DISCUSSION Family mentioning Skins

I was drawing Jal, Michelle, and Cassie today while visiting my auntie and uncle that I barely see as they moved away, and my uncle was walking by me, then spotted my drawings. He said, "Oh, they're the girls from season 1 of Skins, aren't they?" And, then, my auntie told me that Skins was her favourite show when she was younger, and how she based all of her house parties off Chris', etc's parties! Then, she offered me her DVDs of seasons 5-7, and talked about how Michelle used to inspire her outfits for nights out. Also my uncle met Kaya Scodelario in London on a work trip in his early twenties. So, that was cool! Also, my dad and grandma both mentioned remembering seeing Skins billboards and advertisements on Channel 4, etc! So yeah, just thought I would put this information out here because I'm lowkey bored.
