Get ready for a fresh dose of Tasmanian chaos as the acclaimed crime drama Bay Of Fires makes its highly anticipated return. The show's second season, which has already proven a smash hit in Australia, is set to premiere on ITVX, promising more dark humour and criminal intrigue for UK audiences.
When To Watch The New Season
Mark your calendars: all eight episodes of Bay Of Fires series two will land on ITVX on Sunday, November 30. The first season, which garnered an impressive over six million streams on the platform, is available to watch now for those needing a refresher.
The new season finds our protagonist, Stella Heikkinen, in a precarious position. Now the leader of the remote community of Mystery Bay, she is juggling solo parenting while trying to keep her criminal associates at arm's length. A synopsis for the new episodes teases that Stella's relatively prosperous management of the town is thrown into disarray by a host of new threats.
Meet The Returning And New Cast
Leading the charge once again is Marta Dusseldorp, who reprises her central role as Stella. She is joined by a stellar ensemble of returning cast members, including Toby Leonard Moore (Billions), Nicholas Bell (Scrublands), and Pamela Rabe (Wentworth).
The second season also welcomes several new faces to the fray. Joining the cast are Benedict Hardie (Total Control), Alex Dimitriades (Strife), and Darren Gilshenan (Colin from Accounts), who are sure to add new layers to the show's already complex web of characters.
Behind The Scenes: Filming In Tasmania
Just like the first season, the production showcases the raw, breathtaking beauty of Tasmania’s rugged west coast. Major filming locations for the new season included the towns of Zeehan, Queenstown, and Strahan, providing a stunning yet forbidding backdrop for the series' dark narrative.
With a charismatic lead, a gripping plot, and a unique setting, Bay Of Fires season two is shaping up to be a must-watch event for fans of smart, character-driven crime dramas.
