Sky One has decided not to order a second season of their mystery series Agatha Raisin, TVWise has confirmed. Despite this, Acorn TV has stepped up to fully commission a second season for their streaming service in the United States. 
More than a year after they originally boarded, and mere months before the series is set to premiere on BBC Two here in the UK, Starz has backed out as the U.S. co-producer of Stephen Poliakoff's lavish period drama Close To The Enemy. 
Acorn TV – the North American streaming service owned and operated by RLJ Entertainment – has secured the exclusive U.S. streaming rights to Partners In Crime, BBC One's upcoming Agatha Christie series starring David Walliams (Little Britain) and Jessica Raine (Call The Midwife).
