Cheaters cast and episode guide for season 2 as series returns to BBC

BBC One’s Unfaithful Few is back with a new comedy-drama series Cheaters.

This time we ask the tricky question: can cheaters thrive?

The first series, broadcast in 2022, saw strangers Josh (Joshua McGuire) and Fola (Susan Wokoma) have a one-night stand in Finland when their flight was delayed, then return to England to their respective partners, and the discovery that they are. neighbors.

Written by Oliver Lyttleton, the second season picks up a few months after the end of the first as Josh and Fola’s relationship appears to be blossoming.

Fola is keen to take things slow as her divorce isn’t finalized, while Josh finds himself going to extreme lengths to “give her some space”.

Petra Fried, from producers Clerkenwell Films, said: “With the same team in front of and behind the camera, it’s great to have our Cheaters back on the BBC, giving us the opportunity to see whether the two sets of neighbors are managing their newly aligned relationships – and also introducing us to some intriguing newcomers, who viewers will meet in due course…”
