"jj" was filmed in november 2008 in the same production block as the series' eighth episode, "effy". ollie barbieri did some research to help him in playing jj, who has asperger syndrome. he said that, in initial episodes, he played jj as "quite mad and i jumped around a lot", though by this episode his portrayal was "watered down a bit". charles martin shot an unscripted scene that involved barbieri destroying the set of jj's bedroom; martin believed this would help barbieri to get into jj's mindset. barbieri was also able to learn more about his character by creating the collage in jj's room himself, in which jj has tried to organise his thoughts about his friends and his life. martin said that he and barbieri had a "very involved director-actor relationship" and that he enjoyed "jj" the most out of all the episodes he directed in the series. according to runner laurence wigfield, jj's clinic was described in the script as "a desolate shabby place, the kind of place you went to die", with the bracketed suggestion of fishponds studio, where the "skins" offices are. though wigfield initially "couldn't believe" this, the studio was used for filming the scene, which wigfield admitted "worked quite well". the scene in which jj and emily bond after meeting at the clinic was filmed in bristol's brandon hill park, near cabot tower.
