What can we expect from Criminal Record season 2

The latest press release tells us the eight-episode second season will premiere globally on Wednesday, April 22 on Apple TV with the first episode, followed by one episode weekly until Wednesday, June 10.

The show is described as:

a powerful, character-driven drama set in the heart of contemporary London, exploring the impossibility of policing when the truth is up for grabs.

In season two, when a young man is stabbed to death at a political rally, rival police officers June Lenker (Cush) and Daniel Hegarty (Capaldi) are forced into an uneasy alliance. But what starts as a hunt for a murderer escalates into an undercover operation to foil a far-right bomb plot in the heart of London.

Season two reunites Capaldi as Detective Chief Inspector Daniel Hegarty and Jumbo as Detective Sergeant June Lenker. Dustin Demri-Burns, Luca Pasqualino, Luther Ford, Lyndsey Marshal and Peter Sullivan join the cast in addition to the returning ensemble that includes Shaun Dooley, Stephen Campbell Moore and Charlie Creed-Miles.
