The BBC’s official Twitter account for crime drama Luther has released the first photo from the set of the upcoming final series.

It was confirmed earlier this month that Series 3 will comprise “four perfectly dark, chillingly-formed episodes”.

Written by creator Neil Cross, the third series of Luther will see Idris Elba will return as Detective Chief Investigator John Luther in the new episodes, alongside Warren Brown (Inside Men) as Detective Sergeant Justin Ripley, Dermot Crowley (Bleak House) as DSU Martin Schenk, Nikki Amuka-Bird (Survivors) as Detective Sergeant Erin Gray and Michael Smiley (Wire in the Blood) as Benny Silver.
