Suranne Jones and Rose Leslie will be back for a third season of the popular drama Vigil later this year. The BBC has released some initial photos offering a sneak peek at the new series, which has already finished filming in Svalbard and Scotland.
Jones and Leslie are returning as detectives Amy Silva and Kirsten Longacre in a new case. They’ll be investigating a shooting at a secluded research station in the Arctic, where a member of a secret British military team was killed.
Amy and Kirsten face a dangerous mission: they must stop a killer and prevent an international crisis. The conflict is fueled by a struggle for energy and resources in the Arctic, and the stakes are high – their jobs and their relationship are both at risk.

The cast has also welcomed several new members, such as Jeppe Beck Laursen, Steven Miller, Naomi Yang, Benjamin Wainwright, Tornike Gogrichiani, and Danusia Samal.
I’m so excited about season three of Vigil! The cast is getting even bigger and better with some fantastic new faces. We’re going to see Artur Zai Barrera, Jordan Duvigneau, Kaisa Hammarlund, Adam Fidusiewicz, Eric Godon, Conor Berry, Amy Manson, Jason Tobin, Steven Cree, Killian Coyle, Derek Riddell, Alma Prelec, Dawn Sievewright, and Shereen Cutkelvin joining the show.
