Added 2023-09-03 18:52:45 +0000 UTC***folks, so sorry about the delay! no idea what happened with the upload!***
Goooood evening beautiful people,
It's time to do it. It's time to get stuck in to Episode 8 aka the season finale of Heartstopper Season 2. I can't believe this time has come around so quick.
I have been so deeply affected by this season in this most wonderful way - just when I thought I couldn't love those show any more they go and drop the perfect second season.
Grab those tissues, folks... we're all going to need them!!!
See you all in the comments,
Love, always ♥️

Don’t you just love when Nick sees Charlie in his tux for the first time that the globe on Charlie’s dresser lights up. 🥹

2024-11-20 02:20:37 +0000 UTCI learned just today that after Nick comes out on Insta and goes to Charlie’s and they have that massive hug? They’re both wearing stripes in the color of each others’ pride flag. 🤯🥺 Nick is in green and white stripes for MFM and Charlie’s sweater is blue, pink, and purple for the Bi flag. ‼️ These details in how they play with color absolutely destroy me.

2024-02-27 03:56:41 +0000 UTCThey replied to my email! But I don’t know if they‘ll actually do anything… vielen Dank für Ihre Nachricht, die wir zur Kenntnis genommen und mit dem Team geteilt haben. Viele Grüße und ein schönes Wochenende, Sabrina Schnell Production Manager Lip Sync

2023-12-01 17:02:38 +0000 UTCGood Morning Frances, I haven‘t heard back from them either. But maybe they got so many mails concerning this that it takes time 😉 My last message to you is at the very top because I forgot to hit „reply“ and just wrote a normal message 😅
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-23 06:08:10 +0000 UTCHey Wiebke, hope you’re doing well. So I wrote the company but I haven’t heard from them ever since. And tbh, I was kinda expecting from them not to answer me. Even though in found my mail to them very well written. Did you have any luck?
Frances
2023-11-23 05:10:16 +0000 UTCIt worked 🥳 Now we just have to wait for their reply… It feels good to have a partner in crime 🤗
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-17 16:34:13 +0000 UTCThanks 😅 I‘ll try again!
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-17 16:29:46 +0000 UTCSame. Im so sorry 🙈 my mistake! It’s: info@tv-synchron.de
Frances
2023-11-17 05:31:48 +0000 UTCI just wrote an email but it didn’t work the message couldn’t be delivered 😕
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-16 22:53:54 +0000 UTCThank you so much for researching this! I will contact them and keep you updated 😉
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-16 22:29:34 +0000 UTCI actually just found out which company did the translation and dubbing. You can see it at the very last episode in the credits. They’re email address is: info@synchron.de Maybe we both should write them and hope for the best 🤞🏾
Frances
2023-11-16 19:41:27 +0000 UTCHi Wiebke! You’re literally speaking my mind!!! That bothered me so much as well. Even though I always watch the original cause I’m bilingual anyways…but i know a few people who watch this on German. And one actually told me that she didn’t like what Nick was saying to Charlie in that last scene and I had to explain to her that the translation is wrong. I think you could try and contact the German production „Media Paten“. I believe that’s where they recorded the German dubbing. I’m gonna try and write Alice via Instagram but I’m not sure if she’s gonna read it tbh…
Frances
2023-11-16 19:34:30 +0000 UTCI don‘t have any social media. Would you do that?
Wiebke Kempa
2023-11-05 11:08:12 +0000 UTCI actually don't know who you would be able to contact but it migth be worth reaching out to Alice via twitter to let her know?

