A HIT Channel 4 show is making a come back tonight for a new series after it was off screen for a year.<\/p>\n
Fans of prison drama Screw have been eagerly awaiting its return after last season's cliffhanger\u00a0ending.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Now, it's been revealed that Screw will return for a new season tonight on Channel 4 at 9pm. <\/p>\n
The drama series follows the brutal and sometimes darkly funny reality of life as a prison officer at a men\u2019s prison.<\/p>\n
Season one saw Rose Gill, played by Derry Girls star Jamie-Lee O'Donnell, join the prison staff as a loud-mouthed guard fresh out of training, who is taken under the wing of veteran prison officer Leigh, played by\u00a0Good Omens\u00a0star Nina Sosanya.<\/p>\n
Season two of Screw will see the officers and inmates face more suspicion and\u00a0paranoia as rumours float that one convict is actually an undercover police officer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With tensions high among staff and inmates, one newcomer feels out of place as Patrick, played by Lee Ingleby struggles to fit in.<\/p>\n
Eagle eyes viewers may recognise Lee Ingleby from a number of hit shows, including Inspector George Gently, Criminal: UK, The A Word and The Hunt for Raoul Moat.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Screw was filmed at a real prison on the east coast of Scotland that was historically referred to as \u2018Scotland's gulag\u2019.<\/p>\n
The prison operated from 1888-2013 and could hold around 400 prisoners – it was also a specialist centre for sex offenders. Since the prison closed it has operated as a museum.<\/p>\n
