href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/liar-series-two-return-date-cast-plot-joanne-froggatt-ioan-gruffudd\/&quot;\">ITV drama Liar<\/a> came to a conclusion back in 2020, it received mixed reactions from viewers, some of whom weren\u2019t so thrilled with the finale.<\/p>\n<p>The second season of the mystery series delved into the murder of surgeon and serial rapist Andrew Earlham (Ioan Gruffudd), teasing several suspects across its six episodes.<\/p>\n<p>In the finale, it was revealed that one of Earlham\u2019s victims, <a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/drama\/fans-react-liar-series-2-ending\/&quot;\">Laura Nielson (Joanne Froggatt), had murdered him<\/a> and left him for dead.<\/p>\n<p>Some fans who were expecting a twist ending were left disgruntled by the finale and labelled it anticlimactic, as Laura was the obvious suspect from the very beginning.<\/p>\n<p>So could there be more episodes of the ITV drama?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unlikely we\u2019ll get any further instalments, according to Liar star Froggatt, who has said season 2 was always going to serve as the show\u2019s ending.<\/p>\n<p>Read on for everything you need to know about the future of ITV drama Liar.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why won\u2019t there be a Liar season 3?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div

target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">The Sun<\/a>\u2019s TV Mag back in 2020, Froggatt said: \u201cI\u2019m proud we\u2019ve done another series. This will be the end of Andrew and Laura\u2019s story. I think it\u2019s really honest with the viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She continued: \u201cThere\u2019s nothing worse than investing your time in something and then you get to season 3 and think, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s all gone too far. I don\u2019t believe it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Responding to fan speculation that Andrew isn\u2019t actually dead, and that he could return for a third outing, Froggatt insisted that he definitely is.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAndrew Earlham is dead. He\u2019s definitely dead! Now Laura is under suspicion and she\u2019s very angry about injustice,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n<p>Writers and creators Harry and Jack Williams also confirmed that Liar was always going to conclude with a second season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you enjoyed series one this is the conclusion,\u00a0we always intended to give it. The same amount of twists, turns, reveals, shocks and secrets exposed with thriller moments,\u201d Jack added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--full=\"\"
