Шаблон:Infobox television season The second series of the ITV television series Benidorm, which is a sitcom set in an all-inclusive holiday resort (The Solana) in Benidorm, Spain, began broadcasting on 28 March 2008, consisting of eight episodes.[1] The entire series was directed by Sandy Johnson and written by Derren Litten.[2][3] Returning from the first series were the Garvey family, consisting of Mick (Steve Pemberton), Janice (Siobhan Finneran), Chantelle (Hannah Hobley), Michael (Oliver Stokes) and Janice's mother Madge Barron (Sheila Reid), whereas Geoffrey Hutchings was introduced as Mel Harvey, Madge's new fiancé; swingers Donald (Kenny Ireland) and Jacqueline Stewart (Janine Duvitski); mother and son Noreen (Elsie Kelly) and Geoff "The Oracle" Maltby (Johnny Vegas); homosexual couple Gavin (Hugh Sachs) and Troy Ramsbottom (Paul Bazely); un-keen couple Kate (Abigail Cruttenden) and Martin Weedon (Nicholas Burns); and Solana staff Mateo Castellanos (Jake Canuso) and manageress Janey York (Crissy Rock).[4][5]
Overall, the series received an average viewership of 5.98 million, with the opening episode receiving 7.14 million viewers.[6] The series concluded on 16 May 2008, with the series finale attracting 6.32 million viewers.[6] As a result of the second series' finale being left on a cliff hanger, a special was broadcast over a year later – on 31 May 2009,[7][8] which was produced in order to conclude the second series before the third series was broadcast in late 2009.[9]
