After Life: Series 2 trailer

Ricky Gervais's comedy returns

Netflix has released the trailer for the second series of Ricky Gervais's series After Life.

In the second series, his character Tony is still struggling with grief after the death of his wife, but trying to turn over a new leaf after being offensively blunt-speaking in the first series.

'I feel I should help the people who helped me,' he says in the teaser.

The series also stars Tom Basden, Tony Way, Diane Morgan, Mandeep Dhillon, Ashley Jensen, Kerry Godliman, Joe Wilkinson, Penelope Wilton and Roisin Conaty.

After Life returns to Netflix on April 4.

The first series was the streaming service's second most watch TV series last year, after US fantasy show The Witcher.
