‘Sanditon’ cast reveal the secrets of making Season 2 in behind the scenes videos
Can you believe the second season of Sanditon is over already?
Based on Jane Austen’s unfinished final novel, the hit period drama originally premiered nearly three years ago on ITV.
After the emotional rollercoaster of the show’s cancellation and subsequent surprise renewal, Sanditon returned to our screens last month.
Last night saw the nail-biting season finale air on PBS in the US, before debuting in the UK on BritBox this morning.
If you’re already missing the residents of Sanditon, we’ve collected together all the brilliant official videos that have been released online about the making of Season 2.

Meanwhile, the third season of Sanditon has apparently finished filming already!
Season 3 is expected to premiere on BritBox and PBS in early 2023 – we’ll keep you updated as soon as have more details.
