Skins' Lily Loveless To Star In New Feature Film, "Fear Of Water"

This film could not be more exciting.

It looks so authentic, genuine, and it doesn't hurt that it comes with a British, all-star cast.


Not only does Skins star Lily Loveless appear in the film, but blink and you'll miss Sara Stewart of Sugar Rush fame. The feature also welcomes newcomer, Chloe Partridge, who looks like she will not let us down.

And before you ask, you will be relieved to know that yes, this is a lesbian-orientated film. Score.

But what is it about?
The story revolves around 2 teenage girls with parallel lives but coming from different socio-economic backgrounds who meet one summer to discover friendship and a sexual awakening.

Directed by young Brit, Kate Lane, she explains what inspired her to create the movie.
I wanted to tell my story of when I came out as a lesbian. I always felt different growing up but was afraid to admit to who I was until that infamous summer. I think I was about 16.  As soon as I admitted to myself and to others it was an amazing feeling of freedom I had never experienced... a breaking free of sorts! I made this movie with producer Rebecca Tranter who like me felt if we could help at least one girl in the world who was struggling with her sexuality... then the journey of making this film would prove successful.’
Amen to that.

Stay tuned for more information regarding the release of Fear Of Water!

Lesbian Favourite "Skins" is Cancelled

Whether you're from the UK or not, you'll have heard about Skins. Whether that's because a US version recently aired on MTV or because you're a lesbian and you can't help but love 'Naomily', everyone knows of it.


Yep, now you're remembering. Every lesbian I know has shipped Naomily (Lily Loveless, left, who played Naomi, and Kathryn Prescott, who played Emily) in some way, shape or form during their lives.

Anyway, Skins, sadly, has recently been cancelled by UK television network, Channel 4.


If you've stuck with Skins up until Generation 3, you'll have also spotted that the writers built-up fan-favourite, 'Minky'; an amalgamation of Mini (Freya Mavor) and Franky (Dakota Blue Richards) - two girls who seemed destined to be together until their storyline was ignored in season 6.


What I'm trying to say is, Skins was epic in terms of both lesbian and gay, male relationships. (There was also generation 1's Maxxie and generation 3's newbie, Alex, to keep the men happy).

It'll be sad to see it go...

But for all of you who aren't ready to see it go just yet, there will be a season 7!

What would you like to see in the final season? Do you think the writers will include any LGBTQ relationships?

Comment with your thoughts!

The New Naomily?

If you're a Skins UK fan, you're probably going to know who Naomily are.

You know, the really cute lesbian couple from Skins UK's 2nd generation of characters.


Anyway, if you don't know who they are, Naomi (left, Lily Loveless) and Emily (right, Kathryn Prescott) were the most recent teen couple on our screens that portrayed the love of 2 lesbians.

Until now.

The 3rd generation of Skins UK has brought us pansexual Franky (Dakota Blue Richards), whom some believed at first was a transgendered character.

Anyway, the straight-laced, popular Mini (played by Freya Mavor) appears now to have a little bit of a crush on Franky.

Previously, fans saw a young, straight girl in Mini, who lost her virginity to her then boyfriend this series.

However, the series finale hinted a few times at Minky's relationship becoming something more.

But WAIT! There's another person in the mix.

With Franky being pansexual, it seems that she's also caught the eye of a male friend too. Matty (Sebastian De Souza) is clearly in love with her, making it hard for Mini to get a look in.


Anyway, a lot of fans boycotted the show this year, claiming the cast looked 'boring' and many believed they wouldn't live up to the first two generations.

However, if you give generation 3 a chance, they're actually an interesting lot.

You should check it out. Then tell me what you think of Franky & Mini's little love triangle.

Skins recaps the day after the episodes air!

If, like so many Skins fans, you live in the US and can't watch for months but can't wait that long, then look no further.

That's right, funky new review site The Daily Wiggle are publishing a re-cap of the new series of Skins every Friday before pretty much any other website.

Good news (maybe) for you: The review will be written by yours truly. That means you can expect plenty of information on this gorgeous pair:

The first 3 episodes have already been re-capped, so head to www.thedailywiggle.com to catch up! Episode 2 was all about Emily (played by Kathryn Prescott), so expect plenty of dyke drama there.

This Friday, Emily's twin sister Katie (Megan Prescott) gets her turn in the forefront, which probably means there'll be quite a bit of Naomily thrown in there.

I look forward to seeing you there!
