Series 3 (Generation 2)

The character video diaries functionally replaced Unseen Skins for the third series. A new diary was posted on the E4 website following the broadcast of each episode, and the diary often pertained to the events of that episode.

8"Emily's Video Diary""Effy"

Effy sends out messages during a stop in her road trip with Cook via webcam to her brother and mum.

10"Thomas's Video Diary""Finale"

Thomas sends his friend Moses (in the Congo) a message about the British people and their wonderful, weird ways. And a song?

The Lost Weeks

To explain what had happened to each character between series 1 and 2, a series of videos called "The Lost Weeks" were aired exclusively on E4.com. The episodes are as follows:

#Title
1"Effy's Video Diary"

Tony's sister recorded this in his room when he was in a coma.

2"Skins Christmas Special"

Seasonal greetings from the Skins gang.

3"Michelle's Video Diary"

"Black is such a slimming colour."

"Kenneth has an ode for Jal."

7"Sid's Bedside Vigil"

Sid visits his best mate Tony.

8"Anwar's Video Diary"

9"Chris' Message to Angie"

Chris wants to show how much he misses Angie, and cares for the Data Protection Act.

10"Messages to Tony"

Sid had a plan to reach Tony.

Although several of these videos bear the same name as a character video diary they are two separate videos. [3]
