Series two of the RTS award-winning dark comedy The End of the F***ing World returns to Channel 4 next month.

The eight-part series will air two episodes in a double bill every night starting on Monday 4th November, with the entire series available to stream on All 4 following premiere's double bill.

Jessica Barden reprises her role as mouthy and brazen runaway Alyssa, but the fate of James (Alex Lawther) is yet to be determined.

New images show Alyssa dressed as a bride outside a remote woodland café and in a diner uniform in the forest.

The new series is set two years on from the series one cliff-hanger – which saw the screen go black as a gunshot was fired as James ran away – and Alyssa is still dealing with the fallout of past actions.

Naomi Ackie (Lady Macbeth) joins the cast as strange new character Bonnie, an outsider with a troubled past and mysterious connection to Alyssa, and Tim Key (This Time with Alan Partridge) also joins as motel owner Gus.

Charlie Covell has returned to write series two of the show, which is based on the comic book series by Charles Forsman.

The series is a co-production between Channel 4 and Netflix and is the best performing original All 4 exclusive.

The first series is available to watch on All 4 and Netflix now.
