This season is set to be more "intense" than ever before, with our previously new recruits – Grace (Siân Brooke), Tommy (Nathan Braniff) and Annie (Katherine Devlin) – now more senior in their roles and facing the pressure from all sides of the job.
With Belfast being as much of our character as any of the cast in Blue Lights, there are a raft of local locations used in the filming of the BBC series. Wondering just where the police drama was filmed? Read on for everything you need to know.
Where was Blue Lights filmed?
The third season, like the previous two, were filmed in the city centre with locations including Victoria Park and in the greater Belfast area.
The show's creators have consistently praised the crew in Northern Ireland who help put the show together and, when asked about the overall response to the series being set and filmed in Belfast, series co-creator Adam Patterson said: "We generally get a very warm welcome whenever we are on location in Belfast.
In terms of some of the new locations used in the season 3 plot, he continued: "Series three looks at a different side of Belfast. Private members’ clubs where people do what they want. Big houses with high security gates in which residents feel above the law. In many ways it’s about white-collar criminals who consider themselves to be beyond the reach of our response officers."
Patterson continued: "Stylistically, in series two we wanted to evolve and show more of Belfast, and I don’t just mean having more shots of officers in Belfast, but standalone shots of the city that mean something to the storyline.
"We really worked hard to find the tapestry and the blanket imagery that would lead into our worlds and people, and that led to it feeling more visceral and real. We wanted to show more of this place that we love but that is still in many ways troubled."
Where is Blue Lights set?
Co-creator Adam Patterson said of the series: "We wanted to make a show that we were proud of, that people in Northern Ireland loved, and a show they felt represented the place we all love. We invested a lot of ourselves in the first series."
"These things affect all of us, regardless of where we are from, so perhaps that had something to do with why it seemed to resonate so much."
What year is Blue Lights set in?
Speaking about the show's timeless quality, co-creator Adam Patterson previously told RadioTimes.com: "I think I speak for everyone who I know in the world and say it really felt like a horrible flashback from a time that we all thought we'd left behind. But a reminder as to why the show is so important."
