Good Omens Season 2 - The Nice and Accurate Summary of everything we know so far
All of the official info we got about Good Omens season 2 in one place (for the unofficial stuff, like photos of the shooting I’ve got the gos2unofficial tag).
How long has S2 been in the making, plans, and the possibility of S3:
Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman started planning sequel to the book in 1989 - even before it has been published. But because they careers took off and they had an ocean in the between them, it was never realized it in the 90s. In 2005 they made another plans to write in a year or so but in 2007 Terry was diagnosed with Alzheimer so again the the plans did not come into fruition.
In 2010 Terry and Neil agreed to let people go forward with making Good Omens as a TV show, they talked about the shape of the show as a whole and where it would go.
The purpose of the second season is to finish the story which Neil and Terry planned.
The sequel planned in 1989 is a hypothetical Season 3. Season 2 is how we get from the end of Season 1 to the place where we could start Season 3.
Neil stared plotting the second season in 2018, a year before the first season came out.
Three seasons is the plan - as Neil said ‘if Amazon and the BBC are up for the third’.
Cast and crew:
The casting begun in March 2020 with Suzanne Smith as the casting director.
Writing: Neil Gaiman and co-writer John Finnemore, with also Cat Clarke, Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman writing minisodes.

Who is not returning is Paul Chahidi (Sandalphon in S1) because he was unfortunately shooting something something else in the time they’d need him. Neil said: Fingers crossed for Season 3.
When and where does the filming takes place:
The filming started on the 18th October 2021, for eighteen weeks with three weeks hiatus over Christmas, until the 11th March 2022.
The entire second season is being shot in Scotland - it’s based in Bathgate and the Central Belt of Scotland.
A big set was built in the studio in Bathgate to include for example Aziraphale’s Soho.
Outside the studio they were so far filming in the Edinburgh Inverleith Park, Stirling and Old Stirling Town Cemetary, Hopetown House, Dumbarton, Edinburgh Stockbridge and Edinburgh Circus Lane.
How many episodes will S2 have
Six episodes.
When will it come out:
No release date yet, but the first season took 16 months from the start of shooting… so perhaps the second quarter of 2023?
The plot:
From Neil’s blog: There are so many questions people have asked about what happened next (and also, what happened before) to our favourite Angel and Demon. Here are, perhaps, some of the answers you’ve been hoping for. As Good Omens continues, we will be back in Soho, and all through time and space, solving a mystery which starts with one of the angels wandering through a Soho street market with no memory of who they might be, on their way to Aziraphale’s bookshop. (Although our story actually begins about five minutes before anyone had got around to saying “Let there be Light”.)
From Neil’s instagram: Game on! There are mysteries, histories, secrets revealed and Something Too Terrible To Be Revealed on the way. Also a cardboard box.
From the BBC website: The new season will explore storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the uncanny friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley. Having been on Earth since The Beginning and with the Apocalypse thwarted, Aziraphale and Crowley are getting back to easy living amongst mortals in London’s Soho when an unexpected messenger presents a surprising mystery.
Neil said that ‘It will be set all over the world. Or at least, it leaves Soho occasionally. Sort of.’
When Neil was asked for some out of the context spoilers he answered: Wouldn’t you rather just go in ready to be surprised, impressed, upset, delighted, confused and amazed? - 6 adjectives, 6 episodes… perhaps they fit together?
We will learn more about Aziraphale’s Soho, more about the bookshop and how the books are filed and more about the Bentley’s music. We’ll see inside the coffee shop across the street. Tea will be drunk in the bookshop, and so will cocoa.
There will be a duck-feeding scene.
Neil said: In this season we get to have new adventures with old friends, to solve some extremely mysterious mysteries, and we encounter some entirely new humans (living, dead, and otherwise), angels, and demons.
Neil implied that the building opposite the bookshop is a pub.
Neil shared this small piece of the script saying: Aziraphale: … of the…ave you… / Crowley: Not one. / Aziraphale: Oh good. / Crowley: …
Neil about S2: It’s set in 2023. And there have definitely been lockdowns. There are a lot of tourists and people in Soho, some of whom wear face-masks and most of whom don’t.
There is Sandwich.
There will be more on why Aziraphale has problem with French.
There will be “minisodes” – stories that begin and end within a larger episode, ones that dive into history: a solo-story set in biblical times (by John Finnimore), in Victorian times in Edinburgh - our favourite angel and demon get into a wee bit of a pickle there (by Cat Clarke) and a story in London during the blitz (by Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman).
The fennec foxes
In August 2021 Neil said to an ask: In Season 1 of Good Omens, the part of a demon named Crowley was played by actor David Tennant. Budget cuts in Season 2 mean that the part of Crowley in Season 2 will be shared between a glove puppet, a dear friend of the production manager’s named, I believe, Raoul, and five trained fennec foxes wearing an overcoat. Why fennec foxes? We figured nobody would notice the difference.
This joke keeps growing since then - We will make the fennec foxes ginger by special effects. Or perhaps just put the gingerest one on the top. - with wonderful fan art, comparisons and we learned from Neil that David will actually be there as a stuntman and will be set on fire to protect the foxes: For actual death-defying stunts we’ll have the actual David Tennant come in for the day and risk life and limb for us. I can promise that there will be no pyrotechnics anywhere near the fennec foxes. Apart from anything else, there are rules about that sort of thing on set. Whenever you see Crowley burning, it will be a lovely Scottish actor named David Tennant who will be in for the day in order to be set on fire, struck by lightning, immolated, or otherwise hurled into the blazing heart of an inferno. He seems to quite enjoy it.

Things the GO fandom as a whole have just accepted as canon
Crowley's favorite word is "ngk-"
They kissed in 1941. That's why the vibe was so awkward during the Holy Water scene in 1967.
The fire extinguishers in s2 are all from Crowley because of the bookshop fire in s1
Aziraphale is a huge flirt. Crowley gets flustered easily.
They adopted Jimbriel and Muriel
Crowley steals all the genders but Aziraphale is content with the lack of them
Crowley would go to bars and rant to Hozier, not knowing it was him, then hear his songs on the radio and break down because the lyrics understanded him.
He was also besties with Freddie Mercury
Oscar Wilde was in love with Aziraphale
Gabriel is Kenough
