Skins season 7 synopsis
Skins is a British teen drama that follows the lives of a group of teenagers in Bristol, South West England, through the two years of sixth form. Its controversial storylines have explored issues such as dysfunctional families, mental illness (such as eating disorders), adolescent sexuality, substance abuse, death and bullying. The show was created by dad-and-son television writers Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain for Company Pictures, and premiered on E4 upon 25 January 2007. The show went upon to be a necessary success as well as a ratings winner within its target demographic. Over its initial six-year run, Skins proved to be atypical of ongoing drama series in that it replaced its primary cast all two years. Plans for a film spin-off were first discussed in 2009, but ultimately did not come to fruition. Instead, a specially-commissioned seventh and final series of the show was broadcast in 2013, featuring some of the cast from its 200710 run.[ The show's name comes from the rolling papers known as "skins".Other ventures to expand the brand have included a short-lived North American remake, which aired upon MTV in 2011 but was cancelled after one season after advertisers abandoned the series in response to low ratings and the significant controversy which arose over its depiction of teen sexuality.
I took the clips of the second and final part of Skins Rise! The end of the seventh season and the series is just a few days! On Monday August 5 we told goodbye for ever in the series, and this more than confirmed, so undoubtedly Monday will be a bit emotional for true fans of the series ... Remember that you have only until Saturday 3 to participate in the "Skins Goodbye Project", if they are embarrassed or unable to participate can join us to make # ThankYouSkins is World Twitter Trend (moreover sharing the video of the project was published after the end of Skins Rise). Thank you very much!
Skins season 7 trailer
The seventh series, titled Skins Redux, aired on 1 July 2013. It saw the return of former Skins stars Hannah Murray as Cassie, Jack O'Connell as Cook and Kaya Scodelario as Effy in three individual stories. Lily Loveless as Naomi and Kathryn Prescott as Emily also starred in guest roles. The three stories have their own titles: Skins Fire (Effy), Skins Pure (Cassie) and Skins Rise (Cook). The six-part series began filming on the 22 October 2012 and concluded at the end of January 2013.Skins Fire depicts Effy as a 21-year-old hedge fund receptionist. She lives with Naomi, who is drifting through life with vague ambitions of being a stand-up comedian. Effy is much more serious and driven than in the past, and impresses her bosses enough to win a shot at being a stock trader. In her attempts to succeed in her career, she becomes embroiled in an insider trading scandal, as well as romantically involved with her boss (Kayvan Novak). In order to spare her lovelorn pal Dom (Craig Roberts) from jail time for his part in the crime, she makes a full confession to the Financial Services Authority of hers and Jake's activities. Meanwhile, Naomi reveals she is struggling with cancer, and pleas with Effy to not say Emily, who is in New York on an internship. Dom and Effy retain Naomi until it is certain her condition is fatal; Emily returns to London, hurt and betrayed, and comforts Naomi while Effy is prosecuted.
Skins Pure catches up with Cassie at 23, living a solitary existence in London and waitressing after breaking up with an ex-boyfriend in America. The new Cassie no longer does drugs, and has recovered from her eating disorder. After discovering someone has been secretly taking and uploading artful photos of her to the Internet, she tracks down her stalker, who is revealed to be the cook at her cafe, Jakob (Olly Alexander). After realising Jakob's attention gives her confidence, she allows him to continue photographing her on her terms, in an explicitly non-sexual friendship. While trying to retain her depressed dad and tiny brother after the death of her mother, her friendship with Jakob slowly comes apart as his jealousy grows irrational, particularly when Cassie models for a professional shoot. Ultimately, Cassie chooses to depart behind her friendship with Jakob and another man who had been pursuing her romantically (Daniel Ben Zenou) to focus upon raising her little brother while her father recuperates in Italy.
Skins Rise is set in Manchester, and follows Cook as a drug dealer in his early 20s. The episodes feature a voiceover of Cook, explaining his thoughts and alluding towards a murder he may have committed, but never outright stating it. Eventually it is very heavily implied that Cook did in fact execute John Foster, and has been upon the run ever since. He has a semi-serious relationship with a girl named Emma, but is mesmerized by Charlie, the girlfriend of local druglord Louis after he is asked to watch over her for a few days as she runs errands. Cook witness Charlie's indiscretion with a man named Jason after a night at a club, and is beaten to save his mouth shut. Louis however, is aware of the incident and has his henchman Rob murder Jason brutally in front of both Cook and Charlie, making it definite that he does not deal with disloyalty. After that, Cook decides to go upon the run again, and Emma is along for the ride. While escaping from the city, Charlie calls Cook and begs him to take her with them. The three stop up at Emma's family's old country home, in a remote part of the country. Not long after though, Louis arrives, explaining that he tracked the car they used. Charlie refuses to go with him, and the three decide to depart the home. As they are walking, they locate Emma's parent's car, and Cook soon witnesses many people he cared about die. At the stop of the episode, he decides he is done running, and faces Louis. Beating him, he repeats his well-known line "I'm Cook. You thought you could kill me? I'm fucking Cook." He helps Charlie profit away after he has alerted the police, and the series ends with Cook distinguishing life and death, and how he feels about each.
