Speaking to the BBC’s Nihal Arthanayake in the past hour, Bennett said the spin-off would focus on the character of Jaq Lawrence, who is played by Jasmine Jobson. Starring Ashley Walters, Kano and a young ensemble cast, Netflix resuscitated the show with Drake’s help after it was canceled by Channel 4 after two seasons, and three more aired on the streamer between 2019 and last year, attracting acclaim and strong ratings. Jobson was BAFTA nominated for her role in Ben Whishaw-starrer Surge and played major parts in the BBC’s Noughts + Crosses and ITV’s Platform 7.
