Skins, the E4 series that aired from 2007 to 2013, made a significant impact on its audience by portraying the lives of a group of Bristol teenagers navigating the challenges of sixth form. The show was loved for its blend of comedic moments and emotional twists, but it also sparked controversy due to its depiction of sex, drugs, and partying. Despite the debates, the series garnered numerous awards and continued for several seasons, even featuring a special 7th season to update fans on the characters' lives post-graduation.
The show served as a launching pad for the careers of its cast, with actors such as Dev Patel, Daniel Kaluuya, Nicholas Hoult, and others finding success in the global entertainment industry.
