The first image from season two of Rose Matafeo\u2019s hit rom-com series Starstruck has been released, ahead of the show\u2019s return on the new BBC Three broadcast channel next month.<\/p>\n

The image, which can be seen above, shows Jessie (Matafeo) and her famous love interest Tom Kapoor (Nikesh Patel) sharing a glance in the mirror as they brush their teeth.<\/p>\n

Co-written by Matafeo, Alice Snedden, and Nic Sampson, the second season will once again consist of six half-hour episodes picking up where the romance left off at the end of the debut run.<\/p>\n

According to a synopsis, the new episodes will find Jessie dealing with the real-world consequences of her grand gesture at the end of season one, when she decided to stay in East London and pursue a relationship with Tom, rather than sticking to her original plan of returning home to New Zealand.<\/p>

Season two will also see Years and Years star Russell Tovey join the cast in an as-yet-undisclosed role, while Minnie Driver <\/i>reprises her role as Tom\u2019s agent Cath.<\/p>\n

The first season, which debuted last year, was a big critical success and was streamed almost 5 million times on BBC iPlayer \u2013 making it the channel\u2019s biggest new comedy of 2021.<\/p>\n
