The Australian period drama based loosely on Charles Dickens' classic novel Oliver Twist will return with an eight-episode Season 2 on Feb. 10.

Brodie-Sangster stars as Jack, the titular pickpocket-turned-surgeon, alongside David Thewlis, his father figure and nemesis Fagin, and Maia Mitchell, Jack's love interest Lady Belle Fox.

The new season sees Jack being hunted by Inspector Boxer (Luke Bracey) and the threat of being hanged if he sees Lady Belle, who is seeking to develop a career in medicine.

"With Boxer competing with Jack for Belle's affection, the crafty Fagin drags Dodger into their most dangerous heist yet, and a killer is on the loose," a synopsis of the season reads.

Co-created, written and executive produced by James McNamara, the series also stars Susie Porter, Damien Garvey, Tim Minchin, Lucy-Rose Leonard, Nicholas Burton, Kim Gyngell, Luke Carroll, Vivienne Awosoga, Aljin Abella, Brigid Zeneni, Albert Latailakepa, Jeremy Sims and Zac Burgess.
