It's time to watch Season 2 of His Dark Materials on HBO and HBO Max. This episode continues the adventures of Lila (Daphne Keen) and Will Parry (Amir Wilson).

"His Dark Materials" is based on the best-selling novel by Philip Pullman. The show is set in a multi-world alternate universe where humans have animal companions called daemons, which are manifestations of the human soul.

Season 1 centered on orphan Lyra's journey to find her kidnapped best friend Roger and her missing children. Along the way, she learns of the existence of a mysterious substance called dust.

Season 2, largely based on the second book, Subtle Knife, takes Lila to the town of Chittagatse, where she crosses paths with Will, a child from our world. Lila is still in danger from the magisterium as the malicious Mrs. Coulter (Ruth Wilson) tries to bring Lila back home.

"Series 1 had an entertaining element. Writer Jack Thorne told RadioTimes. 'Series two is about trust, learning to trust each other, learning to trust ourselves.'

They meet several new characters, including witch queen Ruta Scadi (Jade Anouka) and Giacomo Paradisi (Terence Stamp), who has a "subtle knife" that cuts through reality.
