As well as an image showing James Nelson-Joyce's Michael walking down a street, we've also got a quick teaser, which shows glimpses of some of the show's other returning characters.
Soundtracked to the song My Way, the trailer grows darker as it goes on, teasing that we're at the beginning of a "nightmare".

As well as Nelson-Joyce, other cast members returning for season 2 include Hannah Onslow, Jack McMullen, Mike Noble, Julie Graham, Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Adam Abbou, Laura Aikman, Kevin Harvey and Darci Shaw.
Meanwhile, new stars joining the series include Shaun Evans (Betrayal) as former gangster Ozzie Thompson and Álvaro Morte (The Wheel of Time) as Felipe Guzman, a member of the Colombian cartel and younger brother of Ricardo, who was murdered at the end of season 1.
The official synopsis for the new episodes reads: "Picking up from where things were left at the end of series 1, Michael and Diana have barely arrived in Spain when they are dragged back into the fold to answer questions around Ricardo’s death.

"Back in Liverpool, tensions continue to bubble amongst the remaining members of the gang. Meanwhile, an old school gangster from Ronnie's era, recently out of prison, wants compensation from the firm."
Ronnie was played by Sean Bean in season 1, but was killed off early in the show's run.
Speaking at the Radio Times Covers Party, earlier this year Nelson-Joyce teased that Evans "brings a bit of villainy to the show" in his new role and delivers an "amazing" performance, while returning star Noble "is gonna blow everyone away this season".
This City Is Ours season 2 is coming soon to BBC One and iPlayer.
