The series is based on Holly Jackson’s award-winning 2019 novel and starring Emma Myers, who has previously starred in Netflix series Wednesday.

Myers will return as Pip Fitz-Amobi alongside Zain Iqbal as Ravi Singh, with the rest of the cast to be announced as filming commences.

The second season has been confirmed as a six-part series and will be adapted and written by Holly Jackson and Poppy Cogan, but is expected to bring viewers back to Pip after she solved the Andie Bell case.

This time, Pip‘s world has been transformed by her actions, and not always for the better.

Pip is determined to fix the fallout – and stay away from any more investigations.

Yet as Max Hastings’ trial approaches, key witness Jamie Reynolds suddenly disappears and Pip finds herself in a race against time to find him.

This new mystery will take Pip to unexpected places as she struggles with the idea of justice, straying even further from the ‘good girl’ she once was.

The first series of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder became a huge hit when it premiered in summer 2024, becoming BBC Three’s highest rating drama since its relaunch and one of BBC iPlayer’s most watched titles with 16-24 years old.

Writer Holly Jackson said: “I am BEYOND thrilled that we can continue Pip’s story and, this time, I’m writing on the show!

“We owe everything to the dedicated fans, and I can’t wait to reunite with my AGGGTM family!”

“It is testament to Holly Jackson’s brilliant novels, Poppy Cogan’s screen adaptation and our fantastic cast led by Emma Myers that we are be able to bring A Good Girl’s Guide back for a second series for the BBC, Netflix and ZDFneo.”

Lindsay Salt, Director of BBC Drama, says: “It’s been a joy to see the fantastic response to A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, particularly from younger viewers.

“We’re thrilled to once again join forces with Holly, Poppy, Emma, Zain and the team to bring this next exciting chapter to BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.”

A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder series one is available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
