Tennantā€™s future with the show was in doubt after it was announced that he would be starring in the US remake of the show, which will be known as Gracepoint. Jodie Whittaker, Andrew Buchan and Arthur Darvill will also return to the show.

ITVā€™s Director of Drama Steve November and Controller of Drama Victoria Fea have commissioned the new series. ā€œWeā€™re delighted Broadchurch is back in production, but weā€™re remaining tight-lipped about how the story develops,ā€ said Steve.Ā  ā€œSuffice to say Chris has delivered as always and the scripts are just as exciting as the first series.ā€

A return date for the series is yet to be confirmed but as soon as we know weā€™ll of course share the news with you.
