Is Banged Up coming back?

Banged Up's return is unconfirmed. The show last aired its final episode on November 15, 2023, and there is no scheduled new season at this time.

Banged Up was a documentary series that premiered on October 31, 2023, on Channel 4. It featured six celebrities participating in a constructed prison experience, where they were locked up for eight days in decommissioned HMP Shrewsbury to explore what life behind bars is really like. The series aimed to provide insight into the prison system by having the well-known inmates live under current UK prison rules, interacting with real ex-criminals who had served long sentences for serious crimes.

The series was led by a former prison governor with 20 years of experience in the UK's toughest prisons, along with former prison officers. The participants, including celebrities and reformed inmates, interrogated each other about their criminal pasts and prison experiences, examining the impact of incarceration on individuals. The show was structured as a four-part series with episodes lasting 60 minutes each.