2023-11-05 11:07:11 +0000 UTCI‘ve watched season 2 about 8 times in english and also read an Interview with Alice Oseman somewhere where she explained how important it is to her, that Heartstopper is also educational and shows (espacially young) people how to deal with these difficult situations and how to talk to each other. The way Nick speaks to Charlie in the final scene is wonderfull and exactly right. He is there for Charlie without putting any pressure on him. But last weekend I watched Heartstopper in german with my Mum and I was so shocked because of the awful translation that I had to pause and explain to my Mum why I was so upset. When Nick cries on Charlies shoulder he originally says „Do you still do that now?“. The german translation says „Bitte mach das nicht mehr.“ which means „Please don‘t do that anymore.“ This so wrong! I was in Charlies situation and knowing that Netflix messed this up so badly really kept me up for some nights because I wanted to fix this. Does anyone here know if you can contact Netflix and tell them about this mistake? This really bothers me…

2023-11-02 12:02:16 +0000 UTCThis series is just thoroughly amazing and I was crazy emotional through it all. That last episode had me in tears many times over, and I'm glad so many get representation done right. I appreciate that you've done all these reactions and shared a bit of your heart with us as well. <3
Meladrix
2023-10-14 05:48:54 +0000 UTCJackie, I agree with you about LOTR. However, i also agree about HS. I have not cried so much as I have alongside you for S2 finale. Thank you. These are again Emmy performances.

2023-09-29 18:16:17 +0000 UTCHi! I just wanted to thank you Jackie for your reaction videos! When I watched this series I cried my eyes out in almost every episode in both seasons. I went into the series first and books after and had no idea what I was getting into. It kinda broke me so I could heal again. I came out as bisexual 13 years ago when I was 20 and literally everyone, though mostly accepting me told me I was just gay. It went so long that I started to accept the labels everyone gave me, and seeing Nicks story made me experience all that again. I’m now brave enough to start stand up for myself again which is both very relieving but also very stressful to go through. I’m a little bit like Charlie in that way that when I’m stressed out or depressed I tend to think that the world is better of without me, which means I shut myself out from friends and think that no one cares anyways if I’m not around. I think it is also due to me being introverted in some respects and afraid to reach out and put myself in “unsafe” situations. I rewatched Heartstopper like 10 times and thought I couldn’t cry watching it anymore. But watching your reactions and your hearing your thought and feelings about it all made me tear up again. You put words on things I didn’t realise I’ve wanted to hear for a very long time! Thank you for everything you’re doing for our community! You’re actually the first Patreon I’m subscribing to and what made me even make an account in the first place. I wish you all the best and will continue supporting your Patreon whenever I can ❤️ Sorry if this post was a little long. I just wanted to share with you that your content has helped me with my coping strategies. x

2023-09-18 22:00:35 +0000 UTCI am so happy for everything that happened in Season 2, and genuinely wish that the world worked this way. I cannot imagine my life if I had this group of friends and support. Unfortunately, we do not live or love in that world and it seems more elusive. This series gives me hope of what is possible. Thanks, Jackie!!
Brian Gillespie
2023-09-16 03:34:07 +0000 UTCWith Season 2 over I want to recall some of the worries I had before it was released. For one, the Sophomore Slump is real. Think of all the recording artists who explode on the scene with a brilliant, genius first album only to have the greatly anticipated second album be more of a wet firecracker than a supernova. It could have happened here, but it didn’t. Also, when making Season 1 nobody, cast or company, knew what a global sensation it was going to be. Making Season2, they did know, and that worried me too. That could have led to arrogance, or laziness. “Stars don’t have to work hard!” No, they have to work harder, and everyone seems to have understood that. Making what everybody knew was going to be a hit seems to have given them confidence, but not over-confidence. In both of those cases I was worrying too much by not having enough faith in the ability and integrity of the entire production. The actors, the director, the production company, and most of all Alice. I have never heard of a writer being so closely involved with the screen adaptation of their work, and holy cow but has it ever succeeded. [And has any writer ever gotten so quickly to be on a first-name basis with millions of their devoted readers?] And now we must settle in for a long, cold winter as we wait for the next installment. But this time I don’t think I’ll worry so much.

2023-09-10 14:52:27 +0000 UTCthis season was so powerful and so emotional i cryed in nearly every episodes its was so beautiful to watch and the cast and the writers and everyone who was in this and music its was perfect and u can feel the connection and feel there pain as well its perfect and i love it u can see how much he love char and care for him and i love it and i do agree with u nick is boyfriend that char need in his life that will stand up for him and just be there for him its was so beautiful to see this and kit and joe who played {nick & char} need to get warded for this its so beautiful scene .
lisa mcarthur
2023-09-10 03:21:12 +0000 UTCthanks for your reactions to season 2! your vulnerability and commentary is extremely important and i've gotten so much out of not just the show, but your input as well this season. i really love the development of tao and nick's friendship this season. i believe we heard about his dad dying first in possibly episode 6 of this season... when his mum was sitting on his bed telling him to fight for elle. i also think tao's mum was fantastic this season with the small chats she had. really loved her positivity. i don't think there's anyone who had a dry eye during the last conversation between nick and charlie of this season. if they did, they're extremely strong-willed! thanks once again!

