Both shows – as well as Empire, which is yet to cross the Atlantic – have been given the green light ahead of renewal season later this year.

After a strong first season, Batman prequel Gotham, starring Ben McKenzie and Jada Pinkett-Smith, will return for a second run, while police station-set comedy Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been given the go-ahead for a third season.

New musical TV series Empire, which centres around hip-hop company Empire Enterprises, has also been renewed after just two episodes.

Fox TV Group chairmen Dana Walden and Gary Newman made the announcement during the network’s TCA presentation.
