New Skins - Series 2 Episode 1
Monday saw the return of popular E4 drama, Skins.Tony is still suffering from the effects of being run over at the end of the last series. He’s a bit slow mentally, he can’t write, can’t goto the toilet on his own, gets flashbacks when he sees a bus and is suffering from odd eyebrows. Sid and Michelle are nowhere to be seen - apparently unable to cope with what he has become - and only Maxie seems to really be keeping an interest in looking out for Tony.
Maxie’s story is starting a resemble a cross between Beautiful Thing and Billy Elliot. Gay guy trapped on a council estate, with a (not quite convincing) hardman dad played by Bill Bailey who doesn’t want him to go off to become a dancer.
