'The End of the F***ing World' is coming back for a second season and it's time to celebrate

If you enjoyed the dark humour and acerbic one-liners from The End of the F***ing World (TEOTFW), then we have some splendid news for you: it's going to be back for a second season.

The Netflix black comedy, based on Charles Forsman's graphic novel, ran for eight episodes earlier this year and ended on something of a cliffhanger.

A cliffhanger that's now -- hopefully -- going to be resolved.

That tweet was posted by the official TEOTFW Twitter account on Tuesday night. BuzzFeed reports that the announcement of a second season was made at the Edinburgh TV Festival, and that the new episodes will again be based on material written by Forsman.

Netflix posted a tweet confirming that Charlie Covell, who wrote Season 1, will return.

We don't know much more than that at this stage, but it's definitely more than enough to justify some early excitement.
