Skins is a teen drama that consists of the stereotypical presentation of teenage life. In the first episode we are presented with one of the main characters Tony. The shot zooms out from Tony lying in bed awaiting for his alarm. The mise-en-scene shows Tony's bed covers which consists of a photograph of a naked man and woman. The connotations of this suggests he is a sexually active boy. Once woken, the second shot of him is in his boxers as he is lifting weights. This suggests he takes care of himself and his appearance.
