'Will Young amazing on Skins'

A writer on Skins has praised Will Young for his upcoming guest stint.

Georgia Lester, who has written for the E4 teen drama since its second series, told DS that the cast and crew were impressed with his acting.

“He is playing the school counsellor. Am I allowed to tell you that?! He’s very funny. From what I’ve heard on set, everyone came away saying how amazing he was,” she said.

“He’s got some really funny quirks and he bonds a lot with one of our main characters, and helps that character at a time in need.”

Pauline Quirke has also been confirmed as a guest star on the fourth series, which begins January on E4.

USA To Remake Skins!

I’ve been reading up online that the USA is ripping off remaking Skins in Baltimore.

MTV, who will be remaking the series, are keen to “preserve the authenticity” of the show by including drug taking, sex and casting unknown actors to play the characters. Although when the British version of Skins is aired on BBC America, nudity and bad language is censored out so it will be interesting to see how far they dare go.

We are delighted to be making ‘Skins’ for the U.S. and in particular, for MTV who have embraced the show and its ambitions and unusual production process. We are looking forward to talking to teenagers across the U.S. and making a show that reflects their lives in every aspect,” said Charlie Pattinson, CEO, Company Pictures.

So, what do you guys think? Should the USA be remaking Skins or should they just come up with their own ideas? Post your thoughts in the comments!
