Come June the 6th, you're going to cancel all your plans, stock up on ready meals, and pray that the British summer will be as rubbish as ever for the next three days, because Orange is the New Black is on its way - and there's no other way you're going to want to spend your weekend besides binge-watchingthe prison-based series. In these newly released images, we get a teaser of what's to come in season 2 of the Netflix comedy-drama, so do beware, there are some spoilers for season 1 here. If you haven't seen yet, we forgive you, just go and catch up on it before reading the below.

Ok, ready? Have you looked away if you need to?

As the photos show, the action picks up immediately where we left off, with Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling) looking at all the blood on her hand from punching God-obsessed former meth head Pennsatucky (Taryn Manning) into a pulp.

Despite committing an offence serious enough to get her into big trouble, we don't think that Piper's going to be sent down to SHU - it just wouldn't make great watching. Maybe Pennsatucky's finally going to back down and stop trolling Piper now she's been shown who's boss? Hmmm. No, we're not convinced either. (There's a reason we write articles about the show and not the actual show itself, it seems.)

Another picture shows Red (Kate Mulgrew) squaring up to new character, Vee (Lorraine Toussaint), who used to be a drug dealer.

 

There'a also a still of some of the ensemble cast - including Taystee (Danielle Brooks), Sophia (Laverne Cox) and Nikki (Natasha Lyonne), all dressed up in formal attire for a mock job fair at Litchfield Prison. No sign yet of Alex Vause (Laura Prepon), but we're sure swagger along at some point. She has to! Right? Please?
