Rivals fans make desperate plea for Disney+ after watching entire series in days – and finale ‘shakes their mental state’

Rival fans have been begging Disney+ for a second series of the sassy series which ended on a cliffhanger after watching all of its eight episodes in a matter of days – with a second series yet to be confirmed.

The story is set in 1986 and follows the cutthroat world of television, including the tense rivalry between Rupert Campbell-Black (Alex Hassell) and Lord Tony Baddingham (David Tennant).

In the latest episode, Doctor Who star David’s character was fighting with Cameron Cook (Nafessa Williams) in dramatic scenes and was hit in the head, seemingly killed and giving his rival Rupert the opportunity to make blackmail.

X fans were furious: “I just finished Rivals… My mental state?” Not good. This ending, seriously, WTF?!?! We need season 2, there’s so much more story to tell: “How can we not have a confirmed second season of Rivals yet?” You can’t have a season finale with this big cliffhanger and not renew it.”

Although the series has been acclaimed by critics and viewers, a second series has not yet been confirmed.

‘Oh my God. I guess there will be a Rivals season 2. They stayed so true to the book, I didn’t expect this ending!’ : ‘I just watched Rivals and oh my god, it’s so good. It’s not normally my type of thing, but I was hooked. I need a season 2’.

The series has been called a “bonkbuster” and Disney’s sexiest series, earning a whopping 93% on the Tomatometer.

It comes after Hassell revealed he was actually fully naked for naughty scenes as Lothario Campbell-Black in the mind-blowing series.

The actor, 44, admitted he revealed his real penis during the infamous tennis scene with busty co-star Emily Atack, 34, after giving up the option to use a prosthesis or a digital simulation and, rather than being nervous, cheekily admitted: “I’m not without attributes.

He told Times 2 magazine: “I don’t mind seeing my butt and my Willy on screen, I wouldn’t have done this job if I had been particularly shy about my body.”

The character’s erotic endeavors see him join Concorde’s Mile High club just seconds into the first episode, before stripping naked to have sex on a fur rug.

He told Metro: “There was discussion about my comfort, whether it was me, the prosthetics or digital. But in the end, we went there.

Regarding the logistics of filming the steamy scenes, he said: “You plan it all in advance and on the day of it, you just try not to laugh too much.”

But this isn’t the first time Alex has stripped naked on screen after showing off in Prime Video’s The Boys, in which he played the perverted superhero Translucent.

Of the racy scenes, co-star Emily told Sky News: “It’s so liberating and of course there will be people who take what you do and try to tell this negative narrative. I’m a woman, of course people will do that.

“But what I have to continue to do is emphasize to people that I am exactly where I need to be, I am at work.” I play a role and I’m very comfortable.

But some scenes apparently didn’t go as well as it seemed, with Dr Who star David revealing he had actually “crushed his knee” after mistiming an erotic scene.

Speaking on Heart Radio, the actor, who plays Lord Tony Baddingham, admitted the incident actually happened when he was too keen to get into bed.

He said: “I had to throw myself onto a bed at one point, at one point in what was going to be a sort of erotic ecstasy, and I slightly mistimed it. I ended up m crush your knee on the bed frame.

To which Alex replied, “He’s doing his own stunt,” to which David joked, “That wasn’t my sexiest move.”
