*WARNING* This episode contains spoilers for Heartstopper Volume 5.
Did Alice set out for Heartstopper to be a happy love story? Will Volume 6 really be the last instalment in the series? These are all burning questions we couldn't wait to ask Alice Oseman, the brains behind graphic novel series Heartstopper. The books are a worldwide phenomenon as well as a smash-hit Netflix series, and the latest instalment is no different.
Alice tells us all about Volume 5 and the importance of themes within it and also discusses channeling personal experiences while writing about asexuality. Do you want a Heartstopper read along when the long awaited final instalment Volume 6 comes out?! Let us know!

You may know Crystal from the very first series of Ru Paul's Drag Race UK. However, the Canadian drag queen has been in the news recently for another reason: making LGBT history by taking on Laurence Fox for deformation, and winning.
Crystal takes us through the complexities of the past 3 and a half years, from Laurence Fox calling them a pedophile on Twitter to winning their libel case on all counts. Plus, Crystal tells us about that iconic Elle Woods look. This is a truly empowering story about the importance of sticking up for yourself.
