Here’s what Apple TV+ say about The Buccaneers season 2:
In the first season of “The Buccaneers,” a group of fun-loving young American girls exploded into the tightly corseted London of the 1870s … setting hearts racing and kicking off an Anglo-American culture clash. Now the Buccaneers are no longer the invaders — England is their home. In fact, they’re practically running the place. Nan is the Duchess of Tintagel, the most influential woman in the country. Conchita is Lady Brightlingsea, heroine to a wave of young American heiresses. And Jinny is on every front page, wanted for the kidnapping of her unborn child. All of the girls have been forced to grow up and now have to fight to be heard, as they wrestle with romance, lust, jealousy, births and deaths … themes consuming all women of any age, no matter what year it is. Last time we got a taste of England. This time we’re in for a veritable feast.
Season 2 is written by series creator Katherine Jakeways. The directors are William McGregor, Rachel Leiterman, John Hardwick and Charlie Manton. The series comes from The Forge Entertainment for Apple TV+.
The show begins its run at Apple TV+ on Wednesday, 18th June 2025, dropping weekly episodes.
