It’s impossible to take your eyes off him.” Jack O’Connell is singing the praises of Stephen Graham, whom he first met on the set of Shane Meadows’s modern classic This is England. Graham was 33; O’Connell was 16. They both played skinheads. Shorn skulls, fast fists, and racism never far away. “It was tough material but Stephen approaches it with this realism. He is just so…” O’Connell can’t find the words. Instead, the actor sinks into his sofa and shakes his head in awe. He’s still sporting the buzz cut.
In fact, the same can and has been said of O’Connell himself. The 32-year-old has been making easy work of tough material ever since his film debut as the braces-wearing spark plug Pukey in This Is England. The parts that followed mined similar wells of emotions. Namely, anger. For the better part of two decades, O...

It’s been a decade since Skins, E4’s controversial teen drama, premiered. At the time, it was a source of anxiety for parents about what teenagers were getting up to when they weren’t looking, but for television executives it was pure gold. It achieved that rare feat - it got young people to watch and talk about it - and, after seven years of drinking, drugs and general debauchery, it bowed out in 2013.

Here's one of those 'This'll make you feel old' factoids - it's two years since the last ever episode of Skins aired.
E4's groundbreaking hormone-fest wrapped up on August 5, 2013 - with an older Cook (Jack O'Connell) heading off into an uncertain future at the close of 'Rise (Part Two)'.
Cook was but one of 27 major characters featured on Skins across three 'Generations' - in a total of 61 episodes, split into seven series. But where are the teen tearaways of Roundview College now?
Generation One
1. Nicholas Hoult
Hoult played Tony Stonem - the pre-eminent bad boy of Skins - across its first two series. Later badly hurt in a traffic accident and forced to rely on others, Tony had mellowed by his final episodes.
Now aged 25, Hoult has become a bona-fide Hollywood star with roles in this year's Mad Max: Fury Road and the much-anticipated book adaptations Dark Places and Kill Your Friends.

12 year old newcomer Sennia Nanua has been cast in the lead role of 10 year old Melanie in She Who Brings Gifts, the feature film adaptation of M.R. Carey's novel The Girl With All The Gifts.
Sennia, from Nottingham is a member of the renowned Television Workshop, and played Skins star Laya Lewis's sister in the short film Beverley.
She will star alongside Glenn Close, Gemma Arterton, and Paddy Considine in the sci-fi film, which will be directed by Colm McCarthy.
Director Colm McCarthy says of his twelve year old star: “Sennia walked into the room as the last of 500 girls I’d met and just shone. She has taken being the lead actress in a film with Glenn, Gemma and Paddy in her stride and completely inhabits this amazing character. She’s a very special girl.”

So here we are at the final Skins episode of series six and the last-ever regular episode. The series has, overall, been fascinating, entertaining, enjoyable and generally pretty great, and I’m pleased to report that the finale holds up well.
We start off with Mini (Freya Mavor) lying in the hospital after last week’s near miscarriage. Yes, she is still pregnant and the baby is fine. Also, her friend Liv (Laya Lewis) is there with her, keeping her company.
Meantime, Franky (Dakota Blue Richards) is shown returning home after last week’s adventure. We watch as she proceeds to trash her dads’ room, and eventually uncovers her adoption records. She takes them and flees, hitching a ride with a trucker to take her the long distance from Bristol to Birmingham.
Back in Bristol, Nick (Sean Teale) and Matty (Sebastian de Souza) are sitting in...

So welcome to one of the last episodes of Skins and the first to air since the network announced the cancellation of the show last week. Well, sort-of cancellation, anyhow. They will be doing three hour long specials next year, which should let us catch up on each of the generations. That will be nice.
Anyhow, this episode focuses on Liv (Laya Lewis) and her problems dealing with Grace’s death. Yes, even all these episodes later, we’re still dealing with fallout from that, which I suppose isn’t unreasonable, but it’s taken up a lot of time this season. We also get quite a lot more male nudity than usual, and, so…yeah. There’s that.
We begin at school with everyone learning about their final exams. Liv is there physically, but mentally she’s a million miles away, and as soon as the exams notice is done,...

Skins star Laya Lewis has revealed that she thinks the show will go out on a high. Yesterday, it emerged that the E4 programme will come to an end after its seventh series next year. The final run will feature appearances from former cast members. Lewis, who plays third generation character Liv, has now told Digital Spy that she always expected to leave the show after two series. "It's kind of weird because I've geared myself up - as soon as I got [the role] I geared myself up because I knew I only had two years," she said. "I think once episode ten comes out, we're already prepared that it's ended for us. "I didn't know what kind of direction they were going to take it in, but there's always that thing hanging over Skins of how much more can you do with another generation of teenagers? So I think it's...

