Slightly confusing

starts Monday 1st. E2 is Tuesday 2nd the 3456 will be on Sundays

The Tourist season 2 will see Jamie Dornan return as Elliot as the story comes to Ireland.

With the action switching from Australia's Outback to Ireland, the landscape looks very different from when we last saw Elliot. But whether he's running away from some mysterious pursuers or covered in blood, his situation doesn't seem to have improved too much!

The Tourist season 2 plot
The first series started with 'The Man' — whose name was revealed to be Elliot — waking up in Australia with total amnesia before he and Constable Helen Chambers (Danielle Macdonald) became embroiled in a cat-and-mouse game with mysterious figures chasing them across Australia.

The BBC has confirmed the new series will see Helen accompanying Elliot back to Ireland as he tries to rediscover his roots, where they soon find themselves dragged into the dangerous whirlwind of his past life. An official synopsis reads...

"After their adventure in the Australian Outback, The Tourist’s epic second series follows Dornan and Macdonald’s characters Elliot and Helen as they travel to Ireland together.

In an attempt to rediscover Elliot’s roots following his memory loss, they’re dragged into the dangerous whirlwind of his past life and are confronted by friends and foes both old and new, including Niamh Cassidy (Olwen Fouéré) and the McDonnell family – Donal (Diarmaid Murtagh), Orla (Nessa Matthews), Fergal (Mark McKenna), and Frank (Francis Magee).
"Detective Ruairi Slater (Conor MacNeill) becomes embroiled in the crossfire between the McDonnells and the Cassidys as the secrets of the family rivalry unravel."

I have just finished it. Thought it was great I think I preferred it to series 1. I am Irish so recognised some of the actors from the stage and and was delighted to see them on screen. (Bit of trivia the guy who found the grandsons gun in the bag is the son of Ronnie Drew from the Dubliners).

Thought the ending was clever, leaving it wide open for series 3. I think the comedy element works well very Fargoish.
Most exciting bit was realising the Irish College was filmed a 10min walk from my house. Raging I never knew I would have been stalking the place to get a look at Mr Dornan

They obviously kept filming quiet @Dulra

Which is unusual as often local
Peeps know

Is Ruari the brother of Dec (Ant &Dec?) In real,life? Or am i imagining similarities?
Loved it, so bonkers!

@Blondeshavemorefun They definitely did because a lot of it was filmed in the area where I live Dublin/Wicklow and I never heard a thing about it until Jamie Dornan mentioned the filming locations on Graham Norton.

Definitely not brothers but maybe a cousin can't find anything on it

I love the rauri actor - anyone recommend anything else he’s done?

@Newgirls He was in this but played a very different type of character so not sure it would be to your taste. It's a brilliant drama but not an easy watch as it's based on a true story

I wonder what no spoilers means. Does it mean reveal the ending, you twats?
It's a terrible series and now I know what's going to happen so it'll be even worse.
