What is BBC's Guilt series two about?
The BBC have teased some details on what viewers can expect from series two, revealing that the four new episodes will pick up from where series one left off.
Steve Carson, Head of Multi-Platform Commissioning, BBC Scotland, said in a statement: "Neil Forsyth's ability to marry comedy and drama together and the brilliant cast that brought his scripts to life made for compelling viewing and made Guilt a must-see moment. With guilt finally catching up with the characters at the end of the last series, who knows what direction Neil will take them in the new series?"
The official synopsis reads: "In an Edinburgh cellar, two gunshots ring out. Across town, Max McCall is released from prison. These two events gradually come together as Max tries to rebuild his life, and new arrival Erin tries to save hers.
"When Roy Lynch rebuffs Max's efforts at a reconciliation, Max turns to Kenny for help - despite their troubled history. However, this is a newly confident Kenny, with a budding new relationship, and he provides Max with a tougher challenge than expected."
