Skins/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Ironically enough.

* [[Only Sane Man]]: More or less. Still has his issues, but handles them a lot better than most of his friends.

* [[Performance Artist]]

* [[Shirtless Scene]]: With nudity.

* [[Demoted to Extra]]: Essentially what happens after his Series 4 episode.

* [[Did I Just Say That Out Loud?]]: Has a lot of these moments, from telling Effy that Cook was sleeping with someone else to {{spoiler|outing Emily to her sister}}.

* [[Good with Numbers]]

* [[Incompatible Orientation]]: {{spoiler|He and Emily have sex despite the fact that Emily is gay. He actually thought the two of them getting together was possible when Emily chose him as her Love Ball date - but that was only because of Emily's mother and sister's homophobia, and once Naomi showed up Emily happily went with her}}.

* [[Motor Mouth]]: When he gets "locked-on".

* [[Odd Friendship]]: With Emily and with Thomas. His friendship with Thomas in particular came out of ''nowhere''.

* [[Serenade Your Lover]]: What he does {{spoiler|to get Lara back after she dumps him because he beat up her baby daddy}}, with his adorable rendition of "True" by Spandau Ballet.

* [[TV Genius]]: Subverted - he has all the traits to fit the trope, but he's never made out to be any smarter than anyone else (except in terms of remembering lots of random facts). His social isolation is his defining factor. He does however excel in mathematics, as he clearly states in his form introduction.

* [[Berserk Button]]: Don't mention his mum.

* [[Big Eater]]

* [[The Friend Nobody Likes]]: In Series 3.

* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]

* [[Last-Name Basis]]

* [[Odd Friendship]]: With Naomi, by Series 4.

 

=== Frederick "Freddie" Mclair ===

 

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: He's not a fan of Karen's decision to exploit their mother's memory to help her win Search for a Sexxbomb, but he cheers for her at her final performance, {{spoiler|comforts her when she loses}} and {{spoiler|when Cook laughs about how he and JJ voted against her for stealing their shed, Freddie nearly punches his lights out}}.

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: With Cook.

* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}

* [[Missing Mom]]: Well, dead mom.

* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: The show likes to remind us of Freddie's nice chest.

* [[Shirtless Scene]]: Seems to enjoy leaving his shirt at home even in the ''non''-sex scenes.

* [[The Stoner]]

* {{spoiler|[[Friends with Benefits]]: With Alo, starting in the first episode of Series Six}}.

** {{spoiler|[[Secret Relationship]]: She doesn't want anyone to find out about her and Alo}}.

* [[Girl Posse]]: Well, to start with anyway. {{spoiler|Not anymore}}.

* {{spoiler|[[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?]]}}

* {{spoiler|[[Have I Mentioned I Am Sexually Active Today?]]}}

* [[I Just Want to Be Beautiful]]

* [[In Love with Love]]

* [[Internalized Categorism]]

* [[Kick the Dog]]: Making Liv drink a bottle of vodka after she's already had far too much to drink.

* [[The Matchmaker]]: Tries to do this with {{spoiler|Franky and Matty}}, presumably to get back at Liv.

* [[No Sense of Personal Space]]: Mainly towards Franky.

* [[Odd Couple]]: With Franky

* [[Pet the Dog]]: [[Odd Friendship|Her interactions with Alo in his episode.]]

* [[Rich Bitch]]: Not exactly rich, but she does throw pretty extravagant parties for someone her age.

** Actually, she and her mother live in a low-income neighborhood, so she is far from being actually rich. Nick tells Liv in Mini's Series 5 episode that he hasn't been to Mini's home even if they've been going out for over a month, so it's possible that Mini tries to maintain a [[Rich Bitch]] image.

* [[Fashionable Asymmetry]]

* [[Five-Finger Discount]]

* [[Informed Ability]]: All the stuff on her E4 profile picture about her being obsessed with dancing.

* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Has a [[Disappeared Dad]] and a distant mother who goes away on New Age retreats and leaves her in charge.

* [[Really Gets Around]]

* [[Ruptured Appendix]]: Liv spends her Series 6 episode thinking she has a lump on her uterus and is scared to have it medically looked at, {{spoiler|but she later finds out that [[You Imagined It|it was all in her head, and a psychological manifestation of her grief over Grace's death]]}}.

* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}: As it seems.

* {{spoiler|[[Kill the Cutie]]}}

* [[Longing for Fictionland]]

* [[Nice Guy|Nice Girl]]

* [[Opposites Attract]]: Grace mentions the trope by name, as it appears to be the case between her and Rich.

* [[Playing Cyrano]]: To {{spoiler|Rich}} in the second episode of Series 5.

* [[Preppy Name]]: Also a [[Names to Trust Immediately]].

* [[Princess Classic]]: She's not actually a princess, but this trope gets referenced and [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstructed]] with regard to her character.
