Banished Series 2? Actor Russell Tovey would “love” to revive the cancelled BBC Two period drama for a second series, per RadioTimes:
“Yes, I’d love [to bring Banished back]. That was an incredible job. It was an expensive show, you take everyone out to Australia for like 5 months, and I feel like it would’ve been brilliant to do it again. I’m quite sad.”
However, while Tovey would very much like Banished to follow in the revival footsteps of Ripper Street, he believes the window of opportunity may have already passed:
“Hopefully another channel will do it, but I don’t know if the time, the window for that opportunity has passed. Ripper Street happened quite soon after, you know, so…maybe one day.”
Stay tuned for updates should Banished ever escape the cancellation graveyard…
