It’s official: BBC America’s Perry Simon confirmed Orphan Black and Broadchurch will both be returning with all new episodes in 2015. Orphan Black‘s third season will consist of 10 episodes starring, of course, Tatiana Maslany. The renewal order was a real no-brainer as the show’s doubled its ratings and set a new series high record with the season two finale.

Graeme Manson and John Fawcett co-created the award-winning series and executive produce along with Ivan Schneeberg and David Fortier. In addition to Maslany, the Orphan Black cast includes Jordan Gavaris, Dylan Bruce, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Skyler Wexler, Kevin Hanchard, Evelyne Brochu, Kristian Bruun, Michael Mando and Matt Frewer.

Broadchurch‘s second season will find David Tennant, Olivia Colman, Jodie Whittaker, Andrew Buchan and Arthur Darvill reprising their roles, and they’ll be joined by Charlotte Rampling, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, James D’Arcy, Eve Myles and Phoebe Waller-Bridge when the series returns in 2015. Currently in production in Dorset and North Somerset, England, season two’s episodes one and two will be directed by James Strong who also helmed five episodes from season one.
