‘Heartstopper’ Season 3: Charlie and Nick’s First Time Having Sex Is the Show at Its Most Emotional and Tender
In 'Heartstopper' starring Joe Locke and Kit Conner, Charlie and Nick have sex for the first time in a vulnerable and emotional Season 3.
In Season 2 of “Heartstopper,” viewers watched the quiet and unsure Charlie Spring ( Joe Locke) and his new boyfriend, the self-assured and protective Nick Nelson ( Kit Connor), navigate their new relationship. In Season 3, in episodes revolving around mental wellness, sex and significant life changes, creator Alice Oseman — adapting her own graphic novels — focuses on the work relationships require, and what it means to thrive or perish as new feelings and expectations are unearthed. In depicting the fullness of sexual exploration (not just acts of penetration) but the talking, fun, sensuality, kissing, awkwardness and cuddling, “Hearstopper” removes the reactionary taboos surrounding teen sex and instead presents it how it should be: a pleasurable and thrilling human experience.
