BBC’s crime drama This City Is Ours dives deep into Liverpool’s criminal world, mixing ambition, loyalty, and betrayal. Season 1 followed Ronnie Phelan, an aging drug lord, and the power struggle between his son Jamie and loyal deputy Michael Kavanagh. The drama received high praise for its realism and performances, especially James Nelson-Joyce as Michael.

Is Season 2 Confirmed?

There is no official renewal yet. Still, the cast and creators are hopeful:

In the 2025 BBC drama This City Is Ours, set against Liverpool’s cinematic backdrop, Sean Bean, as Ronnie Phelan, expressed enthusiasm for its future, stating he’d “bite their hands off to make more” episodes beyond the initial eight, signaling hopes for a lasting series. Julie Graham, playing Elaine Phelan, praised its “addictive” quality, comparing it to a “roller coaster ride” and dubbing it “The Scouse Sopranos” for its gripping narrative. Creator Stephen Butchard explained that while commissioned as a standalone eight-episode tale of real-life emotions, the show’s universal themes of loyalty and betrayal leave room for expansion, blending a complete story with potential for more. BBC is watching closely, especially on iPlayer stats, before making a decision.

When Could Season 2 Arrive?

If renewed in 2025, filming might begin late in the year, suggesting a release by spring 2026. This is speculative and depends on production timelines and BBC’s decision.

What Might Happen Next?

Season 2 could pick up after major twists:

  • Jamie now runs the empire.
  • Michael hides the secret of killing Ronnie.
  • Diana and baby Alfie were kidnapped, adding personal stakes.
  • Ricardo’s death could cause international turmoil.
  • Cheryl might become a police informant.

Expect more gang wars, betrayals, and new players entering the scene.

Cast: Who’s Likely to Return?

Returning characters may include:

  • James Nelson-Joyce (Michael)
  • Jack McMullen (Jamie)
  • Julie Graham (Elaine)
  • Hannah Onslow (Diana)
  • Saoirse-Monica Jackson (Cheryl)
  • Mike Noble (Banksey)
  • Laura Aikman (Rachel)
  • Kevin Harvey (Bobby)
  • Darci Shaw (Melissa)
  • Bobby Schofield (Bonehead)

Sean Bean is unlikely to return except possibly in flashbacks.

What Critics Said About Season 1

Critics responded strongly to the first season:

  • The Telegraph: ★★★★★ – praised the acting
  • The Times: ★★★★ – highlighted realistic dialogue
  • New Statesman: “Marvellous and witty”
  • The Independent: ★★★★ – praised complexity and depth
  • Financial Times: “Solid” and culturally rich
  • The Guardian: ★★★ – noted it was a bit generic

The mix of gritty storytelling, strong characters, and Liverpool’s local flavor struck a chord.

Trailers or Promos for Season 2?

No official teasers or trailers yet. For Season 1, BBC promoted it with:

  • Clips featuring James Nelson-Joyce
  • A Radio Times feature with Sean Bean

Expect a similar rollout if Season 2 is greenlit.
