Sex Education, one of the best and most popular shows on Netflix last year, returned for a second series early this year.

 

The opening scenes celebrated the show’s smart and loveable 16-year-old hero, Otis, finally overcoming his neuroses and learning to masturbate.

 

The comic montage had the perfect soundtrack: Scala & Kolacny Brothers’ euphoric choral cover of Divinyls’ 1990 hit “I Touch Myself”. 

 

The Australian rock band were formed in 1980 by singer Chrissy Amphlett and guitarist Mark McEntee.
