Three summers ago, Stranger Things premiered on Netflix and quickly became one of the first streamed series to really explode.

The sci-fi series takes place in the '80s and features a cast of fairly unknown kids at the centre of its storyline. Caleb McLaughlin is one of those kids. He plays Lucas Sinclair on the show, which is about to return for its third season.

Ahead of the return of Stranger Things on Netflix tomorrow, McLaughlin joined q's Tom Power to talk about what it's like to grow up in front of an audience on one of the definitive shows of our time.
