According Alice Oseman, Season 3 was a means for the main pair and the rest of the students to delve deeper into the mature side of their lives:
“I’m really excited that we are allowing the tone of the show to mature alongside our beloved characters growing up. Nick, Charlie, and the Heartstopper teens are getting older, learning more about themselves and each other, and experiencing new desires, new fears, and new joys as they approach adulthood.”
