Martin Clunes drama Manhunt is returning for a second season, set to debut on streaming service Acorn TV this October.

The first season of the show aired back in 2019 and was a surprising hit for British network ITV, becoming the highest-rated new drama on any U.K. channel that year. Clunes portrays former London Metropolitan Police detective, DCI Colin Sutton, on whose real-life diaries this series is based.

The first season followed the story of the hunt for serial killer Levi Bellfield, and how the murder of Amelie Delagrange on Twickenham Green in 2004 was eventually linked to the killing of Marsha McDonnell in 2003 and the abduction and murder of Milly Dowler as she traveled home from school in 2002.
