Gentleman Jack, a BBC One lesbian drama, has released the first pictures from its upcoming second season. After debuting in 2019, the show instantly became a fan favourite among the LGBTQ+ community for its queer themes and storylines.
It is based on Anne Lister, an LGBTQ+ icon and diarist dubbed ‘the first modern lesbian’, who lived in the 1800s and wrote stories about her relationships with women in secret code.
Set in Yorkshire with Suranne Jones (Doctor Foster) playing the lead, it tells the story of her character’s affair with Ann Walker (Sophie Rundle).
The first season was met with critical acclaim and was renewed for a second just days after its first episode aired in the UK in May 2019.
