EastEnders icon Danny Dyer’s BAFTA-winning series return date revealed – and it’s soon

Danny Dyer, star of EastEnders and Rivals, will soon be back on our screens in the second season of his Sky comedy series Mr Bigstuff – and we don’t have long to wait.

That’s because Mr Bigstuff season 2 will officially debut on Sky and NOW on Thursday 24th July, meaning there’s only about two weeks left to wait.

Dyer will be back as Lee Campbell in season 2, while Ryan Sampson, who is also the creator of the series, will be returning to play his estranged brother Glen. Harriet Webb is also back as Kirsty.

The official synopsis for season 2 says that it “picks up two weeks after the shock news that the brothers’ dad’s not actually dead, and Lee and Glen are handling it very differently”.

The synopsis continues: “But, with chaos mounting and questions piling up, the brothers unite on a mission to track him down. Meanwhile, Kirsty’s taking charge in the bedroom and the boardroom, but one badly timed kiss – and a mysterious blackmailer – threaten to bring it all crashing down.

“With secrets spilling and tempers flaring, it’s only a matter of time before the family blows up – again.”

Dyer won the BAFTA TV Award for Male Performance in a Comedy for his role in the first season, so anticipation is high for season 2.

Not only will it see the return of the central trio – as well as Adrian Scarborough, Fatiha El-Ghorri, Victoria Alcock, Ned Dennehy and Clive Russell in supporting roles – but season 2 will also feature new guest stars including Rula Lenska, Shaun Williamson, Tom Hanson, Parth Thakerar, Shobna Gulati, David Mumeni, Alan Ford and Linda Henry.

Sampson previously teased Dyer and Henry’s reunion on the series, after they both starred in EastEnders, calling Henry “amazing” and saying the new season would be “spicy”.
