Stephen Graham's hit BBC series Boiling Point has no current plans to return.

The four-part drama is a direct follow-up to the 2021 movie of the same name, following Vinette Robinson's Carly as she takes over her mentor Andy's (Graham) kitchen after he suffered a heart attack.

The series debuted to critical acclaim in October 2023, earning it a perfect score of 100% on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes.

The original 2021 movie - which was shot in a single take - also debuted to critical success, earning a near-perfect score of 99% on Rotten Tomatoes and four nominations at the BAFTA Film Awards.

As well as Graham and Robinson, the sequel series saw the return of Hannah Walters (Time), Ray Panthaki (Marcella), Áine Rose Daly (Jack Ryan) and Izuka Hoyle (Big Boys).

While there are no plans for Boiling Point to return, Graham has once again teamed up with Boiling Point director Philip Barantini for Netflix's upcoming crime drama Adolescence.

The four-part series will star Graham as Eddie Miller, whose life is turned upside down when his 13-year-old son Jamie (Owen Cooper) is arrested for the murder of a teenage girl who goes to his school.
