I'm probably not going to be super on top of updates and I can't read this right now. I had a family member die last night. I'm OK, we knew it was coming pretty soon, but I need to be present for that right now. So I'm sorry if I'm going to be a bit sloppy here for a bit.

Will Gao talks about what fans can expect from season 3

Joe says he's particularly excited for people to see season 3 episode 4

at 2:33. He also answers a question about which Heartstopper cast member was first to find out about his Marvel casting in this video.

Another view of *the wall* of *a place* in Alice's Instagram story

Previously we've seen this cropped version from Alice's Instagram season 3 wrap post:

 And while it's not hard to guess where that wall is, seeing the fire exit sign does confirm that it's from a communal/public type of place. But we knew that already. We know what this is.

Heartstopper advance screenings of the first 2 episodes on October 2nd

In London, Edinburgh. Bristol. Manchester and Dublin

Last episode of the Heartstopper podcast with Tobie Donovan and Rhea Norwood!

Just one vague spoiler this time!

Why was the BFF challenge just "complete the line" 3 times in a row 😅

New Alice Oseman interview - other Heartstopper links

Not about season 3

Wren James posted screenshots of the discussion that lead to the Henry/Jack Maddox character

They've also changed their Instagram username so I'll update that on the list

Are there any people here that haven't read the comics?

I only just now realized my trailer reaction video's discussion part is full of spoilers for the comics and I never even considered doing a spoiler warning because I just assumed you all would have read them. It only just now crossed my mind some of you might not have so I'm checking what the situation is and if I should be more careful about what I say and warn about spoilers in the future!

Another season 3 scene posted by Heartstopper on Instagram

😵 I know I should be grateful but I want to wait and watch these in context at this point please

Teaser about the secret "arts and crafts" Heartstopper project I've been working on!

Tiny little hoodie the size of my hand for a tiny little Charlie to wear perhaps? Sewing is not something I like doing, something I'm good at or something I care to learn really but I have to do it sometimes for this hobby. It's my least favourite part of it. But now after all the chemicals and power tools parts that were harder than anticipated plus a little bit of sewing ahead of time, it's time to get to the part I actually like! I was going to post a pic when I get to that part but I got ...

There's a countdown on Spotify for the official soundtrack

It's coming out October 4th. I'm glad it's not coming out before the season this time! Last time I didn't listen to it in advance because when it's close to release I don't want any spoilers (I'm not going to read the reviews when they come out next week either, learned my lesson from getting too many spoilers last time). The last track of season 2 referencing Wasia Project's Ur So Pretty melody while being titled "❤" was too much of a reveal right before the season came out for my personal...

The season 3 trailer on Netflix has an added shot of Nick holding out his hand for Charlie

Why is the version on Netflix different to what was posted everywhere before? It's just a few seconds but still... 🤔

Another Joe Locke quote about season 3 being more grown up - other Heartstopper links

He literally just says season 3 is more grown up and that's it. But it's a mention so into the extra playlist it goes.

Georgina Rich (Jane Spring) & Fisayo Akinade (Mr. Ajayi) share Jenny & Joe's Gay Times cover on Instagram stories

Georgina says "so proud of my children", Fisayo says "These two 💖 Jenny Walser and Joe Locke actually have my favourite relationship in the show."

Snipper from next Monday's Heartstopper podcast episode with Tobie and Rhea!

Whoops, I forgot to share this 😅 But surely you all follow the Heartstopper official Instagram anyway?

Joe Locke and Jenny Walser interview

This interview is great and juicy! Lots of quotes for me to grab! (This time I'm trying to be smart and copy all the quotes I think I can use into my script now so that I don't have to fully reread every single article later 😅)

Joe talks about being able to enjoy playing queer characters without too much pressure - other Heartstopper links

Around the 1:34 mark

He has said stuff similar to this in other interviews I didn't share but I'm sharing this because he says he's happy that Heartstopper is so important to people so I'm counting this as more of a Heartstopper mention I guess.

New Corinna Brown video interview!

She doesn't really say much about season 3, I'm still putting it in season 3 sources because I might still be able to use this a bit. (Man, she's looking gorgeous! Love this hair on her.)

Joe answers the question about Kit MCU casting rumours again - other Heartstopper links

They are really still trying with these questions (I'm counting the questions about Kit as vaguely Heartstopper related because they are asking if they're going to play a couple again... Specifically a couple Nick and Charlie have dressed up as years ago... So yeah, I'm counting it as related.)

New season 3 behind the scenes pictures

Surely that's director Andy Newbery? They didn't tag him and I'm not familiar enough with the back of his head by this point to say with 100% certainty. I need more pictures of him, I don't have many yet.

Joe talks about season 3 episode 1 beach costume in Esquire UK's Lookbook

At 2:14

Another animation behind the scenes from Anna Peronetto

Still can't embed videos in picture dumps here so the rest are in the original post https://www.instagram.com/p/DAGLwQfixDp/ and I do always put them in the season 2 stuff I missed Drive folder as well.

I'm just getting more and more Stuff I Missed to edit in. Will I ever be ready to call those done either? I'll have to be eventually.

Joe Locke gets asked how Charlie would do on the Witches' Road from Agatha - Other Heartstopper links

I started posting every mention of Heartstopper in these so I'm sticking to it 😅 (I'm not even posting every mention, just ones where he says SOMETHING we haven't heard before)

Joe Locke gets asked about differences between his characters in Heartstopper and Agatha All Along - other Heartstopper links

(I've just watched the first 2 episodes of Agatha and I don't know how I will handle waiting a week for the next one honestly)

Great observation by eveluvshtspr on Twitter/X

I'm sharing this because I saved a screenshot of this to use in my season 3 videos. I try to show sources to this kind of thing too nowadays to not pass off other people's observations as my own, which was never my intention. This time I'm adding the links to the source lists too.

Joe gets asked whether his characters in Heartstopper and Agatha All Along would get along - other Heartstopper links

At 3:25

I have a private playlist (on my personal Youtube account so I'm not sharing that) of all the Joe Agatha videos and there's 70 videos on there. I'm only sharing the instances where he talks about Heartstopper in these and you are still getting flooded with updates.
