Rivals Season 2 Opens with Funeral Following Monica's Death

Bright spots amid the gloom

Emily Atack shines as the heavily pregnant Sarah Stratton, trading sharp banter with Rupert. Victoria Smurfit delivers a compelling performance as Maud, caught between ambition, a dangerous fling and her desire to hold onto her marriage. Taggie and Basil share chemistry, yet Taggie and Rupert still seem fated for each other.

Can Rivals find its fun again?

The show continues to deliver occasional moments of brilliance, yet its original bright charm has faded. Viewers craving the cheeky 80s spirit of the first season will have to tune in when Rivals season two part two arrives on Disney+ on Wednesday 11 November.
