The series, which stars Suranne Jones (<em>Doctor Foster<\/em>, <em>Save Me<\/em>), tells the story of Anne Lister, a woman who had a passion for life and a mind for business and bucked society&#8217;s expectations at every turn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s so exciting that so many people have had such a positive response to Suranne&#8217;s exuberant performance as the brilliant, life-affirming Anne Lister and to Sophie Rundle&#8217;s beautiful performance as her courageous partner, Ann Walker,\u201d said Wainwright. \u201cI&#8217;m utterly delighted that we&#8217;ve been recommissioned, because there are so many more big, bold stories to tell about Anne Lister and Ann Walker.

A huge thank you to the BBC, HBO and Lookout Point for giving us our second series. It\u2019s such amazing and positive news.