2023-09-06 16:11:55 +0000 UTCYou can see stubble in a few scenes during the season lol.
Laurie Barber
2023-09-05 15:28:26 +0000 UTCLaurie - it's interesting that you mentioned that the boys are getting older as I've just seen a photo of Joe on holiday in Sicily with him showing facial hair and not just on the chin. It just makes him all the more attractive really, but it'll mean that the 'Heartstopper' make-up department will have their work cut out to try and make them look just 17 and 18 years old when it comes to filming season 3 next year!
Michael
2023-09-05 15:24:43 +0000 UTCi just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for this lovely series of videos because they really just mean so much to me!! while I am lucky to have several lovely queer and supportive friends, i don't know anyone else in my real life that watched this or seemed super interested (plus university started so i sadly didnt have time to sit down and make them watch it with me before they left bc i Would've lmao) and seeing how genuinely excited u got about it and just being real about how deeply this show affected you really made me feel like i was watching it along with a friend. and not only that but a friend that didnt make me wonder for a Second that i was too invested or going overboard or being "cringe" and that was just!! really important to me!! so thank you!!! also it really just meant a lot to me how much you really cared about isaacs story (especially since it's been a bit frustrating to see how literally no one seems to mention that hes also?? aromantic??? but anyway) and uh ill be real, i think these videos were kinda the last straw in making me realize that i think im demisexual or at least on the asexual spectrum (after thinking about it for like. 2 years) so thank you for helping me finally make that click, genuinely. this show is so so important and what you're doing is so important as well so just thank you for being you and creating this wonderful content <3 !

