Acclaimed comedy-drama series The Dry will return for a second season to RTÉ One and RTÉ Player next month.
Fans of the first season take note, The Dry will return for your viewing pleasure on 15 May on RTÉ One and RTÉ Payer at 9:35pm
The synopsis for season reveals that the second season will pick up seven months on from the events of the first, and finds the Sheridans in their new normal.
"To all outward appearances, it seems like the family is relatively content: Shiv's been sober, celibate, and solvent for six months, Ant has hung onto his job at the estate agents and his relationship with Max, and Caroline's making up for lost time by shagging everyone she meets on Tinder," the synopsis continues.
"So far, so normal... Or is it? Shiv is determined to get sobriety right this time, to cut the toxic influences out of her life for good. But what if the biggest threat to Shiv's stability turns out to be closer to home? Giving up alcohol is one thing, but what about giving up your family?"
Written by BAFTA-nominated screenwriter Nancy Harris (Dates) and directed by Paddy Breathnach (Viva, Rosie), The Dry is produced by Oscar winning production company Element Pictures (Poor Things, Normal People, The Gallows Pole), a Fremantle company for RTÉ and ITVX, in association with Fís Eireann/Screen Ireland, Coimisiún na Meán and ITV Studios.
Writer-creator Nancy Harris previously said: "I'm so thrilled about this second season of The Dry and to be getting to bring more of the Sheridans back to the screen.
"It's an absolute joy to be back working with this incredible ensemble cast and director Paddy Breathnach, and I'm excited about where the show is going to go this season.
"The characters are all deepening and developing and they all have challenges - it's going to be quite the rollercoaster, and not just for those who are trying to stay sober..."
