BBC America has given the green light to a second season of its first original drama, "Copper", the network announced Thursday.

There is no airdate yet for the 13-episode second season. The period drama, set in 1864, wraps its first 10-episode season on Sunday.



"Copper" follows a rugged Irish immigrant cop (Tom Weston-Jones) who seeks justice for the powerless.

"BBC America's first original scripted series, Copper, has proven to be a perfect fit for the channel. Our viewers have made it our highest-rated series premiere ever and highest-rated drama series ever," Perry Simon, General Manager, Channels, BBC Worldwide America's General Manager of Channels, said in a statement.

"Copper truly captured the boiling pot that was New York City in 1864. We can't wait to get started on the second season."