2023-09-05 06:13:43 +0000 UTCThis season threaded the heavier topics through everything, and even the buoyant moments for some characters were shadowed by hardship for other characters (like when Tao and Elle kissing at the Louvre was sandwiched between the scene of Charlie fainting and the scene with Charlie coming to). Given how deep season 3 is going to get, based on what we know from volume 4, I am hoping that there will be interspersed some moments of lightness and joy that stand by themselves and aren't shrouded with anxiety and dread. We're really going to need that balance to make it through.
Kt B
2023-09-05 03:07:14 +0000 UTCJay, of course you belong. There's no question. If the queer experience resonates with you, you don't need to produce a label to belong; we're a community, and you're a part of that. That's what I've learned from the Heartstopper fandom, and that's part of what's so healing about it - everyone is welcome.
Kt B
2023-09-05 02:59:07 +0000 UTCAnother parallel I love - Near the end of S1E8, Nick is jubilantly calling out, “You’re my boyfriend! I’m your boyfriend! We’re boyfriends!” Near the end of S2E8, Nick whispers to Charlie “You’re my boyfriend.” The first one marks the beginning of their journey of discovery about what that means. The second shows that Nick has truly learned what it means.
Kt B
2023-09-04 21:08:05 +0000 UTCThank you so much for sharing your reactions to this beautiful series. I’m curious as we go forward with Heartstopper, since the actors are getting older, if Alice might start inserting scenes from This Winter as well as Nick and Charlie into the upcoming seasons. Obviously she isn’t finished writing their stories but I’ve seen in interviews that she knows exactly how their story will end. I can’t wait to see what happens next in their journey and look forward to your reactions. ❤️
Laurie Barber
2023-09-04 17:55:17 +0000 UTCCharlie is so brave. In Nick's bedroom he told things I am quite sure he swore to himself he would never, ever tell. But if there's anyone in the world he can tell, it's Nick.
Steve Teeter
2023-09-04 15:51:15 +0000 UTCI thought this too! I first thought "okay, more bisexuals" but upon more thought, I think it would be far more interesting for Imogen to be someone who "just likes the person for the person" and pan makes sense in that regard. I also think Kizzy and Alice might have been laying ground work for Darcy to maybe become NB in s3.
Michael D
2023-09-04 13:01:57 +0000 UTCAdd two more details: 1- the final song when Charlie walks home from Nick's is "Ur so pretty" by wasia project. which is Will Gao and his sister's music group. She sings and he is on the keys 2 - Taylor Swift got advanced viewing of the finale and suggested they use Seven in that scene. Which in turn resulted in her team giving them the song to use.
Michael D
2023-09-04 12:56:52 +0000 UTCSomething I love about the series in general is that each of the 3 couples has their own animations, Charlie and Nick have the leaves, Elle and Tao have butterflies and Tara and Darcy have like shimmery dots (which in S1 E3 drove me crazy initially because it made them look like they had sparkles all over their clothes while dancing and kissing, but not when Tara is talking to Nick)
Erin
2023-09-04 11:24:36 +0000 UTCYes, KJ on Discord (not sure who they are over here) pointed that out in a convo we were having and I made sure to look for it, it made that scene even better!
Erin
2023-09-04 11:10:31 +0000 UTCOh I did see the tiptoes. That was a favorite part of season 1 for me and I love that it was included in this episode as well.
Diane Furlong
2023-09-04 09:59:50 +0000 UTCI’m deliberately writing this before reading the comments so forgive any repetition or duplication. Like you, because I was crying, I missed Charlie standing on tip-toes in the doorway kiss just at the end and only saw that lovely detail on the second watch. I love the beautiful parallels and subtle echoes, not just in this episode, but throughout the series. A few other things that really caught me off guard: the conversation between Tara and Darcy’s mother not being even more horrific than it was because Tara, unlike her own daughter, doesn’t ‘look like a lesbian’ as she’s standing there in the driveway in her ‘feminine’ prom dress; one can only imagine how it would have gone otherwise and how Tara must be feeling hearing that; Nick’s smile for Charlie as he leaves to go home disappearing as he shuts the door telling us that he’s already feeling a sense of the long, difficult road ahead for Charlie. That final conversation between Nick and Charlie in the bedroom apparently took 7 hours to film, because it’s such an emotionally demanding scene and such a delicate balance between showing their emotions and going in too strong. My feelings about season 2 are still processing but I really think it’s even better than season 1, wonderful though that was. Thanks for all your heartfelt reactions. Season 3 is really going to test us, but I’m definitely here for it. ❤️x

2023-09-04 08:23:25 +0000 UTCThat scene with Imogen and Sahar makes me think they will explore Pansexuality.

2023-09-04 08:19:04 +0000 UTCYour reactions are amazing and so moving. I have already watched the full season multiple times, but watching it again with you always shows me more of the depth of this storyline and these characters. Thank you for always being so vulnerable and real in your reactions. It means a lot!
Colleen
2023-09-04 01:29:39 +0000 UTCThe ending was such a beautiful scene both in terms of how Joe portrayed the horror of what Charlie has experienced and how he feels but also the absolute love Nick shows. He does what every person with mental health issues wants the people in their lives to do when they are struggling… he just listens and comforts, he doesn’t try to fix him, he’s just there. I wish we all had that type of support in our lives ❤️ This show and the books have this way of making me feel both sad for all the younger versions of ourselves who didn’t have this support but also so hopeful for all the possibilities that people in the future won’t have to know what it feels like to not have it.
Jessica Thomas
2023-09-04 01:25:07 +0000 UTCBeautiful reaction. I loved going on this journey with you. This show is so special to so many people. I think that’s what sets it apart from all others - Love, Victor, Young Royals, etc. Heartstopper is literally saving people’s lives and I’m so happy we get to witness it in real time.

