Peter Capaldi hunts a monster in ominous The Devil's Hour season 2 trailer
Get ready for another time-twisting season.
*Warning: The Devil's Hour season 1 spoilers ahead*
The first season of The Devil's Hour blew viewers away, with its twist ending revealing that Peter Capaldi's Gideon has lived and died over and over again, being one of the only people in existence who is aware that time is an endless loop, and remembers his previous existences.
Now, we've got a brand new trailer for the upcoming second season, which sees Gideon asking Jessica Raine's Lucy to join him to hunt down and stop a monster.
The trailer shows us multiple different versions of Lucy's existence, and also introduces us Saffron Hocking's new police officer character.
You can watch the trailer for the five-episode second season right here now.
The official synopsis for season 2 says: "The Devil’s Hour season 2 sees Lucy (Jessica Raine) and Gideon (Peter Capaldi) forming an uneasy alliance in order to prevent a recurring tragedy and hunt down an elusive monster.
"Lucy’s double life sees her torn between family and duty as she finds herself in the crosshairs of her past-life husband, DI Ravi Dhillon (Nikesh Patel). Assisting Dhillon in his investigation is DS Sam Boyd (Saffron Hocking) who was mentored by DI Lucy Chambers in a previous life.
"Meanwhile, Isaac (Benjamin Chivers) is discovering new emotions every day and struggling to keep his balance in a reality that rejects his existence. Fresh mysteries unfold as our stories converge on one explosive moment that will change the fate of our characters for the rest of their ever-recurring lives."

The trailer was revealed live on stage during a panel featuring Jessica Raine at Prime Video Presents: Trailblazers in London, an event celebrating the women of Prime Video and Amazon MGM Studios.
Speaking at the event, Raine said: "Season 2 answers lingering questions from season 1, offering a thrilling experience filled with hidden Easter eggs.
"The audience becomes the detective, piecing together a jigsaw puzzle which you have to keep watching. If you really concentrate, you are rewarded, and the reward is truly satisfying – like completing a 2000-piece jigsaw puzzle."
Of course, the audience will not just be rewarded in season 2 – there is also a third and final season on the way, which has already wrapped filming.
