Radio Times: "Atlantis is back this November with a new, darker look. The fantasy drama ended on a cliffhanger at the end of last series with the revelation that Pasiphae (Sarah Parish) is secretly Jason's mother. So, what can we expect from series two? This first trailer gives a few crucial clues, with Ariadne crowned Queen of Atlantis following the death of her father but she has a familiar foe to battle. As Pasiphae learns of her husband's fate, she launches an assault on the mythical city – and who better to come to the queen's rescue than Jason (Jack Donnelly)? Robert Emms (who plays Pythagoras) and Mark Addy (Hercules) also appear in the action-packed trailer with the city's fate lying in their hands."
