Fans have been eagerly awaiting more information on series two of Liar, filming for which began in April last year.
The six-part show is due to pick up where series one left off, following the discovery of rapist Andrew Earlham’s body.
Starting three weeks after police issued a warrant for Earlham’s (Ioan Gruffudd) arrest for sexually assaulting 19 women, series two will see Detective Renton (played by Katherine Kelly from Cheat) and DS Rory Maxwell (Danny Webb) searching for clues about Andrew’s past as they piece together the final three weeks of his life.
