It’s a double celebration for Pixels today as the release of the latest clip sees the series marking its tenth episode, which also coincides with the final stop of their countrywide YouTour competition series.

“Luke McManus triumphed in a very close contest winning his place on the Gran Canaria trip next week while Camilla Mullins put all the other girl skaters in the country to shame by turning up and ripping with the boys. Camilla more than earned her place on the Gran Canaria trip by skating good and not being put off by a bit of snow on the roads!”
