Bergerac season 2 returned earlier this month and a slew of new stars have joined the hit detective series
Bergerac‘s series two has a very star-studded cast for its latest season.
Filmed on location in Jersey, the acclaimed programme, which boasts an impressive 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, launched its second series last week (Thursday 16 April).
The programme is a reboot of the iconic Jersey-based crime drama, following troubled detective Jim Bergerac, portrayed by Brassic star Damien Molony.
The original Bergerac television series broadcast during the 1980s, featuring John Nettles as the fictional detective Jim Bergerac. It received a reboot in 2025, with 42-year-old Damien taking on the leading role.
Damien returns in series two as detective Bergerac. Also returning in series two are My Family legend Zoë Wanamaker as Bergerac’s mother-in-law Charlie Hungerford, Robert Gilbert as Barney Crozier and Wild Cherry star Chloé Sweetlove as Kim Bergerac.
