The BBC has renewed its critically acclaimed crime drama This City Is Ours for a second season after its first series became the broadcaster's most-watched new drama, attracting over 6.6 million viewers per episode. Set in Liverpool and starring James Nelson-Joyce and Sean Bean, the show centers on the Phelan family's struggle for control over their drug trafficking empire, culminating in high-stakes confrontations and unresolved vendettas in the first season.
