Chris Miles: The caring and mature figure. Having been abandoned by his parents, Chris is attracted to responsible, intelligent women who bring stability to his life. He starts with a platonic fantasy about his teacher (Angie) and truly falls in love with Jal, the most sensible, focused, and down-to-earth girl in the group.

Alo Creevey: The unattainable magazine cover girl (who is vulnerable deep down). Alo spends his life longing for porn actresses and popular mall girls. He ends up getting involved with his aesthetic "ideal type": Mini McGuinness, the perfect blonde socialite. However, he truly falls in love when he discovers that behind that facade is a real and needy girl. Rich Hardbeck: The girl who breaks his prejudices.

Matty likes chaos and the feeling of escape. He's attracted to intense, free, and slightly dangerous girls, like Liv, or deeply confused and androgynous girls with whom he can share an artistic and dark connection, like Franky.

The Teaching Model (Sixth Form): Roundview is neither a boarding school nor a primary school. In the UK, it is classified as a Sixth Form College. This means it's a school specifically for 16-18 year olds. It only covers the last two years of preparation before university (equivalent to the final years of our high school). That's why each generation of characters lasts exactly two seasons: each season represents one academic year for them at this school. 🎒 The Environment and Routine: Freedom of Style: As it's a college, students don't wear uniforms. This allowed the series to explore the distinctive clothing of each character (like Effy's grunge style or Franky's androgyny) within the classroom environment itself. Lack of Teacher Awareness: Roundview's classrooms are the setting for several comical and bizarre moments. Teachers are generally portrayed as completely lost, eccentric adults, or incapable of controlling the students. The school principal, David Blood (who happens to be Grace's father in the 3rd generation), tries to impose strict rules, but always fails.

Michelle Richardson: The charming and challenging boy (who needs boundaries). Michelle is drawn to magnetic, handsome, and popular guys like Tony. She enjoys the adrenaline rush of being with the group's leader, but her true type evolves to someone who truly values ​​her and treats her with respect, tiring of childish guys who only play with her feelings.

She wants someone who looks beyond her eccentricity and genuinely wants to take care of her and her fragile heart. Jal Fazer: The chaotic boy who needs an anchor. Being the most mature and focused of the group, Jal isn't interested in perfect guys. Her type is the free-spirited, fun-loving guy who doesn't care about rules, like Chris. She's attracted to guys who bring lightness to her rigid life, while she offers the stability they need.

Effy Stonem: The calm, stable boy who will be her anchor. Although she has a strong sexual attraction to the danger and impulsiveness of Cook (with whom she shares a destructive side), Effy's true ideal type is her opposite: the sensible, patient, and protective boy like Freddie. She needs a guy who can calm her noisy mind and hold her hand when she loses control. Pandora Moon: The gentlemanly, exotic, and kind-hearted boy. Pandora is naive and childish, so she doesn't fit with the cynical and malicious boys of Bristol. Her ideal type is the sweet, hardworking boy with strong family values ​​like Thomas. She likes old-fashioned romantic boys who treat her like a princess. Katie Fitch: The popular, high-status athlete. Initially, Katie's type is purely superficial. She wants the "trophy boy": tall, strong, a team player, and popular at school, like Nick Levan. Emily Fitch: The strong, mysterious, and authentic girl. Being a lesbian, Emily's ideal type is a girl who has the courage she herself lacked at the beginning. She falls madly in love with Naomi, an intelligent, politically aware girl with a rebellious attitude who doesn't care about the opinions of others. Naomi Campbell: The sweet, persistent, and romantic girl. Naomi is cynical, defensive, and intellectual. Her ideal type is the exact opposite: someone gentle, sensitive, and emotionally open like Emily, who has the patience to break down her barriers and teach her how to show affection.

Franky Fitzgerald: The mysterious, artistic, and unpredictable person (no defined gender). Because Franky's sexuality is very fluid, her ideal type is enigmatic, profound, and somewhat poetic people. She is attracted to both the dark rebellion of guys like Matty and the artistic authenticity of girls with whom she shares an intimate connection. Grace Blood: The misunderstood bad boy with a good heart. Grace is the typical sweet and optimistic ballerina, and her ideal type is the classic rebel with a cause. She falls for Rich because she can see his intelligence, sensitivity, and romanticism behind his aggressive and cynical metalhead facade. Mini McGuinness: The simple, loyal boy who accepts her without makeup. Mini spends a lot of time pretending to like the popular athlete (Nick) to keep up appearances. But her real type reveals itself in the opposite: the simple, funny, awkward, and unfiltered country boy like Alo. She needs guys who can disarm her neuroses and love her for who she truly is. Liv Malone: ​​The free and unattached girl. Liv lives intensely and hates demands or suffocating relationships. Her type of guy is mysterious, nomadic, and lives on the fringes, like Matty. She enjoys the feeling of adventure and danger, using it as fuel to escape her own monotonous reality.

Tony and Effy's Parents (Ant Stonem and Georgina Stonem): The father, Ant, is an arrogant, loud, and chauvinistic man who idolizes Tony and ignores Effy's signs of depression. The mother, Georgina, is depressed, distant, and cheats on her husband. It's a wealthy but cold home full of secrets.

Franky's Adoptive Parents (Jeff and John): Franky was adopted by a loving, middle-class gay male couple. Although they try to give Franky all the support in the world, she carries deep traumas from her past before the adoption (bullying and abandonment) that they don't know how to fix.

She tries to manage every minute of his life, which makes Alo want to escape on a tractor or destroy the farm at parties.
