KARIN PIRIE, Season 2 news

Great news! ITV has commissioned series 2 of Karen Pirie, starring Lauren Lyle and adapted by Emer Kenny. The second series is based on Val McDermid’s A Darker Domain, and produced by World Productions. In the second season, Karen reopens the investigation into the unsolved kidnap of a wealthy young heiress and her baby son back in 1985.

I loved Season One. Go, Val! So happy to see there will be a second series, and hopefully more!
 
Emer Kenny will return to write and executive produce the episodes along with Scottish writer Gillian Roger Park. Karen Pirie will premiere on ITV1 and ITVX in the UK. Season One is available on Britbox in the US, so probably Season 2 will air there, as well.

Filming will begin in Scotland in early 2024 and details of further casting and key production personnel will be advised in the coming months. Oh my. That's a long way off, but still....Of course, you can always read the novel by Val McDermid and the others in the series now.
