The final episode of The Outlaws aired tonight on BBC One, with Stephen Merchant\u2019s dark comedy wrapping up season one after six gripping episodes.<\/p>\n

While the crime drama, which featured a star-studded cast<\/a> including Christopher Walken and Eleanor Tomlinson, will be gone from the TV schedules for a little while, it will be back for season two at some point, as the BBC renewed The Outlaws for another run earlier on this year.<\/p>\n

Teasing tonight\u2019s episode, Merchant took to Twitter to say that the finale would be airing on BBC One, before saying that the whole of season two has already been filmed and will be arriving on our screens at some point in the future.<\/p>\n
