The BBC has released the trailer for the upcoming third season of The Capture, the mystery thriller dealing with surveillance and digital manipulation as well as the implications they have on society and the future of the truth.
The trailer is pretty short, clocking in at just 15 seconds, but it gets to the point.
"The question we ask ourselves a year ago has become even more urgent: how do solve fact from fiction? How did we believe what we see?" we hear in the dialogue, laying out the show's mantra - something that's even more prevalent with the rapid developments in generative AI - in crystal clear terms.
We also get brief flashes of our main cast members, a shadowy figure walking down a hallway with a gun, a sniper, a petrol bomber, and an armed raid.
The cast members include Holliday Grainger, Ron Perlman, Ginny Holder, Ben Miles, Indira Varma, and more.

What to Read Next
The show's official synopsis gives us a bit more of an idea of what to expect, reading: "It's been 12 months since Rachel Carey (Holliday Grainger) broadcast a live deepfake of a government minister to the nation, exposing the UK intelligence service's clandestine video manipulation programme known as Correction.
"Amidst an inquiry into the unlawful use of Correction, Carey has become Acting Commander of Counter Terrorism Command, determined to regain the public's trust in surveillance technology through the new Operation Veritas camera system.
"And then it happens: a brutal and exceptionally well-coordinated act of terror aimed right at the heart of the British establishment that leaves behind just one witness.
"The more Carey investigates, the deeper she is drawn into an unfolding geopolitical crisis that infects the British political establishment, the security services, and the media. The conspiracy reaches deep into the State, but just who is pulling the strings?
"Caught in an increasingly violent situation, and with few allies left to trust, what sacrifices will Carey be willing to make?"

The show has been a big hit so far with critics as well as viewers, currently standing at a hugely-impressive 96% positive average score on Rotten Tomatoes.
"The Capture is frightening, a little brainy, and damning of those who refuse to recognize deepfakery for the crisis it has become," wrote the Boston Globe, while Time called it "not just smart and gripping, but also deeply engaged with our bizarre, often terrifying present".
We don't have a season 3 premiere date that's more specific than spring at the moment, but there is some good news. After their removal from Netflix, seasons 1 and 2 are returning to their original streaming home of iPlayer on Friday, 13 February.
The Capture airs on BBC One and streams on iPlayer.
