Sky has unveiled a set of first-look photos and a short first-look teaser for Gangs of London season three.

The hit crime drama's new instalment is set to arrive next year. It will see Slow Horses star Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù returning as undercover policeman-turned-gangster Elliot Carter, as he navigates his new role as a top-level criminal alongside the Dumanis.

However, their operations are thrown into disarray after a spiked shipment of cocaine kills hundreds in London.

An official synopsis for Gangs of London's new series continues: "The Wallaces, Luan, Lale, and the street gangs face devastating consequences as personal vendettas collide with professional power struggles bleeding into violent turf wars.

"In the ruthless fight for control of London's criminal underworld, no-one is safe. This was no accident — it was a calculated attack. But who's pulling the strings?"

Also featured in the photos are Michelle Fairley as Marian Wallace, and a hooded, unknown assailant walking away from what looks like a deadly car explosion.
