Will there be a second season of Ridley Road?
Sarah Solemani adapted Jo Bloom's Ridley Road for BBC One.
*Warning: spoilers ahead for Ridley Road season one*
BBC One period drama Ridley Road was only recently released as a box set, but fans are already wondering whether the series will be renewed for a second season.
The series focuses on Vivien Epstein, a young Jewish woman who travels to London in search of an elusive old flame, Jack Morris. By the end of episode one, she’s been sent undercover inside a fascist organisation, where she reunites with Jack (also undercover).
Meanwhile Rory Kinnear (Years and Years) co-starred in the drama as real-life fascist Colin Jordan, who led the National Socialist Movement (NSM), a neo-Nazi group.
Ridley Road's Aggi O’Casey and Tom Varey discussed the worrying parallels between the Swinging Sixties and now in an exclusive Big RT Interview interview with RadioTimes.com.
The four-part drama, which was particularly timely following the recent rise of antisemitism, was based on Jo Bloom's novel of the same name. However, just like the book, the TV series ended with our two lovers reuniting.
