Dark comedy thriller Sweetpea is to return to Sky for a second series.

The 'coming-of-rage' show, which launched on Sky Atlantic in October, stars Ella Purnell as Rhiannon, a seemingly meek woman who turned into a murderer.

The producers confirm: "Series 2 will see Rhiannon Lewis return with a vengeance as her killer secret continues to spiral, and she becomes more twisted than ever."

Ella Purnell says: "Being part of Rhiannon's coming-of-rage journey has been a career highlight for me, and to see fans engage with and relate to our oddball Rhiannon, in all her complexity, feels truly special. I cannot wait for audiences to see what she does next. Stay tuned."

Series 2 of Sweetpea is expected to be filmed and broadcast in 2025.
