About The Second Coming
The Second Coming ended on February 10, 2003, on ITV1. The show aired over two episodes during its single season, concluding its story in early 2003.
It was a drama and science-fiction series that explored the hypothetical arrival of the Son of God on earth. The story followed Steve Baxter, a video shop worker who, after 40 days and nights wandering the Yorkshire Moors, claimed he was the Second Coming. To make the world sit up and take notice, he performed a miracle at Manchester City football ground, prompting worldwide media attention. His goal was to urge mankind to produce a Third Testament within five days to avoid Judgement Day, which led to widespread fear, cynicism, and violence. The series examined themes of faith, chaos, and the battle between good and evil as the world grappled with the implications of Steve’s claims.
The cast included Christopher Eccleston as Stephen Baxter and Lesley Sharp as Judith Roach.
