Channel Seven has announced its acclaimed drama A Place to Call Home has been commissioned for a second series. 

Brad Lyons, Director of Network Production, said the decision reaffirmed Seven’s commitment to local drama. “A Place to Call Home has showcased drama on a scale never seen before on Australian television,” he said. “It’s pleasing to see such an ambitious production receive the acclaim it deserves.”

The 1950s drama was created by Bevan Lee for the Seven Network. “The story of A Place to Call Home is far from told by the end of series one,” Bevan stated. “So I am thrilled we are able to continue the saga of Sarah Adams and the Bligh family in a second compelling season, thanks to the show being enthusiastically embraced by our fans.”

Pre-production on S2 is already under way with shooting to commence later this year.
