This City Is Ours is one of the most eagerly awaited crime dramas on British television. The Season, renewed for its 2022 release, has generated more interest due to the initial excellent reception of Season 1 and its success and critical acclaim. Season 2 is expected to build upon this success with additional intense rivalries, betrayals, and loyalty among family members and added gritty street-level drama, as well as an escalating gang war surrounding the city of Liverpool.
This City Is Ours Season 2 Current Status
As of now, there is no confirmed announcement regarding “This City Is Ours” Season 2 being specifically for release in March 2026. The BBC’s crime thriller show’s original cast members (Sean Bean, James Nelson-Joyce, and others) have been renewed for Season 2 prior to May 2025. Filming will begin in October 2025 in Liverpool and Spain. It is currently set to air sometime in 2026 on BBC One and iPlayer, with sources such as Radio Times, BBC, Deadline, and Wikipedia reporting that it will likely come out sometime in “early 2026” or just “in 2026.”
No specific date has been provided for the official release of Season Two.
The first season was released on March 23rd, 2025 (with certain international listings indicating a March 5th+ US streaming premiere), leading to some confusion.
As of late February 2026, more current information indicates that production of the second season is still ongoing. Many news sources refer to Season Two returning “later this year” or “in 2026,” without reference to March specifically.
Many fans are speculating about a March 23rd date; however, the date seems to reflect birthdays or other events of the first season or the second season’s desire to return, not facts.
For viewers in the U.S., they will see the first season premiere on AMC+ starting March 5, 2026 (once a week until April 23), but that would be for the first season only.
As always, viewers in the UK (or anyone who can watch the BBC) should stay tuned for any announcements from the BBC, as they will provide specifics about the exact date. However, no information should exist at this time.