2023-09-03 23:34:51 +0000 UTCI just have so much to say about this reaction and about the whole season that it's making the notepad on my phone burst. I'm going to gather my thoughts and my words and share them on Discord, I think, when work and life allow, but all I wanted to say here is thank you for being you, JRL, and for allowing yourself to be vulnerable not only to your patrons but to the world at large. You are wonderful.
Dave K.
2023-09-03 23:34:38 +0000 UTCThere's nothing to add to all the wonderful comments that have been posted on here with respect to this stupendous and very important show .... apart from me wishing that I had bought shares in the companies that manufacture tissues BEFORE 'Heartstopper' was released to the world. If I had done that, I'd be a very rich person by now!

Prinsassy
2023-09-03 21:16:43 +0000 UTCMy favorite Nick/Charlie kiss, and in this season there were many, was the one Nick gave to Charlie's forehead after Charlie promised to tell him if things ever got bad enough that he thought about self harm. It was the most pure, the most tender, and the most loving. It was like Nick was cradling Charlie's head in his hands and trying to help sooth and comfort Charlie's cruelly wounded mind with a healing kiss. Beautifully acted.
Daniel Rotello
2023-09-03 21:11:43 +0000 UTCI've seen the last episode a few times now, but that last scene between Kit and Joe still really gets to me every time 😢 liked your raw reaction. Thank you for sharing X
Marcia
2023-09-03 21:06:24 +0000 UTCThat feel when on first watch you can't even properly appreciate the level of acting Kit and Joe are doing with their faces in that final scene because you can't see the screen through your tears. SUCH a good season! T_T
James Sinn
2023-09-03 21:06:11 +0000 UTCByThat episode is a journey alright! I do feel like a lot of people are talking about Kit's acting in that final scene in Nick's room, and he is fantastic but I want to take a minute to appreciate Joe's... the quiet vulnerability he has whilst doing it blows my mind, especially given HS is his first proper acting work. On a happier note, a couple of "attentions to details" that I love from this episode and my fave from the season! 1) The song in the prom scene at Nick's house is Seven, and there's seven friends :) 2) Baby Queen is the performer at the school prom and she has most of the songs on the sound track, including writing Colours of You (the song playing when Nick makes his IG post) 3) and this might be my fave. When Nick and Charlie see each other in their prom outfits in Charlie's room, there is a moment when the camera is on Charlie, there's a set of draws with a globe on top that is switched off. When Nick uncovers his eyes and the camera cuts to Charlie again, the globe lights up, like... like a visual representation that Charlie lights up Nick's world and I am in love with this shot! One of my fave things in the whole series in the use of colour, we get a lot of blue and yellow in s1 and a lot of it still remains in s2, but, both Nick and Charlie start to wear a lot more green this season and sometimes, their lighting is more green, Nick's walls in his room gradually fade to a more green-blue over the season and Charlie's walls too and the blue in the schools has gone to a more ocean green pretty much from the first scene when Nick comes up behind Charlie in the opening of the form room doorway. Also, something else I saw that got me, but is from Episode 7, that when the rainbow ocean wave laps at Ben's feet, outside Lambert and he turns away, is a direct parallel to Nick running into the ocean to declare him and Charlie boyfriends at the end of s1. Heartstopper needs to stop STOPPING MY HEART!

2023-09-03 21:02:12 +0000 UTCAhhhh I enjoyed this so much! Also, now I kind of want to see you react to the Lord of the Rings movies, ngl

2023-09-03 20:54:14 +0000 UTCJackie, oh my Goodness! I’m sending another Huge Hug to You from Me here in NY! I feel much the same as Frances commented earlier. The episode is emotional but seeing your heartfelt response is absolutely heart wrenching! I’m so glad that you didn’t interrupt the final scene and respected the importance of it. Thanks as always for all that you do!!
Diane Furlong
2023-09-03 20:48:58 +0000 UTCI'm so glad S3 got greenlit at the same time as S2. As beautiful as it would have been to end on the Taylor Swift montage, wrapping up everything nicely, having S3 in the bag gave them the confidence to hit us with *that* at the end

