Filming has finished on the third series of BBC One’s Luther, the show’s official Twitter feed has confirmed.

Series 3 began filming last November and sees Luther “under intense pressure, with two conflicting crimes to investigate and a ruthless ex-copper determined to bring him down.”

Sienna Guillory (Resident Evil) will play Luther’s new love interest, Mary, who works in a vintage clothes shop and meets Luther in a chance encounter.

Idris Elba, who plays Luther, commented: “I want to thank the fans for waiting so patiently for the new season. We’re thrilled to deliver it to you. Here comes John!”

Four new 60-minute episodes will air on BBC One later this year.
