Will there be a second season of The Flatshare?

Paramount + has yet to announce whether the rom-com will return for a second series. We are keeping our ears to the ground, so keep checking back for further updates. 

While it's not clear whether the streaming platform has commissioned another season, it's clear that the cast had a great time filming it, so we wouldn't be surprised if they sign on for more!

On playing Tiffany, Jessica said: "It was really refreshing for me to let loose in that way on screen. I found her incredibly relatable and it was joyful.

"I found everything about it and the way we built her up - everything from costume, makeup, the way she interacted with people and even the way she wrote notes - just so expressive. There really wasn't anything I couldn't try and I found that really freeing to physically embody someone so fully."

Paramount + has yet to announce another series

Luckily, fans of Beth O'Leary can expect to see more of the writer's novels brought to life on-screen as her most recent book, The No-Show, has been picked up by the same production company behind His Dark Materials. 

Chatting to HELLO! and other journalists at a Q&A, Beth said: "There are some exciting things on the cards. It was announced recently that The No-Show, my most recent novel has been optioned by [production company] Bad Wolf, which is really exciting. It's a crazy and exciting journey, writing a story and finding that other people find ways to take it in a different direction and do something new with it."
