Is Innocent a repeat on ITV?
Your complete guide to the returning ITV drama starring Lee Ingleby and Hermione Norris.
Popular 2018 drama series Innocent has returned to our screens for a week of repeats ready to recapture your attention.

Innocent season 2: Will the series return?
Back in 2018, star Lee Ingleby told RadioTimes.com, "I think it’s a self-contained thing" while his co-star Daniel Ryan said: "It’s a one-off."
However, in May 2019, screenwriter Chris Lang announced a second season - with an all-new cast and story - had been commissioned in a tweet.

Little is known about the second season, and all production will have halted given the circumstances, but the fact that ITV are re-running episodes suggests the project remains very much in the pipeline.
