Underrated Generation of Skins
david-g-browning-810-19842519 September 2018
So after watching this episode with tears in my eyes, I had to come on IMDb to see what kind of reviews had been written for this series or specifically this episode. Only to find no written reviews existed! How?

I watched Skins way back when it first aired, whilst I myself was in high school/6th form. I was a huge fan of the first four series' and was disappointed no characters would return, so I tried watching series 5, only to be filled with bitter disappointment. So I skipped series 5 & 6, and just gave up with the show all together. A few years pass and Skins comes back with 3 two part specials, to which I thoroughly enjoyed. However it wasn't until only two nights ago, I decided to give Series 5 a second chance. I'm so glad I did because I've binged all the episodes, up until this one and have fallen in love with the writing again and these new characters. You can tell it's an old show because the mobile phones they use, are very outdated but these series' are still incredibly relevant in today's society. This episode was particularly special and because I don't want to give anything away, I would suggest watching all episodes with these characters because they really are brilliant!

One of the most beautiful episodes of the show

Series 6 has it's own reputation as season of the show, mostly because of the drastic change of direction after S5.

This episode however has to be my favorite episode in the entire series. The cast of Gen 3 have their own flaws, some characters more than others (poor Franky), but I thought Rich and Grace were perfectly written and it's always nice to see them both on-screen.

Bittersweet is the word i would use to describe this episode. The camera work, visuals, music and dialogue were beautiful, even though the episode has a sad atmosphere to it.

It's sad to know that the rest of S6 goes downhill after this episode. It feels like Rich gets completely sidelined after this, but I'm happy he got his own episode. The ending made me shed a tear.

Warning: Spoilers
Rich goes to the hospital and manages to sneak in. Grace tells him to come here and she is so horny. Rich takes off his pants and they proceed to get on with it when Professor Blood comes in. Rich is kicked out in his underwear.

Grace has been taken to Switzerland and in the meantime Rich goes to Professor Blood's home. He watches childhood videos of Grace and tells her to not grow up. Growing up has so many problems with it.

Alo came to the home and they trash the place. Rich hears sounds of people moaning and goes to the bedroom to see Mini bouncing on Alo. Mini is shocked to see Rich.

Rich tells Alo that Mini would have sex with anything.

The gang is outside the home and Mini comes out - I love her outfit - green sports bra and jean overalls. Rich lies for her that she was looking for her straighteners.

They host a concert and party for about 300 people at the home and the partiers ruin the home. Rich thinks he sees Grace in the crowd and goes to her room. Her pink bra is on the floor and she is in bed. They have sex.
