Following a critically raved first series, Acorn TV and 5 today announce the recommission of ground-breaking detective drama, Inspector Ellis, starring three-time Olivier Award winner Sharon D Clarke and Andrew Gower.

From Company Pictures, in association with All3Media International and Northern Ireland Screen, Season 1 of Inspector Ellis quickly became a beloved fan favorite for the Acorn TV audience with Clarke (Showtrial, Lost Boys & Fairies, Rocketman) receiving praise for her portrayal of DCI Ellis – a detective fighting a system rife with flaws.

On entering the world of Inspector Ellis again for Season 2, Sharon D Clarke says: “I am thrilled to return as DCI Ellis. The response to the first series was overwhelming, and I am excited to continue this journey with such a talented team, especially with the wonderful Andrew Gower by my side. Ellis is a character who resonates deeply, and I can’t wait for audiences to see what we have in store for her and Harper in series two.”

Acorn Media Enterprises (Acorn TV), shares: “Inspector Ellis was an instant fan-favourite for the Acorn TV audience and met with rave reviews from top critics for its elevated and smart storytelling brought to life by the incomparable Sharon D Clarke and Andrew Gower. We could not be more excited to dive in on a second season of unpredictable, edge-of-your-seat cases with this dynamic pair.”

On bringing the hit series back to 5 screens, Paul Testar, Commissioning Editor, Scripted, 5 comments: “Following the huge success of the first series of Ellis, we are thrilled for it to return with the brilliant Sharon D Clarke and Andrew Gower reprising their roles. We can’t wait to bring the detective duo back to the 5 audience next year”.

Michele Buck, CEO, Company Pictures (an All3Media company), adds: “I’m thrilled Ellis has been a success for 5 and Acorn TV and so happy to return for a second series, creating new and engrossing stories for fans and new audiences to watch.”

David Swetman, SVP Content and Commercial Strategy at All3Media International commented: “We’re delighted to reveal the first round of premium global partners bringing Company Pictures’ Ellis to an international audience. With a second season now commissioned, it’s fantastic to bring our clients and their audiences a new slate of compelling mysteries led by the enigmatic and brilliant DCI Ellis – a standout new addition to our distinct and celebrated detective lineup brought to life by an exceptional performance from Sharon D Clarke.”
