Gentleman Jack is a co-production between BBC One and HBO. The series premiered in the United States on April 22, 2019, and in the United Kingdom on May 19, 2019, respectively. The BBC announced on May 23rd that it had been renewed for a second season.
Gentleman Jack season 2 Plot
Towards the end of the first eight-part series, Anne Lister and Ann Walker exchanged marriage vows. As a result, the new series follows the couple as they settle into their new home in Shibden Hall. Because the story takes place in 1830s Yorkshire, it’s unlikely that they will be able to live a quiet married life together, especially given the fact that their relationship continues to raise controversy.
Previously, writer Sally Wainwright indicated that there are plenty of “huge, strong stories” to be told about the two, and she wasn’t wrong.
According to the BBC: “Yorkshire, the year 1834. All eyes are on Anne Lister and Ann Walker as they prepare to settle into their new home at Shibden Hall as husband and wife, intending to merge their estates and establish themselves as a power couple in the process. Locals are terrified of Anne Lister’s business spirit as much as they are of her unusual love life, and with Halifax on the verge of revolution, her refusal to maintain a low profile becomes controversial and perhaps hazardous for the city.”
