“In my mind, explosive stuff is going to happen, which will be great,” and “There’s a great destination for it, but I don’t know if we’re in a position to talk about the actual details of it.”

Said Steven Knight, head of drama at BBC when asked about the storyline of season two. The second Season promises “daring and different”. He also added “I can feel the three acts.

The first was ‘the escape’. The second will be ‘the journey’ and the third will be ‘the arrival’, and that’ll be it. I don’t think the story will be what viewers are expecting, but hopefully, they’ll enjoy it.”
