Sex Education, you’re going to want to hear this one.

Fans of the hit Netflix series Sex Education are in for a treat, the new season is on its way sooner than we thought.

The gang are back and better than ever with season three making it’s way to Netflix on September 17th.

With eight brand new episodes coming to the streaming service, and a lot has changed since we last saw Otis, Eric and Maeve.

And according to the new plot description, a LOT is about to go down over at Moordale.

It reads: “It’s a new year, Otis is having casual sex, Eric and Adam are official, and Jean has a baby on the way. Meanwhile, new headteacher Hope (played by Jemima Kirke) tries to return Moordale to a pillar of excellence, Aimee discovers feminism, Jackson gets a crush and a lost voicemail still looms.”

It’s also going to be full of new cast members, including Jason Isaacs who is set to play Peter Groff, Mr. Groff’s very successful and not as humble brother.

Singer and songwriter Dua Saleh is making their acting debut playing Cal, a non-binary student at the school, while Indra Ové is set to play Elsie’s foster mum Anna.

The new plot is yet to be confirmed, but after the second season, we saw Otis and Maeve in a pretty bad place.

Sex Education has been a huge success for Netflix, with the first season of the show reportedly having over 40 million streams within the first month of release.
