The Capture Plot and Cast

The official synopsis for The Capture season 2 says: “Created and written by Ben Chanan, the next installment of The Capture will again question if we can really believe what we see. Britain is under siege: hacked news feeds, manipulated media, and interference in politics.”

“Entrenched in the UK’s own ‘Correction’ unit, DCI Rachel Carey finds herself in the middle of a new conspiracy – with a new target. But how can she solve this case when she can’t even trust her closest colleagues?

“Escalating from the CCTV thriller of series one, the six-part run features ‘invisible’ assassins, the terrifying rise of deep fake technology, the ever-growing tension between government and Big Tech, and corruption at the heart of the British media.”

Cast returning to the series include Holliday Grainger, Ron Perlman, Ben Miles, Lia Williams, Cavan Clerkin, Ginny Holder, Nigel Lindsay, and more.

The Capture Season 2 Release Date

The Capture Season 2 has now been confirmed to air on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in August 2022, meaning that after three long years the wait is almost over. However, an exact release date is still awaited.
