The writers of BBC One’s The Missing, Jack and Harry Williams, are apparently in talks with the BBC about making a follow-up.

Starring James Nesbitt (The Hobbit), Frances O’Connor (Mr Selfridge) and Tcheky Karyo (GoldenEye), the eight-part abduction thriller is currently airing on Tuesday nights on BBC One with around 7.7 million viewers tuning in each week.

Jack Williams told The Guardian: “[A second season] is in negotiations, I think that’s fair to say.”

He added: “It’s definitely something we are keen to do and [the BBC] feel like they’re keen to do but to say any more may be too difficult.”
