The first season of BBC’s Cheaters was a breath of fresh air in the rom-com genre last year. Finally, here was a show that balanced realistic bonking, shock twists and convincing performances. Cheaters series one had the silliness of Russell Tovey gem Him & Her from the 2010, combined with the wit and astute observations of a show like Big Boys. And there were lust-worthy interiors to top it all off.
Season two continues the story from where we started: with central characters Josh (Joshua McGuire) and Fola (Susan Wokoma). In season one, an airport meet-cute turned into a fling. And then, in true rom-com fashion, it turned out they were neighbours. And both were in relationships: Josh engaged, and Fola married.
