I kind of hate the way Skins feels the need to invent ridiculous plotlines just to create drama. I think it would be plenty interesting if it was just character-driven rather than bringing in all these ludicrous external elements.
This was my problem with inane characters like Mad Twatter and the like. They create these fascinating characters and then bring in caricatures. It's bizarre and I kind of want to find JB et al and SHAKE THEM and say "don't you realise you're onto a good thing here? Don't mess with it FFS"
(I haven't finished said story. My bad! I'm in Kalgoorlie which is in the middle of nowhere on work experience. The internet connect is shite here so I have loads of free time in the evening, which is when I'm going to get on it. Even more so, since the first ep re-affirmed my massive lesbo love for JJ)
BTW, my JJ/Thomas idea doesn't look so insane now, does it?
