About the New Season

From the multi-award winning Jimmy McGovern, the new season explores a new story with a women-led cast. Series 2 of Time will be led by Jodie Whittaker (Doctor Who), who is joined by Tamara Lawrance (The Silent Twins) and Bella Ramsey (His Dark Materials) for the 3x60 minute episodes.

Three women are pulled into each other’s orbit when they arrive at Carlingford prison on the same day. Struggling single mother Orla (played by Bella Ramsey) finds herself in a desperate situation as she struggles overcoming her heroin addition. As Orla is struggling to wrest her life back on track, she crosses paths with tough lifer Abi (Whittaker) who is haunted by a sinister secret that attracts unwanted attention.

As the three women face come to terms with the ever-present threat of violence within Carlingford prison, they discover an unexpected sense of community and a shared understanding.

Moving on from the Original Cast

There are so many reasons to go back and watch the BBC's gritty prison drama. Though, undoubtedly, the cast remains the biggest drawcard. The first season of Time starred A-listers Sean Bean and Stephen Graham in the main roles, bringing together two fantastic British actors.

Sean Bean plays convict Mark Hebden, who faces a lengthy spell behind bars. Stephen Graham stars alongside Bean as Eric, a prison officer who tries to protect those in his charge. Individually, the two actors have put their own stamp on this memorable production.