Daniel Rotello
2023-09-03 20:35:31 +0000 UTCWe really couldn’t have asked for a better final episode, just as we couldn’t have asked for a better second season. One of my favorite scenes in this episode is the one between Nick and Tao showing the way they have grown into a friendship that would’ve seemed impossible throughout most of season one. Tao and Elle’s storyline is one of the happiest in the way it turned out, which is lovely to see. The resolution of the Tara and Darcy story in this season is beautifully done. And of course, that final scene between Nick and Charlie (and I’ve said this in almost comments about this episode) is the best written, directed, and acted scene of this entire series so far. At times it’s difficult to watch because it’s so heart wrenching, but the performances of Joe and Kit are simply remarkable, not just for actors their ages, but actors at any age. I took away from this season the same thing you said during this video, that I will never again doubt any choice that Alice makes in writing this series. Any concern I might’ve had about where it was going dissipated, quickly, and I have full faith in anything she does with this series from here on. And one extra comment to end with: I have never related to Charlie more than when he said, “Can we leave?” at the prom. That’s the way I feel about pretty much every party I go to.
Lane Wright
2023-09-03 20:32:58 +0000 UTCAlso another big thank you Jackie for feeling save enough with us as a community to show so much vulnerability! We don’t take it for granted ♥️
Frances
2023-09-03 20:29:34 +0000 UTCI get teary every time I watch this episode, but your visceral reactions had me sobbing. As a parent, I love that I can watch HS with my older sons (9 and 13 years), to normalise queer visibility from an early age. They might be queer, their friends might be - our immediate and extended family certainly have LGBTQIA+ members, so being able to discuss the issues, and celebrate these stories is so, so important. We as parents can break the cycles of homophobia, intolerance and closed-mindedness that we grew up with. We owe it to our children to do better and to be better. I am so grateful to Alice for helping me share these queer stories with my children, but also for the representation that helped me learn more about myself, and ultimately helping me finally understand that I’m on the asexuality spectrum. As you say, her stories (both in her books and in this TV adaptation) have been in equal parts healing and freeing. It shows what a massive impact one person can have.
Sam S
2023-09-03 20:28:04 +0000 UTCI’ve also said this is, hands-down, one of the best book-to-screen adaptations ever (though I’m with you on LOTR lol!). Having Alice deconstruct the comics and rebuild them back together into something new is truly a work of art. Every single thing in this show had a purpose and a meaning, and that makes it so beautiful to rewatch because you discover something new each time and find yourself falling head over heels for the show all over again. Can we just take a moment to appreciate Nick Nelson for being THE most emotionally intelligent human? The way he is able to be so present and so aware of how each of his friends are feeling is truly remarkable. He continued to check in with Charlie to see if being the center of attention at prom was what he really wanted; he noticed something was amiss when Darcy didn’t meet the gang outside the school; he saw Tara looking around distressed and immediately went to check in with her and support her; and he handled that final convo with Charlie so so beautifully, being both vulnerable with his concerns but respectful of Charlie’s perspective of not wanting to be something to fix. Everyone deserves a Nick Nelson in their life. That final scene with N&C talking literally broke me, and it continues to do so on every rewatch. That was some of the most beautiful writing from Alice and truly some of the most awe-inspiring performances by young actors that I’ve ever seen on screen. Kit and Joe were just perfection.

2023-09-03 20:25:17 +0000 UTCjust the most heartbreakingly beautiful episode with phenomenal acting from everyone ❤️ i agree with you that whilst im incredibly buzzing for season 3 im also aware that it is going to absolutely break me😭

2023-09-03 20:09:06 +0000 UTCOne of my favourite little touches in this episode is the globe in Charlie's bedroom, when Nick & Charlie are getting dressed for prom. The light inside is off at the start of the scene, then as soon as Nick sees Charlie, the light is on. Charlie literally lights up his world.

