Will there be a season 2 of Before We Die?

It's unclear whether they'll be another series of Before We Die, filmed in Bristol.

Channel 4 hasn't renewed the drama yet, although the first series was only released in May 2021.

And Lesley Sharp, who plays main character Hannah, wants to reprise her role.

She told the in a recent interview: "They all survive by the skin of their teeth so they need a bit of rest and recuperation if they're coming back.

"But you know, I think the thing is those questions are always down to - they’re sort of not really down to us.

"It’s down to whether or not the show proves to be something that people want to watch.

"You can't second guess that. You can keep your fingers crossed because you think something's good but there’s no knowing."

Patrick Gibson, who plays Christian, also wants to return for another series.

He recently told : "There’s no plot lines that are left unanswered necessarily, but the show ends on - like yeah absolutely [there could be] more, it could develop.

"I would love to [make a second season], I think even just to see.

"For every character there’s an emotional arc that happens where they’re not the same person as they are at the start of the show.

"[To] pick that up and see a whole other few episodes with them would be really cool."
