Sub-cutean treatment
With the closing act of Series 1 you knew it was going to be a much darker affair second time around- and oh yes, the skins kids have shed their cute-ish shells and are in for some growing up hell. proper.
Episode 1 may be the funniest episode of the lot, but it lets you glimpse things to come. Where Season 1 was more balanced in the drama and comedy department, the contrast here is much starker, crasser. There is hilarious bits and deeply disturbing developments, hearty laughs as well as emotional shocks.
Series 2 takes more patience, is much more difficult viewing, but is ultimately very rewarding. The 'pink fluffy fairy lights' are rarer, but when they come, their impact here is much greater and clearer than in the weed cloud shrouded first series.

That’s some tribute to Danny Boyle’s high-energy Indian melodrama – after all, it has had nothing like the exposure of the other, mega-budget offerings, and outside of its London Film Festival closing slot it hasn’t even shown on home turf yet. In case you have missed the buzz, this is the story of Jamal (Dev Patel,... Read more
