The last time we saw the manic-hedonistic James Cook in Skins, he was seconds away from killing or being killed in one of the most intense cliffhangers in the show’s history. Cut forward three years, and the alive-and-well Cook works for a drug dealer in bleak suburban Manchester.
We caught up with Skins co-creator Jamie Brittain for a chat ahead of Series 7’s final two-part story, Skins Rise.
E4 has released two new clips from the first part of Skins Rise, starring Jack O’Connell as Cook.

The final series of Skins continues next week on E4 with the first part of Skins Rise, starring Jack O’Connell as Cook.
After a slow-paced first half, Skins Pure continues to dawdle into its concluding hour. It becomes apparent it has no intention of picking up the pace and this might be the whole point.

Skins fans who are expecting a Cassie episode of daydreaming, drugs and quirkiness could spend the entire hour waiting for a “wow!” or to hear some reference of Sid, but neither transpire. 2013’s Cassie is something of a surprise, and the drastic development of the character will certainly divide fans.
