Is there a Vigil series 3?
Good news for fans of Vigil, as there WILL be a series 3. Suranne Jones and Rose Leslie will return as partners DCI Amy Silva and DI Kirsten Longacre.
This time, their new case takes them to a remote Arctic research station. There they must investigate the murder of a member of a covert British special forces mission.
The synopsis tells us: “Amy and Kirsten will need to catch the killer and diffuse a potential international confrontation, driven by a land-grab for energy and resources in the changing polar climate, with both their careers and relationship on the line.”
Writer Tom Edge explained: “In our third season we travel to the frozen north. This is where the world’s great powers are competing to secure advantages as the ice melts.
“With a brilliant cast and crew assembling to make the show, we hope to deliver an epic investigation that shines a light on issues that will shape the world we all live in. This series grapples with the issues that will define tomorrow’s world. These issues include melting ice caps, conflict over resources, energy wars, and lives put at risk in pursuit of peace and profits.”
