In the first episode, Elliot and Helen travel to Ireland following an invitation from Tommy, an old acquaintance. They seek insights into Elliot’s forgotten past. However, upon arrival, the duo is abruptly divided as Elliot is forcefully abducted.

Confined in a secret place, he confronts the McDonnell family, his past adversaries harbouring deep-seated grudges. They demand retribution for deeds Elliot has no memory of.

Alongside Jamie Dornan and Danielle Macdonald, the cast of The Tourist series two includes Olwen Fouéré, Conor MacNeill, Greg Larsen, Victoria Haralabidou, Mark McKenna, Nessa Matthews and Diarmaid Murtagh

Jamie Dornan said of series two: “I hope they enjoy it as much as the first. We are offering up something a bit different purely by geography. I feel like the colour of the Outback, the scale of it and fear was a major character in the first series. We’ve taken that away this time and we have suddenly gone from the orangey dirt of the Outback to the lush green settings of Ireland.

“Particularly with the first episode, it’s like a Tourism Ireland advert. It’s different and I hope that people are on board with that and get the same sort of satisfaction as they did from the first series. The humour is all there, and the story is as mad as the first series.”
