The ITV series Liar is back for season 2. The show tells the story of schoolteacher Laura, accusing surgeon Andrew of rape, as she can't remember what happened the night after they had a romantic date.

Joanne Froggatt (from Downton Abbey) and Ioan Gruffudd (Fantastic Four, Titanic) lead the cast of this controversial thriller produced by the same director of the hit series Broadchurch, James Strong.

Liar was filmed around London and Deal, in Kent. Here is our spoiler-free filming locations report of the series, including season 2:

Where was Liar filmed?

Everything starts with stunning aerial views of the saltmarshes at Blackwater Estuary near Tollesbury (Essex), resembling from the sky the patterns of a human brain.

This unique landscape is a nature reserve located where the Blackwater River meets the sea between Maldon and West Mersea.

Laura is kayaking near Tollesbury, on the Essex coast. Pictured, the boatyard owned by Carl Peterson (Howard Charles), also featured in season 2.

The yacht harbour where the boat is moored is also here, in Tollesbury Marina.

These marshes are a bit similar to the ones featured in the Netflix series Outer Banks, set in Kildare Island.

Deal is a beautiful coastal town in Kent, where most of the action was filmed.

The 'Thanet and Dover' Police force is a fictional name made up for the show.

The fatal date takes place in the Jasin's Restaurant at Deal Pier, although in reality, it's just a modest cafe.

Laura's house is located in a nice promenade at 53 The Marina in Deal.

Laura's sister's family home was filmed in an oceanfront house at Wellington Parade in the small village of Walmer, located less than a couple of miles south of the centre of Deal.
