Who could it be? If you guessed Mr Groff, you’re absolutely correct. 

As expected, Sex Education superfans now want to know everything about them and more about their unexpected family connection.

Firstly, their real names are Cal and Brodie Petrie, 18, and their famous TV dad is Alistair Petrie, 50, best known as Michael Groff. 

Mr Groff was the stick and often angry headmaster of Morale Secondary School.

Fans will also be able to spot the twins smirking in the background during the infamous poo scene, when Colin Hendricks realises the brown stuff is someone’s number two.

The comments section is filled with shocked fans and a couple of thirsty reactions too, with many pointing out that the Groffs could actually be father and son.

“Icl I fully thought Adam was his son irl,” wrote one TikTok user. “They look so alike.”
