TEEN DRAMA SKINS returned to our TV screens last night when Skins Fire concluded with a dramatic twist. Would Emily and Naomi, or ‘Naomily’, get their happy ending?
Well, no. They were probably better off hiding. Major spoilers ahead…
The first instalment of the two-part episode dropped a bombshell last week when fan-favourite Naomi was diagnosed with cancer. But the optimism lived on, right up until she was declared terminal. As a result, invested fans have been discreetly going through the 5 stages of bereavement. It’s OK, let it all out.
Stage 1. Denial and isolation
2. Anger
Writer Jess Brittain got the bulk of it.
Existential questions were asked.
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance
We’re not quite there yet.
