I love theatre (and spelling it the correct way), Boots pharmacies, the Mods, and Shakespeare. And with apologies to Gossip Girl and The Vampire Diaries, the U.K. truly has the best teen telly! But Americans are finally getting in on the action: This month Syfy has remade supernatural drama Being Human, and MTV is rebooting my absolute favorite series, Skins, the true-to-life, uberrisque Brit drama that edged Nicholas Hoult and Dev Patel toward stardom. I visited the set of the new Skins, and I can't wait to see how scandal scores across the pond. Even the nine virtually unknown leads--aged fifteen to nineteen--are excited. \"The night before the open casting call I watched the entire first season; I didn't sleep, and I fell in love immediately,\" says Britne Oldford, who plays Cadie. \"It's been an absolutely phenomenal experience.\"\n\nTV shows aren't the only successful imports. As Kristen Stewart knows, an English significant other is an absolute must-have in Hollywood, and the influx of young talent arriving in the States is, well, brilliant. It girls Carey Mulligan and Alexa Chung are well on their way to fashion icondom, and Brit boys Aaron Johnson and Tom Sturridge are more charming than any prince. And have you heard about Jane Eyre's Imogen Poots yet? Or Red Riding Hood's Max Irons ? You will soon enough.\n\nVideo extra!
