A second coming
When the first season of the runaway hit Sex Education dropped last year, it turned out to be more than a pleasant watch. The writing was a clear winner in this tale of teenage sexuality told simply with some humour and a lot of spunk. The second season of what we were hoping was a limited series is here and isn’t missing any of the spunk. It pushes the envelope to talk about female orgasms, sexual assault with ease and features great performances.
