Netflix has finally released both seasons of ITV’s hit crime thriller Prey this weekend.
Prey fans are only just realising that season two boasts a stellar ensemble after making its Netflix debut.
More than a decade has passed since British crime thriller Prey last graced ITV screens, and viewers can now revisit both compelling series on Netflix, featuring DS Susan Reinhart (portrayed by Rosie Cavaliero) as she tackles criminal investigations across Manchester.
While the inaugural series focused on a police officer attempting to prove his innocence following his family’s murder, the second instalment follows a prison officer coerced into facilitating an inmate’s escape after his expectant daughter is abducted.
As viewers begin streaming Prey, here’s a comprehensive guide to the second series cast.
