    Should have stopped at season 3

    The first 3 seasons are fantastic! After that, the show goes downhill. The new characters are wooden and boring and the old characters just aren't likable anymore. Seasons one to three are funny, entertaining and real. The characters are relatable and fun and the storylines are interesting. Seasons four and five just aren't. The once likeable characters seem to have changed and become miserable and boring. The storylines are all based around Fizza and Kayla who do nothing but whine and moan and compete for the attentions of a lad who has absolutely zero personality. Honestly, when you've finished season three, turn it off.

    Fresh for British TV.

    A bit Mean Girls, Waterloo Road, Teachers. Secondary school drama that seems realer than most about modern Britain, though all the main characters, those with the most interesting, meatiest arcs in the first episode were the white characters, not that unlike Indian Summers, another recent Channel 4 series ostensibly setting out to create a 'balanced', evenly split portrayal of its racially divided milieu. I wonder if this will change in episode 2 or if this is simply how it is going to stay for the entire series...

    Must watch

    What can I say... this is a very well written show. It puts everything relevant in today's society out it the open no matter how ugly. And I'm not gonna it will rip your heart out seeing what teens today face on a daily basis.

    PS I want Mrs. Paracha as an Auntie because she's wonderful

    Good series run until series 3

    Good show until series 3. some stupid storyline but enjoyable

    Excellent but disappointing ending

    This review will not contain spoilers so i will not go in to the ending in detail however sadly it wasn't brilliant and a fresh new cast for season 4 would not be a good idea in my opinion. Away from that, I think that the show was absolutely wonderful and really shows you the difference in poverty in just one area and also the ongoing struggles that people go through when coming out or being in love with someone who doesn't love you back. Altogether I would recommend this show!