Skins: Fire
For "Skins: Fire Part 1", reception was generally definite in the UK.
The Telegraph UK gave "Fire: Part 1" 4/5 stars, stating: "The fact that all the plot progression was extremely predictable, and that only the characters of Effy and her flatmate Naomi were more than, er, skin-deep, would surely have sunk most drama. But happily it did not. Skins was a triumph of slick over substance. The floors echoed pleasingly to the sound of costly footwear; the characters were deservedly pasty and horrible."[28]
DigitialSpy UK also gave "Fire: Part 1" 4/5 stars, stating "Skins Fire may not feel much like the Skins we knew, but Jess Brittain's script, with its winning combination of relationship drama and cutting humor, remains a compelling piece of drama in its own right. Let's just hope that next week's Fire burns bright, rather than wallowing in darkness."
Reception of "Skins: Fire Part 1" in North America was similarly sure.
DenofGeek gave "Fire: Part 1" a generally certain review, stating: "The original show broke a lot of rules when it ditched its main cast after two series, and now its breaking them again by throwing its otherwise eternally young characters into an adult world. This world is harsher and more realistic, and the fun that can be had there is of a different breed to the house parties and bed hopping of old...[But] those hoping for Freddie, Cook or Tony references in this Effy-centric adventure will come away disappointed, and my guess is that fans hoping for a reunion between characters not already teased are going to come away disappointed. I might be wrong, but this is an only-slightly unsatisfactory morsel in an otherwise brave, entertaining and grown-up drama. My feeling is that it would stand alone without the Skins tag, but will finish off the show in fittingly bright and daring fashion."
On the other hand, reception for "Skins Fire: Part 2" was much more mixed in the UK, with much of the criticism stemming from the "dark" endings for both Effy's and the Naomily storylines.
DigitialSpy UK gave "Skins: Fire Part 2" 3/5 stars, stating "Last week, I questioned the wisdom of imposing a tragic twist on the 'Naomily' romance and, having now seen how the plot played out, I stand by my original criticism. Yes, these dramatic scenes milk the astonishing cast for all their worth - but that's not the point. Sometimes, a glad ending isn't cheap or trite - sometimes, it's earned. To steal that away from Emily and Naomi here just feels mean-spirited. Effy's final fate also feels cruel. She's always projected uber-confidence but, beneath the bravado, has remained desperate for reassurance and validation from the men in her life - from Tony onwards. [...] All the grief and tragedy [throughout the episode] soon becomes overwhelming. The second part of Skins Fire is very great - the acting, script and direction are all summit-notch - but, at times, the tone is pitch-black. When the laughs come, they're yet pin-bright but they're few and far between. It's telling that I always preferred those first series of Skins - the fun, the hedonism - to their more 'adult' follow-ups. This is the show at its most bleak and, for my taste at least, it leans too far to the dark side."
Similarly, reception for "Skins Fire: Part 2" was mixed in North America.
DenofGreek gave "Skins Fire: Part 2" a mixed review, stating "...Skins has never been shy about killing off beloved characters (see Chris, Freddie and Grace), but its always seemed to mean something before. Lost innocence for the remaining group of friends was a enormous theme of the original show, but what purpose does Naomis death serve to Skins Fire? Is it just to show Effy that lifes too short? Or that friends are more important than work? For the audience, we learnt that no matter what you do, tragedy is going to tear through your life. [...] My biggest problem with both episodes was the Naomi seemed so interchangeable almost unrecognisable from the girl we got to know of two series. Would the effect on Effy have been any different had the second character been Pandora or Katie? The you win again outburst in part one would have made more sense, and we wouldnt have had to invent a friendship between Effy and Naomi thats obviously supposed to have developed since series four. It didnt make the heartbreak any less shattering, however [...] Skins Fire was pretty and brave much like the series it continued, but in terms of character development and a satisfying conclusion for definite relationships, it left a lot to be desired. Tragedy can be poignant and moving, but I cant help but feel that it wasnt the place of Skins Fire to replace our glad endings with something this dire. Instead of partying at Freddies home, glad and united at last, Effy is in prison, Emily is bereft and Naomi is in the grave. Lets hope Skins Rise and Skins Pure are a bit more uplifting.
Skins: Pure
Reception for "Skins Pure: Part 1" was fairly positive in the UK.
