Joe Locke and Kit Connor who play Charlie and Nick have recreated the original cover for the special edition.

The photo was taken “especially for it” as they “wanted to create something extra special that combines the wonderful actors with the original cover”.

Oseman also confirmed on Twitter that the special edition of Heartstopper will “feature some excerpts of the TV scripts”.

“I picked some of the moments from the show that are very similar to scenes from the books so you can see how I wrote some iconic Heartstopper moments in script form,” she adds.
