Will there be another series of Chloe?

Despite it’s popularity, a second season of Chloe hasn’t yet been confirmed by the BBC.

The show’s creator Alice Seabright has said that while there is “potential’ to continue the story, she isn’t sure at this point “if it’s the right thing”.

Speaking to the Radio Times she said: ‘It definitely works as a self-contained story and it’s not that you couldn’t open up that story again, there’s the potential for it, but at the moment I don’t know what the version of that is that I would want to do.”

Alice, who previously worked as a director and writer on Sex Education, explained that while she’s not “closing that opportunity off”, she also “needs a breather and a bit of distance” from the gripping drama, adding: “If it comes it comes, and if it doesn’t… let sleeping dogs lie kind of thing.”

What happened in series 1?
