So, series four of Skins ended last week, and that marks the last series for the second generation of the cast. The first generation have gone on to some fab things, especially Nicholas Hoult and Dev Patel — so I'm rather excited by the possibility of them coming back for a Skins movie! Back in December Channel 4 announced that they were in talks about it, and an overwhelming majority of you Read more
Channel 4 has confirmed that it is planning a Skins movie spin-off, Film4 are currently in "preliminary talks" about taking the Brit teen drama to the silver screen. There are no details on the plot yet, but wouldn't it be great if some of the old cast members came back to appear in the movie — maybe we'll see a Dev Patel cameo? A novel based on the series is also being written, but I have to Read more
Dev Patel turns nineteen years old today, and in celebration of his birthday I thought it would be fun to look back at his short career and all the massive success he's managed to fit into it! So from Skins to Slumdog Millionaire here's Dev Patel's life in showbiz! Read more
We all know what Dev Patel's been up to since the first cast of Skins left the show, but it was an exciting day for his ex-castmates Nicholas Hoult and Joe Dempsie yesterday, as each of them had a new acting project to show off. Nick is starring in New Boy, a new production in London's Trafalgar studios, in which he plays schoolboy Mark, who starts the sixth form desperate to become more popular Read more
When I was at T4 On The Beach in the summer I had a quick chat with ex-Skins star Joe Dempsie, who played the much-loved Chris in the first two seasons of the show. With Dev Patel doing so well with Slumdog Millionaire, and a brand new cast having taken over the reigns on the show, you might be wondering what the old cast are up to. Well here's a glimpse of Joe's post-Skins career, as he plays a Read more
Earlier I showed you lots of exclusive photos and shared a few brief moments I spent with those lovely McFly boys backstage at T4 On The Beach. I also saw a few of the cast from the fab TV show Skins, who played a DJ set in a sponsored tent before just hanging out backstage and enjoying the festivities. I was also lucky enough to have a chat with the ridiculously nice Joe Dempsie who was always Read more
Skins star Joe Dempsie proved that, unlike his character Chris, he's very much alive and well at last night's launch for brand new Hammer Horror film Beyond The Rave. The film is being shown as a series of webisodes on myspace, before being released on DVD later this year. Other attendees to the Shoreditch venue last night included familiar faces Damian Lewis, Jaime Winstone, Sadie Frost, Jamie Read more
So, that's it then? Last night we said a proper goodbye to Chris. And, for that matter, Sid, Tony, Cassie, Jal, Anwar, Michelle, Maxxie, Posh Kenneth and Sketch as Skins series 2 came to an end. So here, for the final time, are my thoughts on this episode... The dreaded A-level results day fell on the same day as Chris's funeral, and everyone agreed not to open their results until they'd said Read more
So last night's Skins episode was the penultimate one for this cast, and this time we were given a little insight into the mind of Cassie. And lets face it, we've kind of needed that this season, as she's become more messed up and less likeable. As always I really want to know what you all thought of Cassie's episode too, so make sure you leave some comments as you read my thoughts and let me Read more
Okay. I'm stilll a little upset by the events in last night's episode of Skins, not to mention the fact the cast will be replaced next season. Seeing it in black and white is a little sad, even if I was aware it was going to happen. Anyway, we were back with Jal last night and her crazy family, which meant we got a little more Chris too! I wasn't a massive fan of Jal in series one, and her Read more
