It follows the war through the eyes of ordinary people whose lives have been thrown into chaos
Filming has begun in Northern Ireland on the return of the BBC’s hit World War Two drama. World On Fire tells the story of the war through the eyes of ordinary people whose lives have been thrown into chaos.
Series two will take viewers from the streets of Britain into occupied France, Nazi Germany, and to the sands of the North African desert, where British troops struggle alongside Indian Sappers and Australian Diggers to adapt to a very different kind of combat. The six new episodes are written by series creator Peter Bowker, Rachel Bennette and Matt Jones.
World On Fire creator and writer Peter Bowker said: “The second season of World On Fire has been a long wait due to a certain pandemic and this makes the beginning of filming especially exciting. It has been a real joy to pick up the story with our inspirational cast, both our established regulars and new and exciting talent who have embraced the show’s scale and ambition.
