It's unclear at this stage whether the series will return for a third run following the release of season two, especially since McDonald seems determined to leave Bath after two years.
Though this could well be the end for McDonald & Dodd, Gouveia herself did offer some hope: “I think she’s going to fall in love with Bath and I think she’ll stay around for at least seven years. Dodds will find his own birth certificate and realise he’s actually only 42. I mean, I think there’s so much potential in the format, in the relationships.”
