Steven Knight - Creator, Writer and Executive Producer
SAS Rogue Heroes has called ‘action’ on series three, with new and returning cast confirmed for the hit drama. Created by Steven Knight and made by Kudos (a Banijay UK company) for the BBC with MGM+, the new series arrives at a critical stage of World War Two.
Based on Ben Macintyre’s best-selling book of the same name, the third instalment 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.
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.
“It’s always incredibly exciting to be filming SAS Rogue Heroes, and we’re thrilled to be back for another series. I’m blown away by how Steven Knight takes the action to another level, with his scripts transporting us into the world of these remarkable characters, played by a remarkable ensemble of actors. If you thought series two was good, wait until you see what we have in store for series three.”
Karen Wilson - Joint MD of Kudos and Executive Producer
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’ve been on the edge of our seats through two gripping campaigns with SAS Rogue Heroes, a third outing alongside the troops will be an equally explosive and action-packed instalment for BBC viewers. The cast and crew behind this drama have built a great team with true camaraderie, now they’re back together we can’t wait to see the results.”
