If I see another person saying 4x05 was the best Skins episode ever, I'm gonna go insane, so I thought I'd share with u the enormous mistakes the writers have made with Effy's character.
According to the symptoms Effy had in her episode, she is not only psychologically depressed, she is schizophrenic.
Here is the diagnosis for schizophrenia:
People diagnosed with schizophrenia usually experience a combination of positive (i.e. hallucinations, delusions, racing thoughts), negative (i.e. apathy, lack of emotion, poor of nonexistant social functioning), and cognitive (disorganized thoughts, difficulty concentrating and/or following instructions, difficulty completing tasks, memory problems).
The reason I bring this up is not to start a shipping war, I am only doing this because Effy Stonem is my favoriete chracter and I think it's a shame they're treating her like this.

This is taken directly from the dvd commentaries. I noticed a lot of people wanted to know what he had to say about this. This is what he says during the last scene of Cook, Effy and Freddie together.
"The kind of point of this sequence, I suppose, I mentioned it earlier, is that Freddie makes the mistake of thinking of leaving and Cook picks up on that, seeing his bag. And I suppose for that, he's punished, is what Neil(?) the scriptadapter would say if he was here. But that's his kind of transgression - he should've been there for her through thick and thin and realize that something was wrong with her and he eventually does, of course, but it's too little too late. "

"He was very romantic." - KAYA
"It's good that he's an actor because he understands it all. And we can practice our lines together. He'll stay with me for a week, and we go to my family's place in Brighton. It's just amazing that we manage to make it work. It just sort of happened. We don't need to try." - KAYA

Skins ster Dakota Blue Richards has dropped hints about the upcoming sixth series.
The actress, who plays Franky Fitzgerald, told Digital Spy that her character will become involved in a controversial new storyline.
"I have a vague idea what's in store," she teased. "It's quite dramatic. I think it's going to be a bit of a 'Marmite' storyline, you're either going to love it of hate it. Hopefully [people will] love it. It's going to be a challenge."
Richards added that she had been "learning all the time" while filming the show's fifth series, which concluded in March.
"We didn't know who our characters would end up being, because they kind of wrote it as we went along," she said. "It was actually a really interesting way of working, because it allowed me to put a lot meer of my own thoughts into [the character]."

Jamie Brittain, co-creator of Skins, confirmed this morning on Twitter than Skins series 5, if it is commissioned, and they will hold open auditions for a new cast
To clarify. Skins will hopefully have a fifth series, but we have not yet been re-commissioned. It will have a new cast. We will hold open auditions to cast it. I don’t know any details beyond that. We’re still working on series 4!
