Just finished filming it, apparently. C4 will show it, but no date confirmed yet

Confusingly there is also an American-English language version showing on Netflix now:

(not watched it myself, suspect it will be pants)

...which is itself a return of the returned.
Oh boy. Their one for the first series is my favourite of theirs and my favourite by anyone from the last few years. I'll try not to salivate too much as I'll inevitably be disappointed if I do.
Yep, they seemed to step up a level writing a proper score.
I was in heaven. One of my favourite bands, at their peak of writing, with a style of drama that I love. And I'm a bit of a Francophile to boot.
Can't wait for the second series... Will be a highlight of the year I'm expecting.

The Guardian says it's not all that. http://www.theguardian.com/culture/2015/mar/09/the-returned-american-adaption-french-tv-show
Thought there would have been a bit more fanfare around it.

Trust me to get things the wrong way round! Been watching "The Returned" on Netflix and thinking it is rather good, only to discover it is rubbish and I should be getting into the original French version. Ho hum, one thing at a time.

If you can explain how he didn't have to be, you'd make a fortune.
The village was always there. Remember the scene with Adele and the class of children when she explains how you can see the church spire when the reservoir is low.
The final scene is just that the reservoir is almost fully drained so the ruins of the village are on display.

Ah, yeah... I got that the actual physical ruins of the old village was there always under the water in the dam, what I meant when I said that 'it seemed like the old village returned' was that it could be seen as some sort of strange phenomenon/psychic energy imprint from the past spilling over into the present- everything that was going on with the zombies, and so on... and because the intensity just grew, the emergence of the ruins under the water was sort of symbolical, an omen- 'now it's happening again', sort of thing... (?)not sure yet exactly how to interpret things, but...))
Looking forward to the new episodes! Wondering if some of them will switch sides re: the 'good' and 'bad' axis, too- a lot of the characters are ambigous enough and their agendas all over the place... julie's weird blindness to creepy zombie boy's quest for vengeance, for example... the guy who killed the boy posing as mr. nice to everyone else... the dysfunctional relationship between lena and her returned from the dead twin... it feels like anything can happen at this point (which is always a good sign, i think)

Mogwai?
E2a - after checking...the last one came out two months after the French show finished, and two or three before it started over here. So that could well mean by the end of the year.
E2aa - I've just seen that they brought out a 'signature whisky' last year! I'm not sure if that makes me love them more, or be really disappointed.

It is mentioned in the Les Revs wiki, with a proper reference and everything, so I assume it's true.
