Based on the beloved graphic novel and webcomic of the same name, the new batch of episodes will follow Charlie Spring (Locke) and Nick Nelson (Kit Connor) as they “navigate their new relationship.” The synopsis adds: “Tara and Darcy face unforeseen challenges, and Tao and Elle work out if they can ever be more than just friends.
With exams on the horizon, a school trip to Paris and a prom to plan, the gang has a lot to juggle as they journey through the next stages of life, love and friendship.” Ahead of its highly anticipated premiere, Locke spilt the tea on all things Heartstopper season two in an interview with TV Insider, including his favourite storyline. “The Tao and Elle story this season, I think, is my favourite in any story of the season.
