Happy Valley: First Look at the Third and Final Season

We’ve identified for some time now that Happy Valley will return for a 3rd and closing season on AMC+ and Acorn TV.

We now have our first look, courtesy of some photographs.

In this closing season of the multi-BAFTA award-winning BBC drama created by certainly one of the UK’s most celebrated and critically acclaimed screenwriters, Sally Wainwright (Gentleman Jack), Sarah Lancashire (Julia) returns to her iconic position of Sergeant Catherine Cawood for six new episodes.

Also returning are James Norton (The Nevers) as Catherine’s nemesis, the assassin and sex-offender Tommy Lee Royce; Siobhan Finneran (Downton Abbey) as Catherine’s sister, the recovering addict Clare Cartwright, and Rhys Connah as Catherine’s sixteen-year-old grandson Ryan, eight years after he first performed the position as a younger boy.

In the first-look photographs, Catherine is pictured with a bloodied nostril in the aftermath of a police raid, whereas Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton) – with a radically completely different look – is seen in his jail cell, alongside first-look glimpses of Catherine’s sister Clare (Siobhan Finneran) and teenage grandson Ryan (Rhys Connah).

The closing season of the AMC+ Original collection can even see the return of Happy Valley favorites Ishia Bennison as Joyce, Shane Zaza as Shaf, Chord Melodic as Sledge, and Mete Dursun as Gorkem.

They be a part of the beforehand introduced new and returning forged members: Con O’Neill, George Costigan, Charlie Murphy, Derek Riddell, Karl Davies, Susan Lynch, Rick Warden, Vincent Franklin, Amit Shah, Mark Stanley, and Mollie Winnard.

Happy Valley newcomers Oliver Huntingdon (The Rising), Jack Bandeira (Sex Education), Alec Secareanu (God’s Own Country), and Anthony Flanagan (Gentleman Jack) can even seem in season three.

“When Catherine discovers the remains of a gangland murder victim in a drained reservoir, it sparks a chain of events that unwittingly leads her straight back to Tommy Lee Royce,” the logline reads.

“Her grandson Ryan is now 16 and still living with Catherine, but he has ideas of his own about what kind of relationship he wants to have with the man Catherine refuses to acknowledge as his father.”

“Still battling the seemingly never-ending problem of drugs in the valley and those who supply them, Catherine is on the cusp of retirement.”

The collection has been off the air since 2016, however followers have been craving for extra ever because it went off the air. 

The second season attracted a mean viewers of 9.3 million in the UK.
