It seems only apt that Skins comes on after Embarrassing Bodies (which we have just realised is on a different channel) as every single one of the ?young adults? that consistently get their kit off on this programme should be ashamed of their skin sacks which are here being used for little other than to hold their organs in nearly the right places.
They should be embarrassed that, no matter what age they are, every single one of them is wearing tight hugging day glow boxers and ill-fitting bras. And they never wear those for long. And have you seen their sodding jewellery?
Congratulations are due to Skins though who last night tackled a real subject or at least attempted to. Alo was sent down kicking and screaming for cherry picking in the My Little Pony field, which as we all know is just plain sick and good television it does make as Skins effortlessly rode it's way to one of the best episodes of the season so far.
The ginger character who looks like an extra from Channel 5?s The Tribe met this young girl in circumstances which we paid no attention to because we were daydreaming, but they went to the woods and raved with the rest of the cast of The Tribe and it was all uphill from there, you know, minus the post-apocalyptic society and abundance of dreadlocks.
And paedophilia is a meaty subject which Skins has never had the tenacity to tackle before (that we’re aware of at any rate, and if they have then JEEZ, GET SOME NEW MATERIAL). There was some swift retribution, and mercifully, a lack of the tabloid fury of seeing the villain of the piece being buggered with his own penis and strung up by his nads. Instead, we saw him in prison and montages of him ?coping? with life as a kidfid though an almost light hearted lens… and heartbreakingly he lost all his Facebook friends ? WHAT?S A BOY TO DO?
It's all very modern and serious these days. Not even many drugs featured in last night’s episode which is disgusting frankly. How dare we be telling kids not to take substances with alarmingly hilarious names like ROFLCOPTER. You're old you want your children to have dangerous fun don't you?
Elsewhere, Mini is still pretending she can not have a baby enough though she definitely is, and Frankie is hiding in wardrobes wearing sickly pink jumpers like a massive gitbox and doing a lot of pleading.
We haven’t got a clue where it all went so right, but we’re loving this dross once again. Bring on Liv and her alcohol fuelled tantrums.
Remember when Grace died? That was weird.
