BBC Returning To ‘The Split’ With Barcelona-Set Special
deadline.comThe final season may have concluded in 2022 but the BBC isn’t letting go of legal drama The Split just yet, with a Barcelona-set special greenlit three months after a Manchester spin off.
Abi Morgan‘s show ended in 2022 after three seasons but the BBC has since ordered The Split Up in February and is now heading to Spain for a two-parter with Nicola Walker‘s Hannah and family, while Toby Stephens is set to join the cast.
