So Awkward
2015-2020

We've gathered here today to say goodbye to three socially awkward girls - Martha, Jas and Lily. They were the future of Cranmede High, and an inspiration to teen girls who were living the same lives as them. In 2015, girls all over the UK were in for a treat when the three stars of Cranmede came onto TV screens with their hilarious antics and views on school, boys and homework. It's like Our School meets the 4 O'Clock Club...except without the raps. I know, Lily announced there'll be a series named Still So Awkward on soon, but now let's remember our socially awkward friends. Martha had innocent puppydog eyes and a stuffed animal for every occasion, and you may identify her as the girl who still acts like a child, and encourages us to bring out our inner kid - except you can't act 4. Lily was into science and her knowledge of everything kept us on our feet, as she is well organized and always in control. Finally, Jas is the lazy one and loves to be a party animal! She loves her snacks and animal videos, especially ones about kittens and puppies (tell that to Henry!) and her easy-going, optimistic attitude lightened the series and our lives in times of darkness. Archie Lyndhurst died a few weeks ago, so it's probably best to honor Ollie as well - he and the other boys made the series possible, but we have Martha, Jas and Lily to thank. They may be gone, but our generation will still learn from them.
And you can! Remember them the best way you can by watching So Awkward, Our School and 4 O'Clock Club on iPlayer:
Jas, Martha, Lily...you bring girl power to CBBC like other female main stars of other CBBC shows, and still will. Keep that girl power in your hearts.
GIRL POWER!!!!! Yey!!!!
