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.

Gripping first episode!

(And nice to see that Darlene from Death in Paradise got an interesting transfer. Don’t think she’ll be telling off her boss in this role.)

Ooh I didn’t notice!!
Also like seeing Rick from Holby city!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 12:25

Yes loved seeing Rick

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 09:01

Totally different man

Yeah that’s the point. They used the deep fake stuff to change the faces on the cameras. And I think she was the only one to see his real face so I wonder if she’ll dare to say.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 13:06

I wonder if it was just a ploy to prove that she’s been unsuccessful with these new cameras, she’s got a lot of haters.

Or he could secretly be a baddie.

Or new boss is the baddie.

We will see!

daffodilandtulip · 09/03/2026 13:09

And I simultaneously love and hate that we need to wait a week to find out!

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 13:22

So do he kill Isaac then ?

head explodes - mine not his - tho his did as well

daffodilandtulip · 09/03/2026 13:30

Ohhhh that’s a good point! That could be pretend too?! 🤯

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 13:59

Sorry meant did he kill him

as in she saw him shoot him yet the films /cameras say he didn’t an now he turns up as head honcho

i think he’s def dead

Recklessismymiddlename · 09/03/2026 20:27

Darlene was in both previous series I think; clearly moonlighting 😜

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 20:32

I am so unobservant.

NeedToKnow101 · 09/03/2026 20:48

Im soooo glad I’m on this thread as I had red wine and fell asleep for the last ten minutes, completely missing what I’ve just found out here. Don’t fall asleep as it wasn’t gripping btw, just wine and lying horizontally so that to me.

BreakfastOfWaffles · 09/03/2026 21:04

I am so glad this is back, and extra excited that we can enjoy a thread without any bingers! What I don't get is why the shooter didn't kill Rachel. There must be a reason for him needing her presence in some way. Can't stand the CIA man, he's awful.

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2026 21:15

Same @BreakfastOfWaffles. All know my views on bingeing 😂

he didn’t shot her so that she can tell everyone that it’s all a fake an cover up

OP posts:
dapsnotplimsolls · 14/03/2026 22:37

I've finally caught up - I knew about the key bits because I stupidly watched Gogglebox last night 😂

I think the assistant is dodgy (the one who kept wittering about the podium).

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/03/2026 14:46

e2 tonight

OP posts:
CollaterlieSistersSister · 15/03/2026 14:52

Thanks Blondes. I rewatched series 1 this week, and now I can’t remember anything about series 3! I’ll have to reread this thread I think.

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/03/2026 15:52

S2. Read the recap

OP posts:
CollaterlieSistersSister · 15/03/2026 16:30

Sorry Blondes what do you mean by “S2”? I know there is a S2, but it’s S1 that I rewatched.

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/03/2026 17:20

You said you can’t rem anything about s3

s3 is on now. Only e1 has been shown

so thought you meant you had seen s2

lazymum99 · 15/03/2026 18:30

I await you lot to watch tonight’s episode 2 with bated breath. No spoilers from me because I haven’t a clue what’s going on 🫤😳

purpleme12 · 15/03/2026 18:32

😆 I do remember feeling like that last time I watched The Capture!

dapsnotplimsolls · 15/03/2026 18:40

As with Industry, I like being a bit bamboozled!

LittleJustice · 15/03/2026 18:57

Ooh that was very good really enjoyed it although I can't understand why they didn't immediately take everybody's phones off them if they didn't want them to start sending videos out. Surely that's the first thing you would do.

Also wondering if Isaac is really dead but presumably he is. Gripping stuff.

purpleme12 · 15/03/2026 19:01

Yes someone was bound to leak something from their phone

I think he's dead
