New year, new drama… and new sex lives. Sex Education returns for season 3 on Netflix.

Check out the return of all your favorite characters below.

The trailer for season 3 opens with a goat in Aimee’s car, and believe it or not, things only get better from there. 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. Prepare for commitment animals, alien phenomena, vulva cupcakes and much more of Madam Groff.

In addition to Kirke, season 3 of Sex Education includes several other new cast members. Fans will see Jason Isaacs as Peter Groff, Mr Groff’s more successful and not very modest older brother; recording artist and songwriter, Dua Saleh, who joins in their acting debut, playing Cal, a nonbinary student at Moordale; and Indra Ové who plays Elsie’s foster mum Anna.

Returning cast members include: Asa Butterfield, Gillian Anderson, Emma Mackey, Ncuti Gatwa, Connor Swindells, Aimee-Lou Wood, Kedar Williams-Stirling, Chaneil Kular, Simone Ashley, Mimi Keene, Tanya Reynolds, Mikael Persbrandt, Patricia Allison, Sami Outalbali, Anne-Marie Duff, George Robinson, Chinenye Ezeudu, Alistair Petrie, Samantha Spiro, Rakhee Thakrar, and Jim Howick.
