In My Skin

This is a stunning drama. The script beautifully captures the tragedy and comedy of life. I was gripped from start to finish. You will not be disappointed in this wonderful series.

Funny, sad, horrible and brilliant. Wonderful acting, story, script and overall production. Lead actors Gabrielle Creevy and Jo Hartley are particularly brilliant and deserve awards for this.

This is one of the best depictions of a teenagers troubled life I've ever seen. The ending of the last episode of the first season was a real cliffhanger, so I am very excited to see the next season. The actors are all very good. It is labelled as a comedy, not without reason, because there is a lot of dialogues and situations that makes me smile, but the excitement and dark side of life is always there. Bethan may seem like a dandelion child, but as always there are many layers in the human life, and this drama does not simplify things. That is what impresses me most here.

I don't really know where to begin, here. The actors are brilliantly cast. All of them. And they all stand out with a credible personality, the students, parents, teachers, the Chippy guy...

Bethan has a harder time than most in her extremely dysfunctional home, but still manages to find the inner strength to survive. Going through all the relatable conflicts and good times in and outside of school, she balances ever so narrowly without plunging into the abyss. It's dark, but it is beautiful, it is ever so relatable, and I recommend it as one of the must-sees. If you are young, or you have young ones living at home, or you need a reminder what being young is like - watch it.

I haven't seen a lot of Welsh series, so I did need the occasional subtitle support, but the accent really has a beautiful melody to it. Now I want to visit the country!

I hope there's a series 2! This was incredibly acted, funny but also heartbreaking, great witty one liners then moments that are so steeped in emotion it is not like anything I have seen before. 10/10