2023-09-03 19:55:48 +0000 UTCThank you so much for this 💗 I recently found your yt channel, binge watched and quickly ended up here and I couldn’t be happier that I am. I’ve never had queer community and I still really struggle not to question whether I belong as a bi/demi/nonbinary person. Heartstopper has literally changed everything.. it’s completely dismantled me..I’m slowly starting to rebuild myself, without erasing that part of me. I don’t yet have adequate words for how hs and Alice’s work have truly affected me. Except maybe that hs feels euphorically, devastatingly, beautifully healing and world changing. I’m not the same and yet I’m more myself than I have ever been. Your reaction was really beautiful..thank you for being so vulnerable and open and sharing that with us..I hope you’re okay 💗

2023-09-03 19:55:12 +0000 UTCI mean, I cried especially the first couple times I’ve watched the last episode… but your reaction broke me😭😭😭 We cried together Jackie. I loved all of your reactions for season 2 but this one really made me so emotional!! Since Heartstopper S2 came out I literally can’t stop watching it. Even if I’m not able to watch an entire episode per day, I’d watch my favorite scene. That’s how much I love it! Also even did kind of a read-along while watching it (call me weird 😅🙈) This is by far the best tv show I’ve ever watched in my life! Thanks again for your lovely reactions and I’m so excited for the exclusive HS content and everything else that you will bring to us 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🍂🍂🍂

2023-09-03 19:52:40 +0000 UTCThank you so much for this. I came over to you from Courtney's recommendation. That's exactly how season two made me feel too. Kit and Joe were 18 when they filmed at final scene (Joe may have just turned 19), it's incredible acting. Heartstopper will save queer lives with how powerful it is. Thank you Heartstopper and thank you for reacting to it so honestly 💗

2023-09-03 19:13:02 +0000 UTCSo excited!! Alice has given such a strong voice to queers everywhere!!! As a very proud mom of a bi daughter I love these stories, they give us hope 🤞💕 It’s amazing how one hickey caused Nick to come out (so much for staying low key in Paris ❤️) In an IG post, they both said that they had so much fun filming full day of prom activities (what’s really interesting is that they said all the prom activities were improvised and filmed, nothing choreographed) and the next day took them 7 hours to film because the scene was emotionally, physically and mentally draining for both 💔😭 I noticed that s2e8 opened with Nick looking at pictures on wall then looking and opening instagram whereas s2e1 opens with Charlie doing same, also s1e8 started the same as s2e1. Nick also wore the same grey Nike T-shirt and jeans he wore to Charlie’s house in s2e1. Instead of Charlie destroying us at the beginning of S1E8, they, Charlie and Nick, destroyed us at the end of S2E8💔😭 “Colours of you, Nick and Charlie“ is the Heartstopper anthem and they are all a part of the music video.Charlie ends with “…it’s perfect” but nick’s face shows us that it’s not, it’s an illusion 💔 How can one word hold so much fear and pain 💔😭 Again because of people asking if dating, Charlie refused to eat again 😡💔😭Beautiful talk again with Tao and Nick about Charlie again (repeat of s1e8) and Nick was surprised that Charlie never spoke to anyone about the bullying, even though he did remember in s1e2 with bullies in hallway of locker. S1E2: Charlie asks Nick about haircut but we knew what he meant when he answered “no you… it looks good” in s2e8 Nick says “you look so good”. Stephan Frye back again (same as s1e8). Cameo and song by Baby Queen during dance. Bullies there again 😡 Nick trying to find Charlie (same as Harry’s bday party of s1e3) and both escaping prom with their friends. They greeted Darcy and Tara with a group hug. At the end, they both hugged their friends goodbye at the door like an old married couple ❤️ Their emotional scene at the end showed such maturity and love from both and with tears in each other’s eyes broke me (Alice also brought us back to the end of s1e8 when Nick wiped away tear after telling his mom he was bi) both wanting to say “I love you” at the door❤️They recreated their kiss in Charlie’s bedroom (same position and heels lifting up) and when the last song (played by Tao’s band Wasia Project, Will on keys and his sister singing) played, with worry in Nick’s eyes and a smiling Charlie wearing nick’s blue jumper (that was hanging on chair behind Charlie) home, the same way s2e1 ended with upset tori now upset Nick and a smiling Charlie ready to say I love you ❤️True soulmates💕💕 Oh my I just realized after rewatching s1, Tara that Darcy came out to Elle in s1e2, Tara came out to Nick in s1e3 at Harry’s birthday party. Nick came out to Tara (S1E6 girls) & Nick came out as bi at Tara’s bday party in Paris (S2E6) and ran to teachers room in Paris in same running formation holding hands (down hall to school gym) as end of e6 both s1 & s2.
