Laya Lewis has said that her Skins character Liv barely cares at all about Nick (Sean Teale).

Lewis told DS that Liv's other love interest Matty (Sebastian De Souza) is the complete opposite.

"She's always thought of Nick as a 'jock'," Lewis explained. "To her he's an idiot - he's not even worth her time! The only reason she sleeps with him is because she's trying to get through to Mini.

"Instead of going about it in the right way, she's like, 'I'll just have you over instead'. I think Nick doesn't even take up 10% of her brainspace."

Of Matty, she added: "He's the complete opposite of Nick in every way. At that point Liv's not interested in anything anymore and Matty really amuses her and is everything that her life is missing.

"She just falls for him. I'm not sure if it's love but it's definitely intense and that's what she really likes about it."
