Ellis Series 2 – DVD & Digital release details

From Aim Publicity:
Following its critically acclaimed first outing, that proved a ratings winner, Acorn Media International is delighted to announce the return of Ellis – the groundbreaking detective drama that had audiences hooked.
Three-time Olivier Award winner and BAFTA nominated actor Sharon D. Clarke (Mr Loverman, Showtrial, Doctor Who) reprises her role as the inimitable, no nonsense case cracker – DCI Ellis – in the hotly anticipated second series, that arrives on digital 31 March and on DVD 18 May, following its transmission on Channel 5.
Ellis Series 2 finds the detective inspector fresh from her victories in series one as she is once again parachuted in to tackle failing cases across the North of England.
With DS Harper (Andrew Gower – Outlander, Carnival Row, Miss Scarlet and the Duke), by her side, she faces a new wave of fractured communities and mysteries that test not only her forensic brilliance but her resilience too.
From acclaimed writers Paul Logue (Shetland, Vera) and Sian Ejiwunmi-Le Berre (Murder Is Easy), the new series features two gripping cases that peel back layers of silence, ambition and betrayal.
The sharp and driven detective must investigate the suspicious death of a beloved community leader exposing long-held resentments and the death of a young woman that leads to the team uncovering a hidden network of coercion and exploitation.
Our favourite new case cracker is back to take on more seemingly unsolvable killer crimes, but nothing will stop the tenacious Ellis in this must-see gritty detective drama.
SPECIAL FEATURES include:
• Behind the Scenes Featurette
• On Set with Andrew Gower
