Steven Knight drama SAS Rogue Heroes series three arrives at a critical stage of World War Two

Based on Ben Macintyre’s best-selling book of the same name, SAS Rogue Heroes series three continues the dramatised story of the world’s greatest Special Forces unit, with the semi-fictionalised series charting their astounding feats of bravery and the impact of war upon the men.

What’s the storyline?

From the press release:

Summer, 1944, France. Paddy Mayne and his Rogues have parachuted deep behind enemy lines and must destroy and disrupt the mighty German army as they continue to repel the Allied advances. Alongside the French resistance and new recruits, the SAS once again face seemingly unsurmountable challenges, as the liberation of Western Europe begins.

Returning in the role of their leader, Paddy Mayne, is Jack O’Connell, alongside Sofia Boutella as French-Algerian intelligence operative, Eve Mansour and Dominic West as British Army officer, Dudley Clarke.

Lorne MacFadyen (Vigil, Starstruck) joins in the role of Reverend Fraser McLusky, offering support to returning troops Reg Seekings (Theo Barklem-Biggs), Jim Almonds (Corin Silva), Pat Riley (Jacob Ifan), Johnny Cooper (Jacob McCarthy), Bill Fraser (Stuart Campbell), Dave Kershaw (Bobby Schofield) and John Tonkin (Jack Barton).

Further new recruits include Nick Hargrove (Devotion, American Primeval), Andrew Dawson and Jake Jarratt, fighting alongside members of the French and Belgian Maquis.

We assume this series will arrive in 2026, and will bring you updates and trailers as we find them.
