We're halfway through Star Trek: Picard season 3 and things have got even more tense on board the Titan.

Sir Patrick Stewart has returned to reprise his role as Jean-Luc Picard for the final season of the series, but he's not alone.

The series is very much going out with a bang, with some of our Star Trek: The Next Generation heroes back in force.

LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Jonathan Frakes, Gates McFadden and Marina Sirtis are all back in business, while Brent Spiner has also returned as Lore.

The stakes have been upped this season, after Picard confronted Dr Beverley Crusher [Gates McFadden] only to find out that Jack [Ed Speelers] was actually his son. And in episode 4, the crew risked their lives to escape a nebula, as well as having to track down a Changeling.

Meanwhile, episode 5 saw the crew have to face up to Changeling saboteurs, with Ro (Michelle Forbes) saving the day.

Stewart told USA Today of the new season: "It's not a reunion; it's an emergency. This is the final hope we have with these people because the whole planet – the whole galaxy – is under threat.

"Profoundly serious. I was intrigued by that. And I was finally able to persuade ["Picard" executive producer Terry Matalas] that I would not wear the uniform. It's uniform-looking, but no badges. It's not his life anymore."
