Heartstopper Quiz

[CW: language, lies]
 
The quizmaster's answers are final, no matter what...
 
Join Luke, Indigo, Finn and Ellie for the first of two weeks of festive fun. Indigo has roped their partner into creating a Heartstopper quiz, but having never seen the series or read the books, how will he do? And how will we do? And how will you do?
