New Addition to ‘Sex Education’ Season 4: That’s Why O Actress Thaddea Graham Looks So Familiar

After moving to Cavendish College, ‘Sex Education’ protagonist Otis (Asa Butterfield) actually wants to support his sexologist classmates with advice at his new training center. The problem is that Cavendish already has a teen sex therapist, the hardened O (whose real name is Sarah Owen). A fierce competition begins.

O is played by 26-year-old Thaddea Graham, who was abandoned as a baby in her native China and raised in Northern Ireland after being adopted before eventually pursuing an acting career in Britain. Graham has worked almost exclusively in the series sector until now, but despite her young age she already has a few projects on her CV.

After her debut in a few episodes of the British sci-fi children’s series “The Sparticle Mystery”, she appeared in the series “Curfew”, “Us”, “Redemption” and “Wreck”, each with the main cast. She also had a recurring role in four episodes of the 13th season of the cult series “Doctor Who”.

An old Netflix acquaintance

Internationally, however, Graham is best known for her central roles in two extensive series productions that she made for streaming provider Netflix before ‘Sex Education’: So she initially had fantasy adventures “The letter for the king“ has a larger supporting role as the warrior Iona. In the dark young detective series “The Baker Street gang“ Soon after, she even led the young cast that helped the legendary duo of Sherlock Holmes and James Watson with their investigations.

However, both projects had no future. While it is somewhat unclear in the case of the book adaptation ‘The Letter for the King’ whether there was any talk of a second season at all, ‘The Gang from Baker Street’ was canceled shortly after season 1 due to a lack of interest. With the fourth season of ‘Sex Education,’ Thaddea Graham immediately landed her next Netflix job, which will surely be followed by a few more.
