The three-part mini-series followed Sean Bean as a former teacher who ends up in prison, and Stephen Graham as a prison guard who has to make impossible choices.
The show was recently announced to be returning for a second season, although RadioTimes.com understands that it will take an anthology format, meaning it will feature a new cast and a group of new characters.
In an interview with Radio Times magazine, the BBC's Chief Content Office Charlotte Moore confirmed that Time would be returning alongside other BBC dramas The Tourist,The Responder and Vigil.

In his acceptance speech at the 2022 TV BAFTAs, Stephen Graham said that the cast and crew really weren't expecting to win the award.
The series beat out, amongst other shows, It's a Sin, which was nominated for seven awards and was a big contender in the lead up to the night.
Going into the ceremony, Stephen Graham was also nominated for the Supporting Actor award for his role in Time, while Sean Bean was nominated for Leading Actor.
