Both the American and UK airdates for Penny Dreadful season 2 have been slightly pushed back…

, prepare to wait ever so slightly longer for the next season to begin. Both sets of airdates – American and UK – have been pushed back by a week.

It\'s been a couple of weeks since we\'ve had any updates about the show, with the full trailer reveal being the last we heard of its progress. 

No reason was given for the delay that we can find, so perhaps its little more than a logistic matter. If it’s down to quality control, though, surely no-one will mind giving the behind-the-scenes team another week to get all the kinks ironed out.

Either way, Eva Green, Josh Hartnett et al will now return to American screens on Sunday the 3rd of May, and British ones two days later on Tuesday the 5th of May. Sky Atlantic will house the show on this side of the pond, with Showtime being the US home.

updates to pass on before the premiere, we’ll be sure to let you know.
