Teen drama Skins may be axed at the end of its current run, according to one of its stars.

Kaya Scodelario, who has played Effy Stonem in all three series of the show, told London Lite that the actors are yet to hear from producers about the future of the programme.

Scodelario said: "I'm really hoping we do a fourth series of Skins, but I'm not sure it's going to happen.

"They haven't told us yet, what with the credit crunch and all. We finished filming [the third] series just before Christmas, so at the moment I'm just relaxing."

Scodelario was one of only two teen cast members who returned to the show when it was relaunched this year.