So this week E4 gives us the story of Nick (Sean Teale), a character about whom I have next to no thoughts. Him and his brother, Matty (Sebastian de Souza), have consistently managed to avoid leaving any real impression on me. I wish I could say that this week’s episode changed that, but, well…
We begin with Nick, Franky (Dakota Blue Fanning), Liv (Laya Lewis), and Alex (Sam Jackson), at a party. A man is doing a very bad job of hitting on Franky and then plays some horrible music while Franky and friends mix up some drugs. Eventually they leave and Franky steals a bike, which Nick uses to get her and him to her place.
Once there it begins to rain, and Franky invites Nick inside. Her bedroom is covered with little bits of art, which is a nice reminder of her artistic...

I never cared much for the character of Mini (Freya Mavor). I found her to be too self-absorbed and bitchy, and even though we’re made aware that she uses that self-absorbed bitchiness as a shield to keep herself from getting hurt by the world, that still doesn’t compensate for the fact that I find her to be very unappealing. Nevertheless, the character was redeemed, at least somewhat, in this most recent episode.
We begin with Mini and her recent boy-toy Alo (Will Merrick) shagging in a bathroom stall at a club. During the act, Alo tells Mini he loves her, which results in what I believe gymnasts term a “hasty dismount”. Liv (Laya Lewis) then walks in, and Alo has to sneak off.
Mini stalks off and goes home, where she’s stuck lying in bed listening to her mother and her mother’s boyfriend having noisy sex.

So last week Grace shuffled off this mortal coil and joined the likes of Chris and Freddie on the Skins Death Roll. I’d really hoped the producers would manage to go an entire generation without killing off anyone. I mean, most mainstream dramas manage to find a way to kill less people than this show does. But we must deal with the world as it is, and not as we want it to be.
This episode sees the introduction of a new character, Alex (Sam Jackson). I’m not sure why they waited until now to introduce him, what with there being only a few episodes left with this generation, but that’s ok.
We start with a close-up of a map showing Russia, which gives me a nice flashback to Tony and Maxxie’s tender moment on the continent. From there we go to...

The Skins Series 5 gang are all set to return along with a new character, Alex, played by Sam Jackson (a member of Northern Film and Drama, now represented by Hamilton Hodell) from Leeds, when Skins returns to E4 for a sixth series this January.
Sam said of his character: “Alex is at first very mysterious, I think he comes across as quite elusive and you’re not really sure what he’s all about. He’s very charismatic and confident in himself and is very flirty, he flirts with both genders, and doesn’t care.
"He comes into the series at a point where the gang are a bit down, they’re very unhappy and he finds it difficult to make friends with the gang, they don’t really like accepting someone new but he manages to befriend Liv who takes a shine to him and you see their friendship...

Holla! This week I bring you the final episode of the majestic "The Promise," get back to grips with "Skins" and find it worth sticking with, and -- saving my vitriol for last -- wonder what the hell is happening to the world as I attempt to watch "Mrs Brown's Boys." It's a mixed bag, to say the least.
The Promise
"The Promise", Peter Kosminsky's riveting and painful examination of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in 1946 and the present day, concluded on Sunday. It has been by far the best programme of the year, and for quite some time that I can think of. It is one of those shows in which every detail feels perfectly researched and created, and everyone brings a fierce, convincing commitment to their roles. Everything was at the service of an immaculate, difficult, long and devastating series that successfully shed a compassionate light on a very tangled matter.

Laya Lewis has admitted that she was afraid it would take a long time for fans of Skins to adapt to the new cast. Lewis plays Liv in the fifth series of the E4 drama as one of several new lead actors introduced to the show this year. "It's all been good feedback - no-one's said anything negative to me," she told Digital Spy. "I haven't read anything on the internet anyway. So far, so good - better than I thought it would be.

Well, that was quite a ride! Four episodes in to the new batch of Skins, it was Liv's turn to take centre stage and she certainly didn't disappoint! Danger, drugs, drinking and doing it... this episode recalled some of the dizzier moments from previous series of the teen drama. Hoping that Liv had survived after downing those two bottles of vodka, we got on the phone with actress Laya Lewis to talk about her episode. That was pretty full-on! What was it like filming so many intense scenes so close together?
"It was just mental! With Skins you don't really know anything about your character or how you're going to play them until your episode. It was really enjoyable reading it. The first draft they wrote was just fun all around, really light-hearted. Then they re-wrote it and it was really dark and I was pretty worried about if I'd...

"I was very aware that we all had big shoes to fill when we first came on to the set back in July," she said. "On the first day, I was pretty terrified, but we all were - we're all teenagers who have never done anything like this before. It's entirely new to us." However, Lewis explained that she gets on well with her co-stars, saying: "There is a bit of pressure at first to make friends with the new cast - (more)...
