BritBox and ITV period romance Sanditon<\/a> is finally returning for a second season, following a successful fan campaign to revive the drama<\/a> after Sanditon was originally cancelled<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Based on Jane Austen\u2019s incomplete novel about a developing seaside resort, the show tells the story of Charlotte Heywood (Rose Williams), a young woman from a quiet village, and who falls unexpectedly into the dramas, romances, and secrets of Sanditon.<\/p>\n

At the end of season 1, Charlotte had her first taste of heartbreak, after Sidney Parker (Theo James) rejected her in favour of marrying for money \u2013 a blow that is still impacting her in the second season, as seen in the trailer for Sanditon season 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With\u00a0Theo James not returning for the second or third season, it\u2019s not surprising that the cast of characters has since been expanded, with various new eligible young men arriving to Sanditon for season 2. Could one of them mend Charlotte\u2019s heart?<\/p>\n
