Nearly three years after the head-spinning conclusion of its second series, Anna Friel is back on our screens for Marcella season 3 - and all is not as it seems.

She's managed to work her way into the Maguire family's inner circle as Keira Devlin, but in order to bring down the business - which specialises in the trafficking of people and drugs - and expose the corruption that has allowed it to thrive, Marcella decides she needs to take increasingly drastic measures.
One by one, those around her begin to meet grisly ends, and Marcella becomes an increasingly trusted and influential voice around the table. But Katherine, the formidable matriarch of the Maguire family, smells a rat and Marcella is prepared to do anything to prove her loyalty and avoid a grim fate herself.
However, the deeper Marcella goes, the more concerned DSI Sangha and handler Frank Young become about her behaviour, which not only puts the entire investigation on the line, but leaves Marcella's increasingly fragile mental wellbeing and sense of self hanging in the balance.

While fans of gritty crime dramas in the UK can enjoy Marcella season 3 online with ease, regional restrictions mean that tuning in from anywhere else in the world will be near impossible. That means that anyone based in the UK currently travelling abroad – and having paid for an annual TV license – won’t be able to connect to ITV Hub either.
Luckily, downloading a VPN provides a simple solution. This nifty bit of kit changes your IP address, allowing you to connect to your favourite on-demand services and watch all its premium content regardless of where you’re streaming from.
