Ryan Sheely, Jordan Stokes, and Matthew Wrather begin TFT Summer School by starting on British TV series Skins, covering Series 1, episodes 1 and 2, including: race, class, Britain and America; accents; Tony’s political style; art and audience; the moral responsibility of art; and (shock!) The Wire.
There will be no spoiler warnings and there will be many naughty words. If either of those things bothers you, don’t click!
