Yep, Sex Education season 4 drops on to Netflix on Thursday September 21 – with Asa Butterfield, Emma Mackey, Ncuti Gatwa, Aimee-Lou Woodand Gillian Anderson all returning – and Schitt's Creek star Dan Levy among the cast newcomers. We've already had a taste of what to expect, with a trailer showing loved-up Otis trying desperately to find a good position to take a nude photo, in a bid to impress Maeve (Mackey) during an exchange of texts. Business as usual, from the looks of it – but will this be the final season of the show or can we expect a series five to follow? Here's what you need to know… Is Sex Education ending with season 4?
