The BBC shared a behind-the-scenes picture of her on the set of Ten Pound Poms back in May. The series stars Michelle as Kate Thorne, a British woman who departs post-war Britain for Australia, having been promised a better quality of life for just a tenner.
In the sneak-peek at series two, Michelle looked completely different, dressed in 1950s attire in a stripey top and linen blue bottoms. Sporting a classic waved hair do, Michelle was worlds away from her usual modern glam. Alongside the image, the BBC wrote: "G’Day Kate! Michelle Keegan ’s back in action as nurse Kate Thorne on the set of #TenPoundPoms in Australia Follow Kate & the Roberts family (led by Faye Marsay and Warren Brown) into 1957 when series 2 comes to @BBCiPlayer & BBC One.
" Fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their excitement over the drama returning. "Fab!" one wrote. "Such a great show, no idea that series 2 was coming.
" Another tweeted: "That's brilliant news. I enjoyed the first series." With filming officially beginning on series two, Michelle will be back as nurse Kate, while co-stars Warren Brown and Faye Marsay reprise their roles as Terry and Annie Roberts.
The first series saw the couple move their whole family over to Australia with dreams of starting a new life. The show, which is written by Fool Me Once 's Danny Brocklehurst, will also be welcoming new faces into its cast for series two, meanwhile Australian actors Rob Collins, Leon Ford, Declan Coyle, Stephen Curry, Hattie Hook, Finn Treacy, Emma Hamilton and Cheree Cassidy will be back to reprise their roles.
