Heartstopper? Completed it, mate...

 

...for now. Luke and Indigo hit the end of the Heartstopper journey until October 3rd hits. This week is a dive into the third of Alice Oseman's graphic novels and there's a lot to be said in comparison with the Netflix shows.

 

Do you agree with our views on the books? Get in on the conversation on Insta: @aheartstopperpodcast and on the Facebook group.

Two for (volume) two!

 

It's just Luke and Indigo this week, but that doesn't mean they don't have plenty to say about Volume 2 of Alice Oseman's beloved graphic novels.

This one may require an apology...

 

Against our better judgment, and all advice, we have decided to share with you some of the bits that we absolutely could not include in our discussions about series 2 of Heartstopper. Don't worry, there won't be any obscene or offensive language, but expect stumbles, fumbles, childish behaviour and A LOT of very heavy innuendo. We just hope that this doesn't alter your opinions of us and that you come back for more episodes of You're Not Allowed to Say the 'S' Word. Be warned, this is definitely a blooper collection for ages 15+.

 

If you feel the need to tell us off for our terrible behaviour, then you can do so on our Facebook group or on Insta: @aheartstopperpodcast

Join Luke, Ellie, Finn and Indigo for a full de-brief on Series two, discussing thoughts and feelings on the series as a whole. The crew will be be sharing their top music picks, heroes and villains of the series, reviewing their favourite moments and much more.

We are taking a look back at the amazing few months that we had rewatching series 2 of Heartstopper and have put together two bumper collections of our favourite bits. This week, we have chosen some of our favourite moments, be they funny, emotional or reflective, either from, about or inspired by episodes 5 - 8 of Heartstopper series 2. So, settle in and enjoy!

Thank you for your patience in waiting for this episode over the past weeks. We are very pleased to finally bring you this episode, but we begin this week by sharing some news with you all which will explain our absence. Just a few days after recording this upcoming episode, we very sadly lost our wonderful Sky.

We feel that the upcoming episode highlights all that Sky had to offer us and the world and so we, with the blessing of Sky's family, have chosen to share the episode with you as planned in celebration of, and tribute to, Sky.

We in the Yellow and Blue Crew have received some shocking and devastating news. We won't be sharing details at this point, and we are sorry to say that we will not release the planned episodes over the next few weeks, but we send you all love and hope to return in the new year when we will provide further explanation.

From us all, we wish you the very best at this time and we look forward to returning to you when the time is right.

Lessons have been learned.

 

TW: Talk of dark, intrusive and potentially suicidal thoughts in the first 15 minutes of this week's episode.

 

We are so sorry that today's episode was affected by an audio issue which means it sounds far from its best, but we hope you might still enjoy our discussions about the first half of the final episode of this series, where we touch on all manner of topics including: mental health struggles, queer safe spaces and Jennifer Coolidge.
