When soldier Shaun Emery's conviction for a murder in Afghanistan is overturned due to flawed video evidence, he returns to life as a free man with his young daughter. But as damning CCTV footage from a night out in London comes to light, Shaun's life takes a shocking turn and he must soon fight for his freedom once more. Detective Inspector Rachel Carey is drafted to investigate Shaun's case, but she quickly learns that disentangling misinformation from truth can sometimes be a matter of perspective. In a post-truth era of deepfakes, alternative facts and ubiquitous surveillance, seeing is deceiving; told through the lens of the intelligence community's extraordinary oversight capability, this conspiracy thriller troubles the timely question of whether we can really believe our eyes.

Carol Midgley The Times (UK) Mar 12
4/5
I thought The Capture might be over-stretching itself with a third series, but here is its big strength: you cannot predict what is going to happen next. Go to Full Review Jack Seale Guardian Mar 9

The Capture’s dystopia is still one you can believe in. Go to Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) Mar 9
3/5
Seven years on, series three could not arrive at a better time...but its storylines have become quite ridiculous. Still, if you’re willing to suspend your disbelief and be carried along for the ride, it has its moments. Go to Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Awards Buzz Jun 18
8/10
This show remains as gripping and captivating as ever, tapping into the increasing trends of surveillance and data manipulation and producing something riveting and chilling in the best way. Go to Full Review James Croot The Post NZ Jun 10
Disturbing and deeply engrossing in equal measure, The Capture offers up a potent cocktail of political conspiracy thriller and fright-inducing contemporary concerns about AI and other disruptive technologies. Go to Full Review Adam Sweeting The Arts Desk Apr 13
4/5
It’s tense, rapid-fire viewing, absorbing enough to let you gloss over some riotous implausibilities which sometimes threaten to tip the entire production over a cliff. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Tamara H @Tamara730 Jul 14 Season 3 started with a bang. Then it fizzled out (IMO). I was so disappointed in the reveals towards the end. And the main bad guy was more like a T-2 than a human with all of the seemingly damage he took to just walk away here and there. See more Kelley S @Popooo Jul 11 Fantastic and pretty scary with the rise of AI. Can really see how stuff in this show could happen IRL, and probably does secretly. See more Serena V @RT68904321 Jul 10 Really love the direction they've gone this season. A nice pivot from deepfake. See more Ponhand P @RT86103820 Jul 3 Absolute favorite. This thing could go as far as 10 seasons of the producers play their cards right . Perfect cast . You think season 1 was good ? Wrong . Here comes season 2 and it’s better you think you cannot uber season 2? Wrong here comes season 3 with some more twisted well aged script and actors . Main character female aged so well I can only say that she is getting hotter with her years . I hope she will never use surgery to do CORRECTION on her face . Perfect script . The writer is a genius of the best kind . Director is perfect . The way he moves his characters is unbeatable . This guy should teach directing to anyone ever would want to make good moving pictures See more Kerry C @KerryC890 Jun 29 Season 3 is excellent. I didn’t know what to expect since it can be hard to drag out a plot for 3 seasons and it’s been a while since season 2. But I think they did a pretty good job. See more Meghan A. @RT28766543 Jun 19 Amazing. This show kept me hooked until the very end. See more Read all reviews
