So, who saw that coming?
It has all the workings of season 1's deceptive OCG, but Stuart initially makes out as though he doesn't know anything about what's going on in Berlin. But when Daniel mentions Stuart's younger brother, father and mother – who were all killed by The Cheapside Firm – it clearly strikes a nerve in Stuart and underlines that his loyalties may not be best placed. Even so, Stuart vows that he doesn't know anything – but is he telling the whole truth?
Seeing as Maskell wasn't revealed to be rejoining the cast for season 2, Stuart's return has been expertly (and covertly) pulled off. But what is it always the plan to bring him back for season 2?
"That’s a deliberate trick that we’re playing, to make you think 'How has he got into this situation?'."
"So, it was really important to bring Stuart back because at the end of season 1, there's a lot of unanswered questions, there's a lot of unfinished business and Stuart probably represents the pinnacle of that unfinished business. This guy hurt [Sam's] family and chose to hurt his family and vice versa, Stuart was thrown under the bus by his higher-ups in season 1 and he feels like he's got unfinished business too.
"That, to me, is just a really powerful dynamic to have these two guys who both have unfinished business both with each other and other people. He's a great actor, he's someone that we love to work with so it was a no brainer to ask him to come back."

Idris Elba reveals how Hijack character Sam Nelson is "shell of a man" in season 2Idris Elba gives verdict on whether he would return for more Hijack – teases its potential future
What we do know is that although the series has continued to be a success for Apple TV, series star and executive producer Idris Elba has said that "I don’t think we’ll ever come back" for more after season 2. However, he did admit that there's potential to explore a wider story here.
He added: "There's definitely the man Sam Nelson and what trauma looks like post-something like that and what the residue is. I would be interested in exploring that because it's another thing but it wouldn’t necessarily be hijacking."
