“Katherine Kelly and Eve Myles Return in the Intense New SEASON 2 of Psychological Crime Thriller That Viewers Are Already Calling One of the Best British Shows in Years — Bigger, Darker, and More Twisted Than Happy Valley?! Brace yourself — the “fantastic” British crime thriller that fans couldn’t stop bingeing is officially back. The Thriller, starring Happy Valley’s Katherine Kelly and Torchwood’s Eve Myles, has been renewed for a second season, promising an even more “intense and emotionally charged” ride than before. Season one hooked audiences with its chilling story of a detective forced to team up with a psychotherapist to track a murderer leaving young men’s bodies across Bristol — and season 2 is set to go even deeper into betrayal, obsession, and the darkness hiding in plain sight. With fans already hailing it as “one of the best British shows in years,” the countdown to this twisted return has officially begun.
The hit psychological thriller, The Crow Girl, has been renewed for a second season. The crime series, which stars Happy Valley’s Katherine Kelly and Torchwood‘s Eve Myles, promises to return with an “intense and emotionally charged” series two, with filming set to commence in Bristol this year. Series one of the Paramount+ series saw detective Jeanette Kilburn take on a murder investigation after the bodies of unidentified young men started showing up around Bristol, enlisting the help of the prime suspect’s psychotherapist, Dr Sophia Craven.
Having loved the first season of The Crow Girl, I am so pleased that the thriller will return for a second outing. Katherine Kelly and Eve Myles are both brilliant in this pacy and compelling series, which went down a storm with viewers upon its release earlier this year. Keep reading to find out all we know about season two.

Season two picks up the morning after the events of the series one finale, with Bristol Police Detective Jeanette Kilburn having ended her marriage and found herself in bed with enigmatic psychologist Dr Sophia Craven. The synopsis continues: “Jeanette’s hunt for the killers of young male asylum seekers takes a shocking new turn when a mummified body is discovered in a church wall and a body in a freezer reveals a chilling connection. As Jeanette digs deeper, Sophia begins to suspect Victoria Burkeman, her mysterious and unstable former patient who has previously been convicted of multiple murders, could be responsible. With the case growing darker, Sophia suspects Victoria is more familiar than she thought, and Jeanette must face the terrifying truth: the killer may be closer than she ever imagined.”
