The new season of the BBC series based on Holly Jackson's novels will arrive on BBC iPlayer on Wednesday 27 May, ahead of a transmission on BBC One and BBC Three on a date to be confirmed.

The new season will see Emma Myers back as Pip, determined to fix the fallout of the Andie Bell case and stay away from any more investigations.

The synopsis for season 2 says: "As Max Hastings’ (Henry Ashton) trial approaches, Connor’s (Jude Morgan-Collie) brother Jamie (Eden H Davies) suddenly disappears, and Pip finds herself in a race against time to find him."

Returning stars alongside Myers, Morgan-Collie and Ashton will be Zain Iqbal, Asha Banks and Yali Topol Margalith.

Meanwhile, new additions to the cast alongside Davies include Misia Butler, Jack Rowan, Anna Brindle, Peter Sullivan, Freddie Thorp, Lu Corfield, Stephanie Street and Freddie England.

When the new cast members were confirmed, Jackson, who is a writer on the series as well as the author of the books, said in a statement: "I'm so excited to welcome some new and incredibly talented actors into the AGGGTM family. Eden is sensational as our Jamie, his presence felt throughout, even though he’s missing.

"Misia is the perfect Stanley Forbes, delivering a truly heart-wrenching performance. And Jack as Charlie Green is simply extraordinary: I had to stand and clap at the monitors. Just you wait."

A Good Girl's Guide to Murder season 2 will arrive on BBC iPlayer on Wednesday 27 May. Season 1 is available to stream on BBC iPlayer and Netflix. Sign up for Netflix from £5.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream.
