OHMYGOSSIP — Dolly Alderton wants a second series of ‘Everything I Know About Love.’
The 33-year-old journalist adapted her best-selling memoir into a BBC drama series about a group of girls battling through their early 20s – which premiered on BBC One in June 2022 – and is keen for the show to be renewed so she can explore the characters as they age further.
She said: “I would love there to be a season 2. The book is about your 20s, we were honing in on a very specific bit, but the difference between a 24-year-old and a 27-year-old is enormous, it’s like dog years.”
The series stars former ‘Traitors’ actress Emma Appleton as a fictionalised version of the author alongside Bel Powley as best friend Birdy, Aliyah Odoffin as Amara, and Marli Siu as Nell, with Dolly going on to explain that she is “desperate” to go further with the characters she has created.
She told RadioTimes.com: “So I feel like there are so many things that I want to know about the girls – I want to know more about Nell’s family, I want to know more about Amara’s love life. There are just so many things that I’m desperate to get into with all four of them. So I would love another series.”
Meanwhile, her thoughts were echoed by lead actress Emma, 30, who stressed that all four of the main girls are keen to get back to their characters and labelled the first series as simply an “introduction” to them.
She said: “We all definitely want there to be a second series. The first series is an introduction to these characters. There’s so many places the show could go. I don’t know what necessarily I want my character to be doing [in a second season].”
