Who spotted Peckham station in Killing Eve?

** Don’t worry no season 2 spoilers here- that ain’t cool**

OMG. So, BAFTA winning spy thriller Killing Eve is back for a second series (hurrah!). If you haven’t seen season 1 yet, you need to. Immediately.

The BBC thriller is based on the on the novellas by Luke Jennings. The series follows two amazing, smart and seriously sassy characters - MI5 agent Eve Polastri (Sandra Oh) and Villanelle (Jodie Comer) a deadly assassin who both go head to head in a thrilling game of cat and mouse.

As well as having a brilliant plot, Killing Eve is shot in some incredible locations - from beautiful cities to far-flung corners of Europe. In the second series you will spot lots of iconic London locations - and yep, good ol’ Peckham station makes a cameo appearance!

In one episode you will see M15 agent Eve grab a cheeky 1am snack from a chicken shop - and the chicken shop is Jenny's Cafe, right outside Peckham Rye station. Hawk eyed viewers will spot the front of the Peckham station a couple of minutes later when the duo are smoking outside the cafe. Well done Peckham. Your dim-lit chicken loving, slightly dodgy looking persona did us proud.

Even more reason to watch the second series - we are excited for more double-crossing and sassy one-liners!
