If you can’t get enough of Otis and his friends, you’ll be thrilled to hear that the British comedy-drama will be coming back for a third season.

Netflix announced via a video featuring headmaster and Adam’s father Michael Grodd (Alistair Petrie) that Sex Education will be returning in 2021!

In the second season, which was released in January, Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield) had to learn to fight his sexual urgers while dealing with a new relationship with Ola (Patricia Allison) and his strained friendship with Maeve (Emma Mackey). Also, there was a huge Chlamydia outbreak at Moordale Secondary.

Gillian Anderson (Otis’s mom) and her love interest Jakob (Mikael Persbrandt) also starred in the second season.

The series was written and created by Laurie Nunn and directed by Ben Taylor, Alice Seabright, and Sophie Goodhart. Jamie Campbell, Laurie Nunn, and Ben Taylor are executive producers.

Season two of Netflix’s Sex Education is charmingly awkward, brilliantly funny, and completely and utterly binge-worthy. It’s also one of the most inclusive shows available for streaming.

The concept of Sex Education is simple. Sex is everywhere. Everybody thinks about it, everybody is curious about it, and when you’re a teenager entering the big wide world of sex for the first time, sex can be bloody terrifying. The show deals with all of these things alongside the awkward way dating and sex are navigated. It’s a show not just about what are bodies do and how we can use them, but how to respect our bodies and other people’s. If your sex education at school consisted of seeing a diagram of the female and male anatomy, you could probably do with brushing up your sex knowledge through this quirky, ruthless show.

What really stands out about season two, however, is its approach to inclusivity. The show addresses more underrepresented sexual orientation like bisexuality and pansexuality. It also sensitively delves into the concept of asexulaity. When Jean Milburn is made the official sex therapist at Moordale, he is approached by students who are worried that they are not attracted to anyone. “I think I might be broken,” Florence confesses. In an age where everything seems to be about sex, it is refreshing to see sexuality approached from a new angle, dismantling preconceptions.

What’s more, the show addresses issues that most of us have not even thought about before. Season two explores what it can be like dating as a disabled person and it does not shy away from the issues of consent. In one powerful scene, Aimee encounters a man on the bus who sexually harrasses her. She laughs it off but in the end but in the end, she is left traumatized by the encounter. Scenes like this are a reminder of the complexity of the #metoo movement. It’s a testament to the writers’ fresh and sensitive take on modern issues that all of us are affected by.

Overall, season two of Sex Education is not just brilliant, it’s deeply important. It accurately portrays the complexities of queerness and sexuality in a way that helps the audience look at the issues in new ways. It’s funny, charming, and we recommend it to anyone who ever felt let down by their sex education in school.

5/5

Gillian Anderson initially thought that a series about a professional sex therapist whose own teenage son sets up a clinic to give his fellow students sex advice was “too on the nose.”

The former X-Files star told Entertainment Weekly that she almost passed on playing professional sex therapist Jean Milburn on the critically acclaimed British comedy-drama Sex Education. 

That’s right — the first thing she did after reading the script for the pilot was to throw it in the trash. “I read a teeny bit of the first episode and threw it in the bin.”

But thanks to Anderson’s real-life partner, creator of The Crown, Peter Morgan, all that changed. “Pete essentially took it out the bin and read it and loved it, and said, ‘You’re mad. This will be really good for you to do.’ I read it and I thought it was hilarious.” 

We couldn’t imagine anyone else as no-boundaries Dr. Jean Milburn!

Season 2 of Sex Education is now streaming on Netflix.

Sex Education director explains why the show has an American feel to it.

The Netflix hit is set in the English countryside but many fans have expressed confusion over the American aesthetic of the series. The characters don’t wear school uniform and there’s definitely an element of John Hughs’ influence present.

Speaking to Digital Spy, Taylor explained: “I just wanted to frame a British school experience in a slightly different way. I think it felt interesting, not only visually, but I think it does something to the story and the setting and the characters that it is a heightened world, it’s a heightened script.

“It’s slightly idealised in terms of its intelligence and its forward-thinking and its positivity. And I think if you were to render… say if you did an Ackley Bridge, which is a good-looking show. It very much is contemporary and everything about it is totally the year that it was made.

He added: “If you were to do that, I don’t think our characters would have lived comfortably in that. I don’t think we are a straight show, and I don’t think the story of Otis at its center would be believable if you were having this harder-nosed, grey rendering of what it’s like to go to school in the UK in 2019.”

If you haven’t watched the show yet then you can watch it on Netflix now. Seriously, get on the hype.
