He stole our hearts in Sex Education, proving that it's possible to be 'the best friend' and still the end up being 'the leading man', and earlier this year was cast as the next Doctor Who. One thing's for sure: Ncuti Gatwa is going to make a very fashionable Time Lord.
Fans have already been speculating on social media about what his costume, which changes with every Doctor, might involve. Could his latest look - a candy-coloured two-piece by Prada - be a taste of what's to come? Sitting front row at the label's latest menswear show in Milan, the actor stood from the (celebrity-filled) crowd with his sugary separates, perfect for soaring temperatures, and bare chest.
Like his on-screen alter ego Eric Effiong, Gatwa isn't afraid of shaking things up when it comes to his style. And while he occasionally wears a tuxedo on the red carpet, his stylist, Felicity Kay, is more likely to find something a little more interesting for him to sport.
