THE Pact returns to BBC One for a second season with an all-new cast and story.

The new season tells a suspenseful and emotional story featuring the return of Bafta-winning actress Rakie Ayola.

Is The Pact based on a true story?

The Pact on BBC One is not based on a true story.

Pete McTighe created the series with an entirely fictional plotline and imaginary characters.

The official BBC One synopsis for season two reads: "As they look forward to Megan’s wedding, the family have their lives turned upside down when a stranger, Connor (Jordan Wilks), arrives in town claiming a connection that nobody could have imagined.

"As buried secrets come to light, they must consider who they are and grapple with morality and divided loyalty. As their lives spiral out of control, a terrible pact may be all that can save them."

Even though the happenings of the series are not based on real life, the drama did its best to bring out the ethereal beauty of Wales.
