Ben Miller is back as ‘Professor T‘ as ITV announces Season 3 will premiere this March on ITV1 & ITVX.
The drama stars Miller as Professor Jasper Tempest, lecturer at Cambridge Institute of Criminology, teaching students imaginatively, if pedantically, about the science of crime… Or at least, he was…
In the new season, Professor T finds himself in unfamiliar surroundings banged up in prison after the explosive finale to series two saw him trying to defend his old flame DCI Christina Brand (Juliet Aubrey). Now, both their careers are on the line, and both have momentous decisions to make. Will Christina allow Jasper to incriminate himself to save her career or will her conscience and the formidable duo of his mother Adelaide (Frances de La Tour) and his therapist Dr Helena (Juliet Stevenson) get the better of her?
The Professor struggles in prison – the hostile, dirty and noisy environment plays havoc with his OCD plus he is a curiosity among the inmates. But his brilliant criminal mind will soon be put to good use by some of the less-than-brilliant criminals he finds himself surrounded by.
Alongside the aforementioned key cast, this season also features guest appearances from Jeany Spark, Flora Montgomery, Jack Ashton and Roger Barclay.
Based on the hit Belgian series of the same name, ‘Professor T’ is produced by Eagle Eye Drama. It was confirmed last month that the show had already been renewed for a 4th Season.
‘Professor T‘ Season 3 premieres Wednesday, 27th March 2024 at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
