Sorry for the lack of updates, I’m not sure what is gonna happen with the site atm but will let you guys know. x

Site update

Hey guys,

Just to keep you updated, Hayley and I are both very busy at the moment HOWEVER I am working (when I can) on a completely new version of Skins Nation which is based around you the fans being actively involved in the site and having more control aside from just posting comments.

I’m also undergoing the *painfully* slow process of going through over 2700 posts on the site and updating each post with upto date tags and properly categorising it all so that news articles, pictures, videos, etc are all much easier to find.

Like I said this is a very slow process however I’m doing my very best to get it done by the end of September with a complete site re-launch ready for the start of the Skins series 4 promo campaign to begin.

Be an extra in Skins series 4

Skins 4 is filming right now and we need a crowd of 300 people for the opening scenes of the first episode. It’s a blinder of an opening sequence but we can’t tell you all about it here, though there may be some dancing involved.

How will it work?
The day in question will be long so pay attention:

The filming is in Bristol. Skins 4 will be able to provide transport for some of you from London, so decide whether it’s easier for you to get to London and we’ll transport you by coach to Bristol or if you can get to Bristol under your own steam.

Coaches will depart from west London around 8am on Monday 24th August and leave Bristol later that day around midnight back to London. If you are chosen to join us, full details (such as what to wear and where to meet in Bristol or London) will be provided by Company Pictures when you are contacted. You will also be able to contact the production company if you have any concerns.

Filming will take place on Monday 24th August 2009 between midday and midnight. Please note that you must be between the ages of 18 and 21 at the time of applying.

It will be a long day and hard work but loads of fun as well. The Skins production team work a 12 hour day which you will need to commit to as well. Although you will not be paid for the day you will of course be fed and watered all day, plus, you may even spot yourself on Skins, which in itself is priceless.

How do I get involved?
To submit your details, copy and paste the following fields below into an email, and send to skins4extras@gmail.com
Your Name
Your Mobile phone number
Your Address
Your Email addresses
Your Age (Must be 18 – 21)

Please state if you have any medical condition – for example you are epileptic or asthmatic – that we may need to take into consideration when filming you. There is a possibility that the filming may include flashing lights.

You will need to attach a full length picture of yourself.

The title of your email needs to be either BRISTOL if you can make your own way to Bristol, or LONDON if you need transport from London to Bristol, or LONDON OR BRISTOL if either is an option for you.

Just say no, kids
Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs will not be allowed on the coaches or on set.

Please help us
As you will be in the opening scene, it’s really important that you don’t give anything away before the show airs, as skins 4 is shrouded in secrecy and we want to make sure the opening scene is really special.

Alex is on holiday

Hey all,

I’m on holiday for two weeks so if you need to contact the site please email Hayley hayley@skinsnation.co.uk

Thanks,

Skins Series Four auditions [Update]

Hey Skins fans,

Since Skins series three ended we’ve been receiving hundreds of emails every day about auditions for series four.

We’ve now got an update on the auditions from Jamie Brittain (Skins co-creator):

At the moment, we are not holding public auditions for parts in Skins. If and when we do, an announcement will be made on www.e4.com/skins. Beyond that, there will be plenty of chances to be involved in the show, so stay tuned. As soon as we know something, you’ll know as well.

So please please please stop emailing us =)

Love

Alex and Hayley

p.s. stay tuned for some BIG updates to this site =)

Skins Nation ideas?

Hey guys,

This site is long overdue an upgrade and I’ve finally got some time to do it now that my first year of uni is over. I’ve got a few of my own ideas for this site but I’m just wondering if you’ve got any?

Sorry for the lack of news updates lately, there really hasn’t been much to report on.

Luke in new Miranda Hart sitcom

Skins star Luke Pasquilino has landed a guest role in a new BBC Two sitcom based on Miranda Hart’s life.

The actor, best known for his character of weed-smoking skateboarder Freddie in E4’s Skins, will be joined by regular cast members Patricia Hodge, Sarah Hadland, Sally Phillips and Tom Ellis.

Based on the semi-autobiographical writing of comedy actress Hart, the aptly titled Miranda follows her public school background, agoraphobic tendencies and attempts at dating.

“Since I can remember I have wanted to be a comedian and so to have my own show on the BBC is a total thrill, albeit slightly unnerving!” said Hart. “To have actors like Patricia Hodge and Sally Philips interested in my writing, let alone agreeing to do the job, is a real honour.”

The six-part series has commenced filming and is due to air this autumn.

Where do you want to see Skins Series 4 go? [open thread]

So the series four ideas are currently being thrown around and some storylines are being written at the moment. However series 3 brought a lot of mixed views to the table so we’re throwing this post open to see what you liked about this series, what you didn’t and what you’d have changed in the organisation/layout of the overall story and each character’s own personal development?

We’re not going to approve posts that just say shit like “ZOMG I LUVD EFFY CAUSE HER FASHION WAS AMAZING!”, we’re looking for interesting, thought provoking views.

It’s also worth mentioning that I know for a fact the Skins cast and crew do read this blog so who knows, maybe something you write may be implemented

Thank you!

From Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain.

On behalf of all the writers, the cast and the crew of Skins we’d like to thank everyone who watched and commented and rated and entered competitions; for making Series 3 our most successful ever. We’ve had an amazing year making the show. Sometimes we worked so hard we weren’t sure if we were still alive. Hope it was worth it, and anyway, it was so much fun that it probably shouldn’t be allowed.

We want you to know that all your comments and thoughts mean everything to us. We read them all and think carefully about what has been said; try not to sulk when you say bad stuff, and are happy if we’ve managed to surprise you or make you think about things in a different way.

A little respect to the new cast: We hope you’ll agree that they’re totally brave to bring out new characters boldly when so many of us had loved the first cast. So much some amazing stuff. Some of them had never acted before and they had a hard act to follow. They relied on pure talent and gave everything they had to make you believe in them as characters you could love, hate or both at the same time. Expect fireworks next year.

So the script team are hard at work trying to write stories for series 4 that will mean something to you. All we can say, is that things will happen that you’re not expecting. Some of it will be stupid, some of it will be funny, but in there, we’ll be trying to go right to the heart of things that matter.

Stand by for some announcements coming up in the next couple of months. There are big developments in the pipeline that will blow you away. And there will be more opportunities to get involved and show your creativity. In the meantime, once again, thank you to everyone. We’ll see you soon.

Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain.

Watch here

What did you think of episode 7?

I though it was good, JJ with Effy and Emily was cute, The thing with Katie and Freddie I just don’t get, first what happened to her bf danny? second would have been nice if they had like some scenes together before hand, I can’t remember from the top of my head them ever saying one word to each other.  I guess that’s it really it from me, Naomi episode still the best of the series for me.

leave us a comment below and tell us wot you think? yay or nay.
