‘Vigil’ Season 2 Gets December UK Premiere Date On BBC
The BBC has set a UK premiere date for ‘Vigil‘ Season 2, which sees Suranne Jones and Rose Leslie return alongside new cast members Romola Garai, Dougray Scott, and more.
Having spent most of the first season underwater in a submarine, in a brand-new investigation, Amy Silva (Jones) and Kirsten Longacre (Leslie) look to the skies as they enter the secret world of drone warfare to catch a killer.
