On Friday, 8 June 2018 Channel 4 announced that they would not be commissioning a third series of "Damned." Despite winning near universal critical praise the programme's viewing figures were low throughout both series. However, production company What Larks! are seeking a new broadcast partner.
This series is a follow-up of the one-off special from the "Playhouse Presents" series.
In March 2014, Sky Arts announced that it was reprising its Playhouse Presents (2012) series of self-contained television plays. Jo Brand and Morwenna Banks penned a script for what was hoped to be a pilot episode. Sky Arts aired the episode but never commissioned it to series; so Brand, Banks, and comedic writer Will Smith re-developed it for Channel 4, who announced its commission in May 2016.
The first series premiered on Channel 4 on 27 September 2016, and concluded on 1 November 2016.
In February 2017, Channel 4 commissioned a second six-episode series.
