Either i am too tired or that dosent make sense....i think that that ending was just a bit on the wrong side i seen some stuff on tv in my time but that kinda upset me..

we were told it was going to be dark and edgy and that's what we got, that's whats turned me off this series this season with all this dark drug stuff and craziness its just not skins to me here's hoping the next gang are awesome.

Ah i see, i tend to stay away from spoilers as well they spoil it. You get dark and dark and for me that ending was borderline way to dark was it needed?

oh that wasn't a spoiler the creator Jamie Brittain said in a tv magazine I read that this series would conclude the current gang but it wouldnt be nice and he wasn't wrong. I agree that was probably to far but its done its job its got people tweeting (some of the trends are "What the ****") and people shocked and talking about it.

Given, you got me their.

Jesus, that ending was sick and just a "WTF" moment. Knew this season would be dark etc, which I don't like. Bring on the new Season with new characters!

My thoughts exactly. I haven't really paid attention to this series, and have only watched a couple of the episodes. I didn't really know what to say when I saw the end, I don't think it's ever been that...dark before.

agreed, always hated the mass drug/alcohol side of skins. It's gone so far downhill. Just ****es me off as it's aimed at teenagers most of the time, a girl I know through a friend (15 years old) same she wants a ''skins life'', and yes, she's gotten into drugs and crap recently.

word.

i got fed up watching that last episode and turn it off.. i really think kara is struggling to play effy in this current state. she was great before though! :(

Agreed but she will have no story at all now, as it stood her and Freds were together and apart from the rest of the gang so now is she going to remain in hospital and been ruined by the doctor some more until a time when he can over power her?

Who know....have to wait till next week i guess.

'Skins' renewed for two more series

E4 has renewed Skins for two more series, it has been announced.

Auditions for series five and six will be held in London and Bristol in April.

Head of Channel 4 drama Camilla Campbell commented: "Skins has always been about new talent, both on and off screen, and the decision to recast the series every two years is one of the reasons Skins stands out as a truly distinctive show.

"It?s a testament to the talent and commitment of [creator] Bryan Elsley and his team that they are able to pull this off. Now another group of teenagers will have the rare opportunity to be part of a British drama series that says something about their lives and is one of the most exciting shows on television. I can?t wait to find out who they will be."

As previously reported, the entire current cast - including Kaya Scodelario and Luke Pasqualino - will leave the show when series four concludes next Thursday.

Series five, made by Company Pictures and Stormdog Films, will be made up of eight episodes.

Hopefully the stories with the new bunch won't be so dark and depressing.

I reckon the next series will be happier and more upbeat, then the second series will be more dark again.

I'm thinking Freddie's sister might be one of the next main characters for the new series, if they're following on from the last time where Effy appeared briefly in the first two series', then something bad happened to her brother, then she was one of the main characters of the current series'.

