ABC TV has announced that planning is underway for a second series of the critically acclaimed, paranormal drama Glitch from Matchbox Pictures.

Series two will go inside the gates of Noregard Pharmaceuticals and other mysterious places as the Glitch characters explore once again the extremes of what it means to be alive.

ABC head of fiction Carole Sklan said: “The audience response to this brilliant series has been remarkable. We are delighted to be working again with such a wonderfully creative team for this gripping second series.”

We can’t wait to deliver on the promise of all those stories, keep all the thrills and spills coming and bring this drama to a satisfying conclusion.”
