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.

'Even if I tried to explain it, you wouldn't understand'

Yes

Whattheflush · 29/03/2026 20:54

This is absolutely ridiculous and has totally jumped the shark. Bailing out to watch The Pitt instead.

😄 I ducked out after five minutes for classic holby city - having a lovely time

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/03/2026 21:10

Who the hell is simon?

So Noah is captain And known and his boss's tried to kill him to stop him talking

Cash flow and white rabbit tricked frank - so he didn't have cancer ....

So who wanted Isaac dead and why ?

This gets more complicated !

And good !

So he can hear them over the music after all

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/03/2026 22:01

So Rick from holby is in deep. Can't work out if Danny and Gemma are on her side

Why is wizard lying about his tablets /and saying 3 diff allergies /reasons and pop up on Noah's phone - guessing as a sos

Where were the bullets that James didn't have on him - he knows about deep fake and guessing when Gemma and Danny let him out early from the crime he didn't commit

Poor George helping her and now dead.

Tho why did Noah kill him but then help Rachel

As in the rest of the secret service wanting to kill them both /her

I am even more confused and can't wait till next Sunday

The plot thickens

Who the fuck is simon ?

MajesticWhine · 29/03/2026 22:04

I am confused as hell.

purpleme12 · 29/03/2026 22:23

I have no idea what's going on at all

Nosejobnelly · 29/03/2026 22:31

Glad it’s not just me being really confused 😕
who’s good, who’s bad, etc?

EleanorPeck · 29/03/2026 22:33

Every time the 'Colonel' featured in a scene all I could see was the Captain from Ghosts!

CrossPurposes · 29/03/2026 22:34

Simon is 100% AI.

This series is preposterous but I'm going with the flow by enjoying it for what it is and, at the same time, pretending it has no connection at all with series 1 and 2 which at least bore some semblance to reality.

Noah is like a cross between Iron Man, Black Widow, and Captain America. Which Avenger will he be next?

We thought that too!

Urgentbiscuitrequired · 29/03/2026 22:36

It is all a bit of a mess. I think they are all baddies, including Rachel, because they are all mangling my brain. I really can't see how this will come together to make sense.

I get this is supposed to be mysterious and tense, but I would like to know what is going on at some point before the last five minutes. Just an inkling of who is who in this and why would be helpful.

Urgentbiscuitrequired · 29/03/2026 22:38

The body count is a bit too random and high to be justified too.

MissBattleaxe · 29/03/2026 23:13

Absolutely no idea what just happened and who is a goody anymore. I love Holliday Grainger but this plot has gone nuts.

LindorDoubleChoc · 29/03/2026 23:20

I'm sorry but who the fuck is "Rick from Holby"? Can we have the character's name or at least the actor's name?

Hang on .. frank was lied to? How do you know? I watched it twice to pay attention!

So Noah is some sort of super soldier. Do we think George was too? Otherwise how did he know about them.

Wizard shaking the tabs bottle before each code word. And if it was a code and Noah left at once then why didn’t he head to Reuben's road?

Operation Frankenstein…. Hmmm I can’t guess what happens next!

And now I’m wondering if either Isaac or Noah at the beginning were likenesses and not real.

also agree that Simon is ai.

Blondeshavemorefun · 29/03/2026 23:22

still why kill Issac?

and the bad arse team want go kill bosh now that he’s pissed off with them trying to kill him

I can’t remember the characters name! He’s the commander in the uniform. Noah put his hands on his shoulders when he threatened him

Killing Isaac must be part of a bigger plan? Unless they’re just testing the tech in real world circumstances.

I was confused as to why the increment want to kill
black fish Noah. He had recalibrated and resumed his position. What changed?

the writer resisted well by omitting “if you want to live”!

Never watched Holby!

Commissioner Yates I think.

Pinkfluffypencilcase · 29/03/2026 23:28

Oh and it turns out that they’re fighting against each other when surely they’re all on the same side.

purpleme12 · 29/03/2026 23:29

I have absolutely no idea

CactusSwoonedEnding · 29/03/2026 23:45

Rick from Holby means the character played by Hugh Quarshie - Commander Yates.

Came on to post that Simon is obviously an evil AI but someone else got there firsr.

Project Frankenstein will be about deepfaking that Frank is still alive until they can engineer a clean no-corpse noone-to-blame death in a few werks
