Series 3 (2017)

On 1 December 2014, a number of media outlets reported that ITV had commissioned a third series of Broadchurch. The Sun first reported the news, claiming Chibnall was rushing to finish a script so that filming could begin in Dorset in July 2015.[2] Immediately after the series two finale on 23 February 2015, which repeated the use of "Broadchurch will return" after the closing credits, ITV confirmed that Broadchurch, as well as Tennant and Colman, will return for a third series.[8] Filming began in May 2016 for an expected 2017 release.[9]
