David Tennant confirmed to join Downton Abbey favourite for third season of hit BBC anthology drama

I really enjoyed the first season of this prison drama when it came out in 2021 – Sean Bean was fantastic as Mark Cobden, a seemingly gentle inmate, and Stephen Graham delivered a powerfully conflicted performance as the guard, Eric McNally. Then, in 2023, they shifted gears with a new season focusing on a women’s prison, and brought in Jodie Whittaker, Tamara Lawrance, and Bella Ramsey to lead the story. It was a smart move that kept things fresh.
