‘Sherwood’ Series 2 featuring music composed by Lorne Balfe begins airing Sunday 25th August on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
‘The second series further explores the powerful themes that made the first so resonant to audiences across the UK. Set in the present day, it introduces two new families that find themselves entangled with the Sparrows, entering a complex web of local gangs, old rivalries, revenge and betrayal. Meanwhile, a newly appointed sheriff of Nottingham is passionately fighting against a proposed new mine for the area, which brings the promise of much needed jobs and prosperity, but also unwelcome reminders of the legacy that has mired the community for so long.’
The six-part series is written by James Graham, directed by Clio Barnard and Tom George and stars David Morrissey, Lesley Manville, Monica Dolan, David Harewood and Lorraine Ashbourne.
