That's all.

Yes I watch it, quality show normally but agree it wasn't a great ending.  

Was weird how they didn't finish some of the stuff between the characters i.e Kassie and Sid......especially as none of the characters are coming back in the next series as its going to be an entire new cast.

Overall the series has been a good watch though  8)

***************************************************
Entire 'Skins' cast will change
Saturday, March 29 2008, 10:58 GMT

By Dave West, Media Correspondent

The executive producer of Skins has confirmed its entire cast will change for the next series.

Bryan Elsley said: "There are risks associated with dumping a cast, but we just did it. There was some disquiet at the channel, but then they told us just to go with it.

"It's exciting - we never stand still and we can tell our stories in a new way."

Speaking at Broadcast's television drama conference this week, he also confirmed the show would stick to its pattern of introducing college-age characters, moving them on in the next series, then letting them go.

"The first year is about getting to know the kids, and the second gives us the advantage of being able to explore their psyches a little more," said Elsley.

The show will also continue to use a team of up to 20 writers, including newcomers.

Chris dying was a sad moment, quite liked it when they nicked the coffin though, they shouldn't have given it back as his dad was bit of a gimp although he improved as the episode went on.  Not sure how good it will be with a whole new cast but will give it a watch to see if its still as good, hopefully as the writers will remain it will be as quality as the first 2 series  :D

Series has been hit and miss again. The start of the series was really crap, the Billy Elliot stuff was annoying and the stalker story equally. Was amusing when she tried to get Anwar to look like Maxy though.

The whole Tony thing was pretty crap too.

Didn't watch the last episode after someone told me what would happen. I guess it was pretty obvious too, but meh.

Not sure I'll bother with it again.

I agree with Si Pie. Tony was shit at the start of the series, him and Michelle were a good plot in series 1.  Chris and cassie are the best characters in it. Fact.

The duede how plays tony lives in wokingham and was in the boozer I was in the other day. He looked about 13.

watched this last night had on sky plus. I thought the whole series was shit. the show used to fun abit dark in palce but fun where as this eries was all dark and moody i hardly laughed at all. The main charhater tony was reduced to shell and hardly featured. hopefully next series will be better as I have always fancied iffy hopefully she'll be in it and we'll get to see her riding around naked!
