We are taking a look back at the amazing few months that we had rewatching the first season of Young Royals and have put together two bumper collections of our favourite bits. This week, we have chosen some of our favourite moments, be they funny, emotional or reflective, either from, about or inspired by episodes 1 - 3 of Young Royals Season 1. So, settle in and enjoy!

If we have missed any of your best bits, then let us know on Insta: @aheartstopperpodcast or our Facebook group.

The end of the beginning

Luke and Indigo (with bonus notes from Ellie) bring Season 1 of Young Royals to a close. The explosive second half of episode 6 brings conversations about judging too soon(?), the many trials and tribulations of living as a queer person and a bonus fashion fix.

Let's get back to it!

So sorry crew, but Luke is down and out for 2 weeks.

Rest assured we will be back to it in 2 weeks time and determined not to have to take any more breaks for a while!

You know where to find us as always. Stay in touch and take care!

It's a heavy one.

Luke, Indigo and a returning Ellie are the Yellow and Blue Crew this week, discussing the first part of the hard hitting Episode 4. Discussion topics include the reality of royalty, funky formalities and graphic 'stuff'.

Things are escalating...

It's Luke and Indigo again, which means a lot has been edited out (though keep your ears peeled for the bloopers at the end of YR S1). Don't worry though, there were still plenty of discussion topics on the table including family friction, saying the right thing at the wrong time and 'going there'.

Songs for the playlist:

None this week!

It's all over the place!

Luke and Indigo are jumping around more than Wille this week as the discussions cover unrequited love, princely privilege, too many lies and everything else relating to the first half the third episode of the first season of Young Royals!
