The wait is almost over!

Ever since the first look at season two of Gentleman Jack was released, I’ve been obsessing over the show and what fate could await the characters in this next chapter. In no particular order, here is what I’m hoping to see occur in the coming episodes.
The newlyweds
Season one ended with not one but two weddings. I’m anxiously awaiting what Samuel Washington will do next now that he’s starting to uncover the lies of his new son-in-law. But more importantly, how will our favourite lesbian power couple navigate their plans to move in together after their own secret wedding?
Anne’s glances to the camera
Suranne Jones’ cheeky eyebrow raises to the camera are truly butterfly inducing. I could never get enough of them!
Marian’s patience being tested
It’s never easy being the little sister to the ultimate lesbian icon. Gemma Whelan does a phenomenal job at portraying Marian’s struggles with living within Anne’s shadow. More eye rolls please!
Will we see more of Anne abroad?
I loved seeing Anne THRIVING in Denmark at the Queen’s birthday ball. Could we see more of this in the coming season, this time with her new bride by her side?
Former flames
In season one, we saw Anne reunited with her former flame Mariana Lawton. Despite the breakup, Mariana is still envious of those who capture Anne’s heart. It seems Ann Winters may not be the only rival Mariana has to obsess over. The second instalment of the show will introduce Isabella “Tib” Norcliffe, Anne’s outrageous former lover. Could this be the cause of Mariana’s tears in the promotional photos?
