Hold onto your handlebars and stock up on Eggos, because Stranger Things is back for a second series and we're so ready to make a return trip to Hawkins, Indiana.

Radio 1 has been fans of the show and its young cast since the first series hit Netflix in 2016 and we hung out with two of its stars, Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp (who play Eleven and Will) this week.

It was more fun than a night with Barb in an empty swimming pool, that's for sure.

Radio 1 and 1Xtra has spent quite a bit of time with the cast of Stranger Things over the past year. Here are our favourite moments.

They've been giving us the heebie-jeebies since the summer of 2K16 so Grimmy felt it was only right to turn the tables and see what spooked Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven) and Noah Schnapp (Will).

Enlisting callers to reveal their real-life horror stories (toys arranging themselves in the attic, anyone?!), it's safe to say that Millie, Noah and Nick were more than a little bit unnerved by the Halloween-worthy happenings experienced by the Breakfast Show listeners.

While we'd probably pack up and move the minute we heard phantom footsteps in the loft, Noah's approach was more... gutsy: "You've just got to push through. You've just got to run in and scream." Screamy. Gutsy and screamy.

Prior to being scared stiff (fine, so we're exaggerating!), Grimmy blew Millie's and Noah's minds by revealing that, while filming for the psychological thriller Mother!, Jennifer Lawrence escaped the intensity by binging on episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians in a tent dubbed the 'Kardashian tent'.

"It got to a point in the movie where it got so dark I was like ya know what? I need the Kardashians," J Law told E! News.

But what would Millie's show of choice be? "I'd say Friends. Every night after dinner, my whole family would watch Friends and eat dinner but now I feel like it's a little bit more limited. When it ended I actually cried. I was very upset about it. I feel like everybody was."

We feel you, MBB. We're still not over it.

Fresh from the success of the first series of Stranger Things, we met up with Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin), and Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas) when they were just getting used to this whole 'fame' thing.

They dropped into the Radio 1 Breakfast Show a few months after the show premiered online and said how their minds had been blown, not by telekinesis, but by having fans like Robert Downey JR, Terry Crews, Maisie Williams and Daniel Radcliffe.

Gaten said: "They come up and they're like, 'I love Stranger Things', and I'm like, 'Well I love you!'"

Their interview with Grimmy was the best sort of chaos, as they revealed their favourite memes of themselves and what super powers they'd like to have. It was a bit of a struggle for Millie, however, as she fought to get a word in over Gaten and Caleb.

They teased her for slipping into a British accent while they were filming season one of Stranger Things.

She admitted she was once so scared on set that she started screaming 'like a British person' and showed us the difference between an American and British scream.

It's a thing. Honestly.

The cast of Stranger Things spent a lot of time surrounded by eighties influences while they filmed the show. And despite being born long after that decade, proved they have an incredible knowledge of the show.

Cheese-graters, treadmills, 'Pac Man hand'? These guys know all the facts about what happened in the eighties. Dotty was shook at how well they bossed her quiz.

Stranger Things series two premieres on Netflix on 27 October 2017
