List of Skins characters
Wikimedia list article
The British teen drama Skins follows the lives of a group of teenagers in Bristol, southwest England, through the two years of sixth form. Its controversial storylines have explored issues such as dysfunctional families, mental illness (such as depression, eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and bipolar disorder), adolescent sexuality, gender, substance abuse, death, and bullying.
Each episode generally focuses on a particular character or subset of characters and the struggles they face in their lives, with the episodes named after the featured characters. The show was created by father-and-son television writers Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain for Company Pictures.

Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
