Following the success of its first season, Alice Levine’s Sex Actually is returning to our screens with even more eye-opening action.
A year and a half since it first hit screens, Alice Levine’s hit documentary series Sex Actually is returning to Channel 4 for a second instalment.
The series, which is produced by Louis Theroux’s Mindhouse Productions, sees Levine travel across the UK to meet people pushing the boundaries of sex, intimacy and relationships.
In the first season, Levine explored everything from sexual wellness to BDSM and ‘cam couples’ monetising their sex life online.
And the second season will introduce audiences to even more eye-opening concepts, from the growing world of ‘digi-sexuals’ to the concept of ‘relationship anarchy’.
Speaking about the show’s return, Levine said she was “thrilled” to get the opportunity to explore even further.
“Even though the people of Gogglebox will likely once again spit out their dinner, I’m thrilled Channel 4 have decided to have me back to explore some more extraordinary love and relationships stories,” she said.

“Working with Louis and the Mindhouse team on Sex Actually, from developing episode ideas to seeing the shows come together in the edit, has truly been a documentary masterclass.
“But, of course, some things you can’t teach, and ‘sitting in the corner of the room trying not to watch while people have sex’ is one of them. You’ve either got it, or you haven’t.”
The three-part series will start tomorrow (27 February), and will air for the next two Mondays afterward.
This isn’t the first time Levine – who left her job as a presenter on BBC Radio 1 back in 2020 – has presented her own documentary.
Her 2019 film Sleeping With The Far Right saw her spend a week living with British nationalist Jack Sen and his family, in an attempt to understand where his far-right views came from.
For now, however, we’re excited to see what Levine and Theroux get up to with the second season of Sex Actually.
Sex Actually season one is available to watch on All4 now. The first episode will air on Channel 4 at 1opm tomorrow.
