The conclusion of ‘McMafia’ has left fans begging the BBC for more, amid hopes of a second series.

The mafia drama wrapped up its eight-episode run on Sunday (12 February) night, with Alex Godman having a final showdown with Russian gangster Vadim Kalyagin.

And while many of the loose ends were tied up by the time the credits rolled, that hasn’t stopped fans begging TV bosses to commission a second series:

#mcmafia was absolutely brilliant!! I was hooked, now hurry on @BBCOne and @AMC_TV and give us series 2 🙃

Can we talk about how Joseph didn't smile the entire series...and then he was so happy and smiley when Lyudmilla gave him the HEART. HER HEART specifically and asked him to come back. THE FEELS. Give us a season 2, please! #McMafia @BBCOne @sofi_lebedeva14 pic.twitter.com/mzeHsKVq81

I hope ratings are super high for episode 8! #McMafia is STILL TRENDING in UK hours later. I hope that's a good indication! We need a season 2. Writers left that door wide open for more stories. We just need @BBCOne to pick up the series! I guess they'll wait for AMC to air it!

There’s no official word yet from the BBC on the possibility of more episodes, and a spokesperson was unable to comment when contacted by HuffPost UK.

The series was co-produced with US network AMC, who are yet to air it.
