The Walking Dead season 7: When will it return with part B?

This is when the war against Negan will commence

If you're yet to come to terms with the fact The Walking Dead is finished for the winter, fret not - there's just under two months to go until it returns.

FOX has announced that 'season seven part B' will return internationally on Monday 13 February 2017 with its US premiere arriving the night before on Sunday 12 February.

Season seven began back in October when it aired a traumatic premiere that saw two of the show's biggest characters get killed off at the hand of new villain Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

Over the course of the following seven episodes, the series saw most of the characters - including leader Rick (Andrew Lincoln) - instruct his group to defer to Negan.

Following the showdown which occurred in the gripping midseason finale, however, it seems our group is convinced that fighting back is the only option.

We definitively ranked all eight episodes of the season so far, the results of which you can find here.

The Walking Dead returns in the US on 12 February with its UK premiere arriving the following night on FOX at 9pm; a preview was released teasing the war to come.
