Fans have been promised more twist and turns as the second series returns this weekend

Bloodlands star James Nesbitt has promised fans that they can expect more twist and turns as the second series sets to air on BBC on Sunday.

"The fact that the audience starts off knowing that I am Goliath I think is really interesting. The audience knows something that no one else does. I think that gives you a really interesting kind of platform to take Tom on his relationship with an audience but also to see how the chinks in his facade begin to happen.

"To create such a character, for all intents and purposes, he is a policeman who is a murderer, a liar but someone who, I think, you are intrigued by, you can also see the human side to him, the relationship with his daughter, the pain that he has felt in his life, the disappearance of his wife," the NI actor added.

"You are looking to be in the moment and Tom, funnily enough, is someone I really grew to love," he said. "You have to in a sense if you are playing him or relatively find the saving graces in there somewhere. You have to understand the writing and the director - it is such a collaborative process for me.

James is a strong advocate for the incredible work going on in the Northern Ireland film and TV industry and is delighted that by working on a show such as Bloodlands, filmed and set in Northern Ireland, they are able to highlight what we have to offer here across the world.
