That Naomi Campbell is a closed book. She has an answer for everything, and it's always wittier and cleverer than anything we could have come up with; except with hindsight, but that doesn't count.
Episode 6 - Naomi's episode, is almost upon us, and this time she can't disappear from the party early. Nah, we're with her for the full hour. We get to meet her mother, and see her at home in her rather unconventional family life. Though saying that, whose family life is conventional?!
What we're most looking forward to is the fact that we get to see Naomi cry. Stick with us, that may sound harsh – but we actually get to understand her; and discover what makes her tick. The character of Naomi is a complex one (which, in real life we all are). She’s got everything worked out, and judges those books by their covers. She even knows who she is, and who she likes. Or does she? Naomi will face those she thought she had worked out on Thursday's episode, and she’ll be forced to re-evaluate those strong opinions of hers. But more importantly, she’ll have to confront herself and accept who she is. But to do that, she’ll have to do the bravest thing of all - be honest with herself.
We can't wait for Naomi's episode, because there's something real and ultimately endearing about her; and let's be honest, she hasn't taken up nearly enough of our screen time. The Emily/Naomi dynamic has been bubbling along nicely, and now there's an opportunity for some sort of resolution. Although we're sure there will be no happily ever after, whatever Naomi decides. Life (and Skins) is never that simple.
What are you hoping you'll see? One thing's for sure, we'll want to discuss straight away with you on Friday. We know by the comments that most of you are rooting for Emily and Naomi. Let's see if it pans out how you would expect.
