Fans of tense British thrillers are in for a treat as The Capture is officially coming back with its third season.
The brand new episodes are set to hit BBC iPlayer and BBC One in the UK in spring 2026.
A first look picture gives us a glimpse of Holliday Grainger returning to her leading role as Rachel Carey.
Ben Chanan, the BAFTA-winning creator, continues as writer, director and executive producer, steering the story into even more thrilling territory.
Season 3 picks up a year after Rachel broadcast a shocking live deepfake of a government minister, exposing a clandestine UK intelligence video manipulation operation known as Correction.
Now, amid an official inquiry and public suspicion of surveillance, Rachel has stepped up as Acting Commander of Counter Terrorism Command. Her mission: to regain the public’s trust with the new Operation Veritas camera system.
But her plans go off course when a coordinated act of terror rocks the British establishment, leaving just one key witness behind.
As Rachel’s investigation deepens, she’s pulled into a complex geopolitical scandal that rattles the government, security circles and the media.
Viewers can expect a high-stakes conspiracy that challenges what’s real in an age of deepfakes and misinformation.
Broadcast details and additional casting are set to be announced soon.
