What will Sex Education season 3 be about?

If you haven’t been able to stop thinking about season 2’s cliffhanger ending (don’t worry, us too), then you can look forward to finally getting an explanation on what comes next for main character Otis. 

After he left a voicemail for Maeve where he finally confessed his feelings, Isaac deleted it behind her back—so will she ever know? We can expect season 3 to determine that one for us. 

The new season will also see a Hollywood maven join the beloved cast—Girls actress Jemima Kirke plays Moordale’s new headmistress, Hope. 

Who is in the cast of Sex Education season 3?
