The Sex Factor

- 

Navigating puberty and burgeoning sexual feelings is tricky enough for any teen, but spare a thought for socially awkward high-school student Otis in Netflix’s new comedy-drama Sex Education. He has the added embarrassment of a mother who’s a forthright sexual therapist and is forever offering him advice he hasn't asked for.

Otis (Asa Butterfield) is a virgin with a low libido – the consequence of overhearing rather too much of his mother’s therapy sessions. His mother, Jean, played by Gillian Anderson, is frank about everything and nothing embarrasses her, which puts a strain on their relationship.
