Overview
- Set 12 months after Rachel Carey’s live deepfake broadcast, the new season finds her as Acting Commander leading an inquiry into Correction and rolling out the Operation Veritas camera system.
- A brutal, tightly coordinated attack triggers a fresh investigation that draws Carey into a wider geopolitical crisis across politics, the security services, and the media.
- First-look photos show Paapa Essiedu’s Isaac Turner back on screen with Holliday Grainger’s Carey, confirming his reprise after earlier uncertainty.
- Returning cast includes Indira Varma, Ron Perlman, Ben Miles, Lia Williams, Ginny Holder, Hugh Quarshie, Linus Roache, Nigel Lindsay, Tessa Wong, and Daisy Waterstone.
- New additions include Killian Scott, Jonathan Aris, Joe Dempsie, Andrew Buchan, and Amanda Drew, with the season reported to stream on Peacock in 2026 outside the UK.
