Professor T return date confirmed as season 3 comes to ITV
Ben Miller is back for another season of mysteries.
It's been almost a year and a half since we last saw Ben Miller's crime-solving academic Professor T, but finally the murder mystery show is returning for its third season on ITV.
It has now been confirmed that the first episode in the brand new season will air on ITV1 at 9pm on Wednesday 27th March, with future episodes expected to arrive in subsequent weeks.
Following the end of season 2, this new run will see Professor Jasper Tempest banged up in prison and with his career on the line, and forced to make a momentous decision.
Meanwhile, Jasper’s mother Adelaide, played by Frances de la Tour, and his therapist Dr Helena, played by Juliet Stevenson, will both be on hand to offer support.
The new season will once again be made up of six episodes, but fans don't need to worry that this will be the last time they see the professor – as the show has already been renewed for a fourth season.
