Skins Axed

[Smithy]

Channel 4 has announced that Skins will bow out with one final series.

The E4 teen drama has been recommissioned for a special seventh run - made up of three films broken up into six parts - to be broadcast in 2013, Digital Spy can confirm.

Famous Skins characters from the past five years will appear in the 'celebratory' series.

Nicholas Hoult (Tony), Kaya Scodelario (Effy), Jack O'Connell (Cook) and Luke Pasqualino (Freddie) are among those who could return.

"Channel 4 today confirmed that next year's series of E4's teen drama Skins will be its last," the broadcaster said this evening.

"The new series will be a celebration of this truly iconic series, and will go to air in early 2013."


"Skins is a brilliant show which has defined a generation and will go down as a game-changing piece of television," the statement added.

"But after seven series it is time for E4 to make way for the next generation of the bold, the new and the innovative."

Skins, which launched in 2007, is currently airing its sixth series every Monday at 10pm on E4.

Glad it's finally ending, but old faces :amazed:

>>> the rest

I didn't think we'd see another generation which is a shame as the current series has been quite strong. I'm guessing they'll use the next series to solve cliffhangers from the previous series. I can see the first film being mainly about Sid and Cassie while the second would be about Effie and potentially Cook and who knows what the third one will be about.

[CharlieO]

Will tune in for the last series but glad its ending.

[Shaun]

4 series too late but yay.

[Ramsay]

Hope some of the 3rd generation make an appearance

I'm sad it's ending. The current series has been great, people just haven't gave it a chance because S5 was awful. Looking forward to seeing all the old characters back though.

[Locke.]

Freddie died? Saywut

Penultimate ep of Season 4 "Effy"

Effy has been in a psychiatric hospital, but with the help of Anthea and her counsellor John Foster, she finds the will to get stronger and return home. Her life is now dictated by routine and self-control. Anthea has completely cleared out her room so that there’s no evidence of the old Effy remaining. She appears happy, clear and hopeful for the future. However, Anthea and Freddie become worried about her counsellor's methods when she begins to reject her identity, her friends and her bad memories. She relapses when she and Cook walk past the scene of Tony’s accident and returns to hospital. Effy is upset when Foster arrives and Freddie threatens him, telling him to stay away. Foster then invites Freddie to his home where he admits to using unusual methods in Effy's case and to having feelings for her. However, as Freddie is about to leave, he finds the door is locked. Foster then lifts a baseball bat and brutally beats Freddie to death. Final appearance of Freddie.

:joker::joker::joker::joker::joker:

[Shaun]

Oh yeah! The psycho psychiatrist. Forgot about that.

[Patrick]

Freddie died? Saywut

Even I knew that and I don't watch it LOL.
He got beat with a baseball bat.

[Ramsay]

delighted when that happened he was such a wuss

[Bollo]

series 1 was brilliant, the rest not so much

I agree, after series one the originality seemed to fade away and the actors got worse

[Shaun]

tbh Freddie was such a dull character that he could've been revealed to be a perpetrator of 9/11 and I'd still have replied with nonchalance
