Under Salt Marsh, a crime drama from Claire Oakley and Little Door Productions in association with Sky Studios, is returning for a second season at Sky.
Rafe Spall reprises his turn as Detective Eric Bull in the six-part follow-up. Season one earlier this year was the biggest Sky original drama launch since The Day of the Jackal. It logged a 28-day audience of 2.5 million.
Meghan Lyvers, MD for scripted originals at Sky, said, “Under Salt Marsh deeply connected with our audiences, and we’re delighted to be returning to the world Claire Oakley created for a new chapter. Claire is an exceptional storyteller, with a remarkable ability to create richly drawn characters and a powerful sense of place, and we can’t wait to see where she takes audiences next. Rafe brought such complexity and humanity to Bull in the first series, and it’s fantastic to have him back at the heart of this new story.”
Filming begins in Scotland next year for launch on Sky in the U.K., Ireland and Italy. NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution will handle international sales.
