Stuck in a secret relationship, shy Charlie starts to crush
... More on Nick, the school's popular rugby star, and joins the team against his friends' advice.LessCharlie, a highly strung and openly gay teen, and Nick, a cheerful soft-hearted rugby player, form a friendship at a British all-boys grammar school—a friendship that could be something more—in this adaptation of Alice Oseman's bestselling graphic novel series.
What should be de rigueur is moving to see treated so casually here. If Heartstopper gives even one teenager the tools for exploring their sexual identity, then it’s worth celebrating.
This must-watch British coming-of-age series lives up to its title as well as its graphic-novel source material.

Full reviewA coming-of-age story notable above all for its sweetness... Heartstopper’s dulcet tone is addictive.
Full reviewHeartstopper tells a gentle story about teens falling for each other in a way that makes even the issues they’ll face in their friendship and relationship just part of growing up. And that’s quite a refreshing way to approach that kind of story.
Full reviewHeartstopper: Season 1 is available to stream in New Zealand now on Netflix.
