Sex Education is coming back for another season!

Netflix confirmed on Friday (February 1) that the UK dramedy will return to the streaming service for a second season consisting of eight episodes.

The entire cast, including Gillian Anderson and Asa Butterfield, will return to reprise their roles in the series.

“Laurie Nunn has captured the awkward teenage experience with a lot of heart and humor in Sex Education. Along with the Eleven team and executive producer and director Ben Taylor, she’s created a universally relatable series that has resonated with our members around the world,” said Netflix exec Cindy Holland.

The show’s second season will begin production in spring.
