just finished watching on 40d....my opinion on this episode was that it was much better than last weeks and had some skins moments, although its still lacking something.
definitely think the reason is that in series one, you had to an extent the stereotypical characters but they fitted together well as a group of friends making it more realistic and they were clearly good friends so it was easier to get attached
i think with this series and the last they're trying too hard with different types of characters to make it new and interesting, and although they still try to give them depth by characters episodes it seems forced and rushed, especially as they arent really friends so other than their characters episodes, you dont really get that much of a chance to see them develop. its definitely too "character episode" orientated. also the acting isnt the best...
on the other hand....nick is a sexy beast XD
and i know ill be watching it next week..
