First look images have been released for the second series of RTS award-winning comedy Everyone Else Burns which is returning to Channel 4 later this year to stream and watch live. Co-produced by Jax Media UK, part of Imagine Entertainment, and Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group, the comedy will see the god-fearing Lewis family return and challenge their commitment to The Order more than ever before…

The images feature Simon Bird (The Inbetweeners), Kate O’Flynn (Landscapers), Amy James-Kelly (Military Wives) and Harry Connor (Robin and the Hoods) alongside new cast member Maude (Sian Clifford; Fleabag) who joins as an imposing new member of the order and threatens to lead David astray. The images also feature Morgana Robinson (The Windsors) as Melissa, Arsher Ali (Funny Woman) as Elder Samson plus newcomer Paddy Young (Timewasters) who stars as Rachel’s proposed love interest, Jeb.

Relationships are front and centre as Rachel’s drive for independence is threatened by an arranged marriage and cracks widen between Fiona and David. Aaron, meanwhile, will launch a revolutionary bid to drag The Order into the present day (with, and in spite of, his Dad’s help.)

The critically acclaimed Everyone Else Burns is written by Dillon Mapletoft and Oliver Taylor. Executive Producers include Brooke Posch, Tony Hernandez, Molly Seymour, Jax Media’s Jake Fuller and Dave Binegar, as well as Dillon Mapletoft and Oliver Taylor. Olly Cambridge (A Whole Lifetime with Jamie Demetriou) will serve as Producer and Jamie Jay Johnson (Starstruck) directs.

The second series was commissioned for Channel 4 by Head of Comedy, Charlie Perkins and Comedy Commissioning Editor, Laura Riseam.

Filming took place in Manchester and specific transmission details will be announced in due course.
