Everything to Remember Ahead of 'D.I. Ray' Season 2

Less than a year after its first season aired on linear on most PBS stations, the U.K. police procedural D.I. Ray is back for a second season. D.I. Ray is one of many shows with a cast and creative team that trace back to the BBC’s hugely successful Line of Duty. Series creator Jed Mercurio is also the mastermind behind shows like Netflix’s Bodyguard and Trigger Point (which recently moved from Peacock to BritBox), and he produces D.I. Ray, which is written by former Line of Duty star Maya Sondhi and stars Parminder Nagra, who you know from iconic film and TV roles in Bend It Like Beckham, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and many more.

Perhaps thanks to this tried-and-true team, D.I. Ray was quickly renewed for a second season by ITV before Season 1 had even aired in the U.S. (It was available as an early binge on PBS Passport for members for several months before it aired.) However, the series hasn’t quite grabbed hold of US viewers yet, so if you want to be ahead of the curve and hop onboard for Season 2, or if the twists and turns of Season 1 have got your memory in knots, here’s everything you need to remember from the first six episodes.
