What happens in tonight’s episode?

One of the year’s least joyful airport reunions occurs as Michael picks up Diana on her return from Spain – but does she know the whole story?

Meanwhile, Ozzie Thompson cares not, preferring to stir the emotions of poor Freddie into torching assorted Phelan businesses, in turn leaving the family firm vulnerable when Dennis threatens to pull out of the deal.

With loyalties being tested and the Phelan business facing fresh uncertainty, the latest episode looks set to deliver another tense night of Liverpool crime drama.

What happens in This City Is Ours series 2?

The second series picks up where the first left off, with Michael and Diana more in love than ever as they arrive in their Spanish Happy Town.

However, their new life is short-lived. They are soon dragged back into the criminal world to answer questions surrounding Ricardo’s death, while a new Colombian threat emerges in the shape of Felipe.

Back in Liverpool, a coup within the Phelan firm sends the business into disarray. Things become even more complicated with the arrival of Ozzie Thompson, a newly released old-school gangster from Ronnie’s past who is looking for compensation or revenge.

The new series also explores Rachel’s growing frustration at being sidelined by the men in the business, as she looks to make her own mark.

What have the cast said about series 2?

Names Jeson-Joyce, who plays Michael, has spoken about the character’s complicated choices as the new series begins.

He says: “At the end of the first series Michael had decided that he wanted to choose a life with Diana, and they left for Spain. At the beginning of series two, that’s where we find them, in Happy Town, and it’s picture-perfect. Then something happens that drags Michael back to Liverpool, and once again, he has to choose between Diana and his other life – he’s a complex mix of ruthless and vulnerable”.

Laura Aikemen, who plays Rachel, has also discussed her character’s determination to fight for a bigger role in the business.

She says: “Rachel has been ignored by the men in the business for years. In series one she was just starting to get a seat at the table, and then she was pushed aside again. At the end of the first series, you saw her make a little side deal with Jamie (Jack McMullen). At the beginning of two, Rachel is angry! And she’s ready to go”
