SEX Education fans are thrilled after spotting a clue that Netflix has already finished filming series three.
Eagle-eyed fans of the hit show took to the Sex Education subreddit and shared a snap of a member of the show’s production team in front of the Moordale Secondary School lectern emblazoned with the school’s symbol.

The caption read: “And that’s a wrap!”, leaving fans hopeful it meant series three was in the can and heading to the streaming service soon, although Netflix is yet to confirm a release date.
Production on the show was delayed by the coronavirus pandemic – as was the case with the majority of shows – but last month, Samantha Spiro was seen flying off a balcony in a jaw-dropping stunt for the new series.
Meanwhile, Asa Butterfield – who plays central character Otis Milburn – previously revealed things will be shaken up for his alter ego in season three.
Asa explained that the time jump between seasons two and three means that viewers can expect some newfound confidence and maturity from him.
“There’s a bit of a time-jump since the season two cliffhanger – Otis is back at school but he’s got different things on his plate,” he told The Guardian.
“He’s grown up a bit and become slightly more sassy. It’s been fun to portray his newfound charisma.”
However, he assured fans that Otis was by no means transforming into a typical leading man and was still the inhibited nerd we know and love.
“Don’t worry, though, he’s still tragically awkward too!” he added.
Asa also addressed rumours that Otis would be rocking a dramatic new look in the form of a full moustache.
He was pictured on set rocking the new facial hair, but stressed that this wouldn’t be a long-term fixture for the character.
“We got snapped by paparazzi while filming and people have been freaking out about Otis having a moustache – I can exclusively reveal it’s not real,” he said.
“It’s a stunt ‘tache and thankfully it doesn’t last the whole season. I don’t think anyone could bear looking at that thing for long.”
Sex Education seasons 1 and 2 are available on Netflix.
