The Trailer for 'Time' Season 2 Brings Three Very Different Women Together
BritBox has released the trailer for the star-studded second season of its prison drama Time, which aims to continue the first's exploration of the struggles and harsh realities of inmates within the British prison system through a whole new set of characters.
The three-part series will switch its focus to life inside a women's prison and the story of three different inmates who are imprisoned there. It stars Doctor Who alum Jodie Whittaker as Orla O'Riordan, a single mother of three whose financial troubles have landed her behind bars. (Fun fact: Time Season 2 is the first post-Doctor role most Americans will see Whittaker in, as the Paramount+ U.K. original One Night has yet to find a U.S. broadcast home.) Tamara Lawrance (The Long Song) plays Abi Cochrane, an inmate three years into serving a life sentence for a crime she's doing her best to keep hidden. And Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us) plays Kelsey Moran, a troubled, pregnant 19-year-old with a surprisingly long history of drug addiction.
Thrown together in an unfamiliar world notable only for its ever-present threat of violence, the new prisoners struggle to find a rhythm to a life behind bars, but the unexpected connection between them allows them to create a sense of community, even though all three women come from starkly different backgrounds and experiences.
