They're only one missed dose away from ripping our heads apart' is the mantra of zombie haters out to destroy the fragile peace reached between the undead and the living. Enter the hotbed town of Roarton when season two of, In The Flesh, BBC AMERICA's genre-bending six-part zombie mini-series, returns Saturday, May 10, 10:00pm ET. What happens when the undead re-enter society as functioning beings? Can things ever go back to normal? And more importantly, who is more dangerous, the undead or the living? Nine months have passed and the war to protect the town from the undead, known as Partially Deceased Syndrome (PDS) sufferers has ceased. Kieren Walker (Luke Newberry, The Legend of Hercules) however, is still struggling to find self-acceptance and longs to escape to Paris to start anew. But in the wider world, the fear of an uprising is palpable. PDS terrorists linked to the Undead Liberation Army (ULA), believing they are the redeemed, are going rabid (zombie state) off the drug, Blue Oblivion, and attacking the living at an alarming rate - causing the radical Pro-living political party, Victus, to target the undead with vigor and oppressive measures. And with the arrival of new and explosive characters from both factions in Roarton, Kieren is caught square in the middle of a new budding war, making his desire for a quiet life an unrealistic option.
