The official synopsis for Season 2 reads: “Six months have passed since the returned gathered one night, before disappearing into the mountain, taking Simon, Camille and her mother, Julie and the mysterious little Victor with them. Since then there has been no news of them.

“Today, Adele is about to give birth to Simon’s child. Part of the city is still flooded. The dam was under surveillance, and the army provides logistical support to the people who made the choice to stay. Rumours circulated about a return of the dead, but the authorities didn’t believe it. The few witnesses have stayed silent.

“Among them are Lena and her father Jerome, who have not given up on finding Camille and Claire. An unknown man arrives in the town. His name is Berg, and he seems to know more than he lets on. It is then that a new wave of resurrections happens…”

The Returned – titled Les Revenants in France – debuted on Channel 4 in 2013.