DigitalSpyUK gave the episode 3/5 stars, stating "Anyone yet reeling from the pitch-black Skins Fire and hoping to find a tiny light relief in Skins Pure can guess again. As with its predecessor, there's tiny of the debauchery here that once made E4's teen drama so notorious - in its place is the grim notion that once your youthful exuberance has dried up, there's tiny waiting for you in the 'real world' but disappointment [...] It's perhaps not surprising that Skins Pure shares the similar strengths and weaknesses as Fire - with uniformly solid acting, writing and direction, it's definitely worth buckling down and persevering with. But lacking as it does a sense of fun, some may find it too heavy-going to handle. So far, this series of Skins has been easy to admire, to really enjoy. On that basis, I'm hoping Cassie gets a glad ending and a great root next week - us Skins fans could use it."
Reception for "Skins Pure: Part 1" in North America was a bit more certain.
DenofGeek gave the episode a generally certain evaluation, stating "Skins Pure is much more and much less like a traditional episode of Skins than Fire simply because, while its still set away from Bristol and with no known supporting characters, you can imagine it fitting back into the original series quite easily. This is a different friendly of young adulthood than the one encountered by girls like Effy Stonem, and that doesnt make it any less real or worth exploring. Ill be honest and admit that my expectations for this farewell series have been lowered by the second half of Skins Fire, but this episode did set up some interesting things to explore next week. Its surreal and ridiculous, and a world-weary Cassie is hard to take at first, but its strikingly different from what the show has done before. Crucially, it stays true to the character, and hopefully well see her profit her glad ending at last."
Reception for "Skins Pure: Part 2" was generally certain.
DenofGeek gave the episode a generally definite review, stating "Out of all the characters over three generations of Skins, Cassie holds a special place in most fans hearts. That makes the fact that Skins Pure, as a complete 2-hour adventure, leaves you feeling so great amazing in a number of ways. Its loyal to the character without being terrified to adapt her to an adult world, for one, and the happy ending here feels earned, rather than tacked on for the fans. Always reliant on others for a sense of belonging, now Cassie has stepped in and created her own family, taking in her tiny brother while her father gets away for a while. Its not the way I expected things to go, but that last everys fine is fabulous."
On the other hand, Whatculture.com gave the episode 2/5 stars, concluding that "But the really disappointing [thing] isnt that Pure Part 2 was bad. Its that it could have been good. There were a lot of plot points with a lot of potential that could have been built up more, particularly Cassies relationship with Marcus which felt seriously undeveloped. Or how about her actually pursuing her a career as model only to profit sucked into that world too much and ultimately suffer a relapse of her anorexia. This was a missed opportunity and an anti-climatic end to Cassies story."
Skins: Rise
Reception for "Skins Rise: Part 1" was generally sure in the UK.
DigitalSpyUK gave the episode 4/5 stars, stating "Skins Rise thrills in a way that its predecessors didn't - it's plenty dark in places, but also fascinating and outlandish in every the ways that classic Skins was. It may have its flaws, but part one of Rise is certainly the stand-out installment from these final Skins episodes, with Jack O'Connell anchoring Jamie Brittain's script with a typically magnetic central performance.
Similarly, reception for "Skins Rise: Part 1" was generally certain in North America.
DenofGeek gave the episode a positive review, stating "It might prove a blessing and a curse to finish with this story, as I cant see a happy ending upon the horizon. Where else it would have been placed, I dont know, but the strength of this first episode suggests that, even if Skins goes out upon a unhappy or tragic note, itll also go out upon a creative high. I guess thats every we can ask of this seventh series for, while it has defied expectations to good and bad effect, one thing it cant be faulted upon is the realisation of and love for its characters. This episode, like the others, will split opinion, but Skins has never shied away from controversy, has it?"
Whatculture.com gave the episode 4/5 stars, stating "Jamie Brittain does it again. After the last time he wrote an episode featuring Cook ( Series 4 Episode 7), there was some doubt in my mind about how well hed pick up upon the character and his story but here he has excelled himself with an episode thats well-paced and exciting but also manages to have a lot of depth, along with a shockingly dark climax. But as with basically everything, this episodes not completely perfect. The first ten minutes are a tiny slow and the first of the episodes two sex scenes feels a bit gratuitous and played for laughs, which feels somewhat at odds with the darker tone that builds up later upon but those issues arent enough to negatively affect the whole episode."
Channel 4 released a preview of his series Southcliffe, a drama in 4 parts that are interested in the history of a city devastated by shootings, where we can also see the former members of Skins, Kaya Scodelario (Effy) and Joe Dempsie (Chris ).
This series written by Ton Grisoni (Red Riding, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas) will speak as a little town affected by a series of shootings that took place in a single day. Expose the tragedy, grief, responsibility and redemption through the eyes of the friends of the victims and, above every, the journalist from the town who returns to lid the depressed events.
