Sex Education season 4 trailer teases emotional climax: "Tissues ready"
Otis and Maeve reunite in the anarchic new footage.
Netflix has dropped the Sex Education season 4 trailer, which offers a glimpse into the chaotic final semester for the heartwarming comedy-drama.
The season 3 ending saw Moordale Secondary shut down after its students enacted a jaw-dropping rebellion against their oppressive head teacher Hope Haddon (Jemima Kirke).
As a result, the final episodes see Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield), Eric Effiong (Ncuti Gatwa) and several other familiar faces enrol in the forward-thinking Cavendish Sixth Form College, which is quite a change of pace.
Far from the conservative regime of Haddon and her predecessor Michael Groff (Alistair Petrie), this is an institution which encourages open dialogue and for students to express themselves however they see fit.
But from Otis's perspective, there's one big problem – they already have a student therapist on campus, played by none other than Doctor Who's Thaddea Graham. Check out the Sex Education season 4 trailer now to find out what's in store:
Viewers are excited to see how Maeve Wiley (Emma Mackey) evolves in season 4, after the aspiring writer landed a US-based scholarship in season 3 that saw her part ways with love interest Otis.
The trailer opens with the two of them attempting some long-distance intimacy by sending nude photos, although Otis has some trouble deciding on his most flattering angle.
The teaser cheekily warns "get your tissues ready", alluding to an emotional end for a series that has never been afraid to tackle serious issues between its more light-hearted bedroom mishaps.
