Everyone
It’s the first day of term at Roundview College and a new gang is forming. Best friends Freddie (Luke Pasqualino), JJ (Ollie Barbieri), and Cook (Jack O’Connell) are en-route to college. Their world collides with Effy’s (Kaya Scodelario), and Cook is intrigued – this trouble maker has met his match. However, both Freddie and JJ are equally smitten.
Identical twin sisters, Katie (Megan Prescott) and Emily (Kathryn Prescott), prepare for their first day; as per usual, Katie walks all over her sister Emily. Once at college, Effy and Katie clock one another immediately, whilst Effy’s best mate Pandora (Lisa Backwell) tells Effy she wants to lose her virginity "asap".
At college, Cook tries to charm the girl sitting next to him but instead winds her up. Naomi (Lily Loveless) doesn’t suffer fools gladly and grasses Cook up.
Effy issues smitten Freddie, JJ and Cook with a challenge to be completed by the end of the day. The winner will get to ‘know her’ better.
And so the first day at college begins...
If you’re searching for a gripping series that perfectly captures the essence of teenage life, look no further than Skam France. This French adaptation of the acclaimed Norwegian show SKAM delves deep into the trials and tribulations faced by high school students. With its blend of comedy, drama, and romance, Season 1 introduces us to Emma Borgés and her journey through friendship, heartbreak, and the quest for popularity.
The narrative kicks off with Emma, played by Philippine Stindel, who finds herself facing new challenges after losing her close-knit group of friends. As she navigates her first year at Lycée Dorian while dating Yann (Léo Daudin), Emma struggles to figure out where she belongs. The opening episodes set a relatable tone as viewers watch her grapple with trust issues regarding her boyfriend's past connections with Ingrid—her former best friend. This exploration of adolescent relationships is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever felt torn between loyalty to friends and romantic interests.
A significant aspect that sets Skam France apart from other teen dramas like The Summer I Turned Pretty or even classic shows such as Skins is its unique storytelling format. Each episode is released in real-time on social media platforms throughout the week, allowing fans to engage with characters beyond just watching their journeys unfold on screen. Characters maintain Instagram accounts that keep viewers updated on their lives through text conversations and posts—an innovative approach that adds realism and immediacy to their experiences.
