It has been confirmed that the first episode of The Capture (https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/the-capture-season-3-trailer-newsupdate/) season 3 will launch on BBC iPlayer at 6am on Sunday 8 March, before airing on BBC One at 9pm that evening.

Rather than all the episodes being made available at once on iPlayer, each new instalment will then arrive weekly on Sundays - meaning the finale is expected to air on Sunday 12 April.

😛😛😛😛 to you bingers - this is how good tv should be shown

The weekly anticipation like Line of duty and Happy Valley was

Blondes does happy dance as means hopefully be no spoilers - wouldn’t that be nice for once !! 😀😀😀😀

Holliday Grainger returns as Rachel Carey in the third season of BBC thriller The Capture (https://www.playpilot.com/show/the-capture-2019), with Rachel now dealing with a "brutal" act of terror and a high-stakes geopolitical crisis.

As seen in an adrenaline-filled extended trailer (https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a70218127/the-capture-season-3-trailer/), season 3 sees Rachel at the helm of the Counter Terrorism Command as Acting Commander.

other stars joining Carey for round three of The Capture (https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/a69948383/the-capture-season-3-first-look/), including Game of Thrones' Indira Varma as Khadija Khan and Paapa Essiedu as MP Isaac Turner.

Season 3 also stars Tessa Wong as DC Chloe Tan, Lia Williams as Gemma Garland, Ginny Holder as DI Nadia Latif, Nigel Lindsay as DCI Tom Kendricks, Daisy Waterstone as Abigail.

Rounding out the cast for this season are Hugh Quarshie as Commissioner Cameron Yates, plus Broadchurch's Andrew Buchan, Game of Thrones' Joe Dempsie, Kaos star Killian Scott, and Good Omens' Jonathan Aris.

As Isaac suggests hiring Rachel as Commander of CTD is the best way for the department to "clean up its act", she's confident that the newly rolled-out Operation Veritas, a surveillance system aimed to detect deepfakes in real time, will restore public trust in the institutions.

After a shooting takes place in central London, Rachel realises she's the only one who's seen the attacker. When footage of the incident is released, she is stunned when she doesn't recognise the man, realising the video has been altered with Correction, the covert manipulation programme uncovered in previous seasons.

But the shooting derails the plan, with Rachel desperate to find out the truth and who's behind the attack.

It was far too complicated for Sunday night tv.

Italiangreyhound · 12/04/2026 22:10

I think this could all be horribly real in the future!!

Nosejobnelly · 12/04/2026 22:17

Huh? 😂

HellenicOfTroy · 12/04/2026 22:19

Oh FFS. That was by some measure the silliest episode so far.

What magical messaging system do the baddies use that overrides every journo's silenced phone notifications at the presser?!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 12/04/2026 22:21

I literally dont understand the ending 😭😭😭

colouringindoors · 12/04/2026 22:22

WHAT?!!! what's going on?!

mumofoneAloneandwell · 12/04/2026 22:25

They should've just ended it at season 2

MabelMoo23 · 12/04/2026 22:25

FfS - I loved S1 & 2 - but this was just too complicated and too far fetched

Sandysandytoes · 12/04/2026 22:28

I have enjoyed all the episodes apart from this one - I have only a vague idea what happened or why or who is good or bad (maybe everyone!) and wtf the point was. It just felt like a set up for a new series rather than a satisfying end m, which always feels like a bit of a con. Hmmmph!

j741 · 12/04/2026 22:29

Series 2 still the best, but 3 started and ended brilliantly - just a blip in the middle. Really good final episode.

HellenicOfTroy · 12/04/2026 22:30

Actually I did think the dining room through the window scene at the end was well done

Reepycreepy · 12/04/2026 22:45

I really enjoyed that. I think I managed to follow everything. Holliday Grainger was brilliant in the lead role. It’s great to see female actors taking the lead in dramas like this.

Pipsquiggle · 12/04/2026 22:46

Well that was shite!

Blondeshavemorefun · 12/04/2026 22:51

I think I got it so obv will find a recap

so Noah aka Will was actually a Russian ?

I was shocked when he killed white rabbit

even more when Rachel shot /killed him

i knew it wasn’t her sister in the video

tho shocking the man behind them and it looked like Noah I thought ? Is he not dead dead tho they said he was

was shocked that the man under her sold her out , tho due to his daughter on drugs

but the blackmail story over the new intern woman dressed as ponchohontus was silly

were they waiting for her to sit in the empty chair or who ?

there will be a s4

Yes, the old boys (and Princess Anne) club running the show, looking out for and covering up for their own. As has always been the case.

I wonder if there'll be a series 4?

CrossPurposes · 12/04/2026 22:56

It's clearly a marmite third series but once I accepted it wasn't in the same style as the first two I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though they really should have made the colonel look less like the captain from Ghosts.

Blondeshavemorefun · 12/04/2026 22:56

Or he wasn’t a Russian spy and that was made up by simon
