Jal Fazer

Jal has the brains and talent. Her clarinet skills rank among the best in the country. Of course it doesn't help that her wannabe hip-hop artist brothers carry on with their comically bad music while she tries to practice. She manages to flower though, even while at odds with her overbearing father and distant mother.

She gives her best friend, Michelle, a shoulder to lean on when it comes to Tony. But Jal soon discovers that she doesn't always have the answers when it comes to her own budding relationship.

Another cast member who is a native of Bristol, Larissa attended the John Cabot Academy - which is where the fictional Roundview College scenes are shot for the series.

These days...

Since Skins, Larissa starred in the teen horror film, Tormented, which reunited her with former co-star April Pearson.
