Jason Isaacs as we all know as Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter series, or more recently from the OA, is set to play Mr Groff’s older and more successful brother, Peter Groff in the third season.
Following his separation from Mrs Groff, we’re going to see Mr Groff crash at his brother’s home and thus, he will be brought into the show.
Production for season three commenced in Wales again last month, with the new actors joining forces with the rest of the cast including Emma Mackey (Maeve Wiley), Asa Butterfield (Otis Milburn) and Ncuti Gatwa (Eric Effiong) to name a few.

And although the cast are all back filming together, we’re going to have to wait until 2021 until we get 8 new episodes of Sex Education *sobs*.
Like many shows, the Coronavirus pandemic has postponed a lot of filming and so, we’ve a bit longer to wait until we see all our fave characters back on screen.
On the plus side, we’ve got You coming in 2021 too, soooooo, if we look at it glass half full, we’ve got plenty to look forward to next year!
