Sky Living have released details of the storylines for the upcoming second series of British supernatural drama Bedlam.
It was announced yesterday that EastEnders star Lacey Turner will lead the show's new cast as Ellie, with Gemma Chan (Secret Diary of a Call Girl) joining the cast as Kate's old friend, Kiera, alongside newcomers Jack Roth and Nikesh Patel.
The official Series 2 synopsis reads: "The new series opens with Ellie (Lacey Turner), a paramedic, who like Jed has struggled to accept her special “ability” to see ghosts. She is a determined girl who's fought hard for a normal life - but instead is flung into an extraordinary world.
"After hearing rumours about Jed from his time spent on the psychiatric ward, she decides to try and track him down, looking for answers. His last known address leads her to Bedlam Heights, where she starts to meet some of the buildings inhabitants – both dead and alive.
"After the dramatic events of the previous series, Molly and Kate (Charlotte Salt) fled the apartment to go travelling across Asia. Kate has now returned home to visit her father, Warren, seeking an explanation she confronts him about the Bettany family secrets. Kate returns to her apartment to find that her father has moved some new tenants in: Dan (Nikesh Petal), her father’s new right hand man and Max (Jack Roth), who works in the newly opened Bedlam Heights Bar.
"Whilst trying to track her father down, Kate bumps into an old friend, Kiera (Gemma Chan), who has also moved into the building. But it’s not long before the new inhabitants start to realise that something strange is going on inside the building, something dark and dangerous."