    • Good. I hope more people sue them for focusing on this worthless junk.
    • How about fire the guy who approved all the bad decisions? The guy who bought these studios in the first place? Oh wait, Satya is safe with his billions while the workers pay the price.
    • This had nothing to do with games. This is all about management wanting to squeeze as much money from Xbox to keep Microsoft's AI ambitions afloat. Someone has to make money to burn on AI.
    • GeekBook X16 Pro Intel Core Ultra 9 thin and light laptop gets a 17% discount by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a 17% discount on its top-of-the-range X16 Pro laptop. You may remember that we reviewed the X14 Pro back in February, which marked GEEKOM's debut into the ultrathin laptop segment. You can view the full specs below. GEEKOM X16 Pro Model NX14CM Dimensions 322.58 × 213.36 × 5.8 mm (12.7"L x 8.4"W x 0.23"T) Weight 997 g / 2.2 lbs Material Unibody Magnesium Alloy CPU Intel Ultra 5 125H (14C/18T, 24MB L3, 2.3-5.1 GHz, TDP 20W) Intel Ultra 9 185H (16C/22T, 24MB L3, 2.3-4.5 GHz, TDP 35W) Graphics Intel Arc graphics 8 Xe-cores @ 2350MHz 1024 shading units/stream processors (128 CUs), 8 Raytracing Cores, 64 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU Intel AI Boost, 11 TOPS / Up to 33 TOPS (CPU+NPU+GPU) Memory 32GB Dual-channel LPDDR5x 7467 MT/s Micron SODIMM Storage 1 x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4x4, Wodposit 1TB, 2 TB Display 16.0" IPS LCD, 2560 × 1600 (16:10) 100% sRGB, 120Hz Refresh Rate Camera 2MP 1080P 1 × Light sensor in camera module 1 × LED indicator in the camera module Windows Hello Support: No Mic 2 x Digital Mics integrated in the camera module Speakers 2 x 3813 (4Ω×2W) built in body Audio Codec: ALC269QN-VC3-GR Certificate: DTS: X Ultra Operating System Windows 11 Pro 25H2 Bluetooth Bluetooth 5.4 Wireless LAN MediaTek MT7922 M.2 Wi-Fi 6E LAN card Left I/O ports 1 x HDMI 2.0 2 x USB4 (40 Gbps) Right I/O ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A (5 Gbps) 1 x 3.5 mm Audio jack 1 x Camera Privacy Shutter Keyboard 78Key 1.2±0.2mm / Height 3.5±0.2mm (with backlight) White LED light in Caps Lock and Fn key Language: Default US Touch Pad Dimension: 120 x 71mm Material: Mylar Position: Middle Interface: I2C, Dualpoint button Dock Input port: 1 x Type-C 2 x USB 3.0, 1 x RJ45 1 x PD 1 x HDMI (Bio) Security Fingerprint sensor (in the power button) SD Card slot No Kensington Lock No Battery 77Wh (Input 20V, 3.25A) Power 65W PD GaN Fast Charge, USB-C to USB-C Warranty 2 years (Early Bird 1+1 Years) Deal price $1119.67 The X16 Pro is powered by the Intel Ultra 9 185H, which was released in Q4 2023 and is a 14th Gen Meteor Lake CPU designed for laptop/mobile using the Intel 4 architecture based on a 7nm process. The Ultra 9 185H features 16 cores and 22 threads running at up to 5.1 GHz. It also includes a dedicated NPU utilizing Intel AI Boost at 11 TOPS. On the graphics front, the 185H includes the still fairly capable ARC Graphics (not to be confused with the newer ARC 140T) integrated GPU with a max GPU frequency of 2350 MHz across 8 Xe-cores. It has been said that the iGPU is equivalent to the NVIDIA GeForce 3050 and GTX 1650 in gaming and synthetic benchmarks. Other highlights include an AMOLED display, LPDDR5x memory at 7467 MT/s, WiFi 6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and a fingerprint sensor built into the power button. AI PC? Although the Intel Core Ultra 9 185H includes a dedicated NPU, it's only 11 TOPS; therefore, it does not qualify as a Copilot+ PC. However, it can reach up to 33 TOPS with a combination of NPU, CPU, and GPU. As I said, although we only reviewed the X14 Pro, the unboxing is the same for the X16 Pro, which I noted in my review. The packaging is quite a nice experience. The outer box houses the X16 Pro box with a small compartment that contains the 5-in-1 Dock ($40 value), which appears to be an "Early Bird" inclusion. Upon removing the box cover, the X16 Pro is revealed sitting in a cardboard compartment with two small booklets of documentation. To the left of the X16 Pro are two cardboard compartments containing the 65W charger and Type-C USB cable. What’s In The Box 1 x GEEKOM X16 Pro Ultra-thin Laptop 1 x Type-C to Type-C cable 1.8M 1 x 65W GaN PD Fast Charger 1 x Warranty Card 1 x Thank You Card 1 x User Guide All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product. If needed, you can RMA or return locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, mainland E.U. has a German warehouse).
