Industry is a joint production with American network HBO and was created by Mickey Down and Konrad Kay.
Following its debut, season one got a 76 percent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, while the follow-up gained a 100 percent score on the ratings aggregator site.
Season two has already aired in America with the show premiering Stateside back in August and recently finished airing before coming to British screens.
Teasing season two, Kay said: “We had a rule that we had to burn our best plot ideas as quickly as possible. Hold nothing back.”
Adding: “Every episode should feel like a finale. We hate how slow most modern TV is.”
The second outing will be ending on a spectacular note with Down telling Complex: “It was a dirty little idea that we had as we were writing it.
“We were almost too afraid to bring it up with other writers because we love it, because it makes good on something we set up in the first [pilot] episode, which I think most of the audience assume we’ve just totally forgotten as a mechanical plot point. [That] was good for the pilot but didn’t have any resonance for the rest of the series.
“We were bringing it up constantly, thinking, “Is this something we could actually do?”
Working is now taking place on season three with the writers admitting they were looking ahead even before the show had got an official recommission from HBO.
“We’ve started writing”, Down told web3 newsletter Dirt with Kay adding: “We’ve got a [very] good season three idea”.
Industry season 2 starts on BBC One tonight at 10.40pm and will be available as a boxset on BBC iPlayer following broadcast
