Noel Clarke (Doctor Who) and Ashley Walters (Safe House) will return as police partners and best friends Aaron Bishop and Ronnie Pike

Coming from different backgrounds, the detectives use their unconventional methods to fight crime together for the National Crime Agency in London, crossing paths with dangerous gangs, sex traffickers and drug dealers. 

Stars Clarke and Walters, who grew up on US cop shows Bad Boys and Lethal Weapon, co-created the series with Nick Love.

The first series drew in Sky One's largest average audience of the year, with 1.59 million viewers tuning in to the first episode of the police drama.

“This is a culturally significant and ground-breaking show in many ways, and we appreciate the record views and support along the way," said Noel Clarke. 

"We made this show for people we feel are underrepresented so they could be entertained, which they were, and they came out in droves to watch. Thank you to all who tuned in and see you for series two.”

"The audience response to the show has been overwhelming," said Ashley Walters of the following the show has garnered. 

"I'm looking forward to working with the rest of the Bulletproof team on series two - we've got some exciting storylines lined up," he promised. "The action and drama is about to step up to the next level!"
