. It wasn't terrible. P.S. Did anyone notice the correlation between this episode and Fire? I think the building the Cassie and the realtor saw was Effy's old office. She mentioned something about the whole building needing to be leased and how it had closed. Maybe I over-thought it. But I know when they gave the first interview after the releases they said somehow all three specials were connected, kinda like all the gen's were. __________________
