The Australian comedy has proved a hit since it landed on BBC iPlayer in the UK, but is a second season in the works?
Comedy fans in the UK were bowled over by Australian series Colin From Accounts when it first debuted on the BBC earlier this year.
The show was written by husband and wife Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer, who also star in the series as Ashley and Gordon, two single people living in Australia who are brought together by an injured dog.
When they end up looking after the dog following a car accident and calling him Colin, they grow close, with the final episode seeing the pair finally admitting their feelings to one another.
But will there be a second season to pick back up with Ashley, Gordon and Colin? Read on for everything you need to know about Colin From Accounts season 2.
Will there be a season 2 of Colin From Accounts?

We don’t yet know whether Colin From Accounts will get a second season, but stars Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer have both said they’re hopeful for another outing.
However, as Brammall is a member of the Writers Guild of America, and Dyer has stated she wants to become, development on season 2 has been put on hold by the ongoing writers’ strike.
Dyer told Variety in May 2023: “We’re hoping for a pickup for Season 2, and if we were sitting in Sydney we wouldn’t think twice about writing it, but the feeling is very much that, if I ever want to be a WGA member — and I do — don’t open your computer.”
With the show’s future currently in limbo, we’ll keep this page updated once we have any further news on a potential season 2.
When would Colin From Accounts season 2 be released?

It’s hard to say when Colin From Accounts season 2 would be released, not only because it has not been confirmed, but also because of the ongoing writers’ strike.
Depending on how long the strike goes on, the earliest we are likely to get Colin From Accounts season 2 would be the second half of 2024 – although it could be substantially later if the dispute remains unresolved for some time.
We’ll keep this page updated if and when there are any developments.
