Bingeworthy drama branded the “twistiest, most toxic show on TV” finally back on the BBC in the UK

The popular drama *Tell Me Lies*, featuring Tom Ellis and Grace Van Patten, is now available on BBC in the UK. The show is known for its gripping plot and is returning with eight brand new episodes.

Based on Carola Lovering’s 2018 novel, the series tells the story of Lucy Albright and Stephen DeMarco, two New York students who fall in love. Their relationship unfolds over eight years.

The series first launched on Hulu in 2022 and returned last year with a new cast member, Ellis, playing the role of Oliver. However, viewers in the UK haven’t been able to watch the second season – until now!

The second season of *Tell Me Lies* is now streaming on BBC iPlayer after a little over a year’s wait. All eight episodes have been released at once, so you can watch them all back-to-back.

Critics are enjoying the drama so far. The first season has a 75% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 12 reviews. While the second season doesn’t have an overall score yet, all four reviews published so far have been positive.

According to the AV Club, the second season of *Tell Me Lies* immediately re-immerses viewers in the intense drama, starting right after the shocking conclusion of season one as Lucy starts her second year of college.

According to Collider, season two of *Tell Me Lies* might not appeal to all viewers, but fans of the first season will likely find it just as captivating. They describe the show as television’s most twisty and toxic offering.

According to *Decider*, the show is a new kind of ‘guilty pleasure’ – one where everyone is flawed and enjoys watching the drama unfold, given all the old and newly revealed secrets and lies.

Alongside *Tell Me Lies*, another show recently added to BBC iPlayer is *The Newsreader*. The Australian period drama launched its third and final season on the platform earlier this month.

Tell Me Lies is streaming on BBC iPlayer.
