The third season of HBO and BBC’s investment bank drama Industry is here – but how can fans in the UK watch the new episodes?
Industry follows the lives of a group of bankers working in the London office of the fictional company Pierpoint & Co, focusing on a group of recent graduates as well as their mentors.
The third season of the drama series was officially commissioned in October 2022, just weeks after the premiere of season two.
A statement from HBO vice president of programming Kathleen McCaffrey said: “Industry reached new heights in season two, cementing its status as a buzzy hit with addictive storytelling, layered characters, a breakneck pace, and keen observations about contemporary workplace dynamics.”
In a review of the first season of the show, NME said of Industry: ”It makes the world of banking look deeply unappealing, but makes it very fun to watch others suffer through it.”
The show has proved to be a launching pad for a number of its stars, with Marisa Abela, who plays the wealthy graduate Yasmin, having recently portrayed Amy Winehouse in the biopic Back To Black.

When is Industry season three out in the UK?
Industry is a co-production between HBO in the US and the BBC in the UK, with the previous two seasons airing on the respective platforms.
The first episode of season three of the show aired in the US on HBO on Sunday (August 11), with the remaining seven episodes in the season to go out on consecutive Sunday nights up until September 29.
The first episode did not, however, air on the BBC at the same time. A specific air time for the new season has not been announced by the Corporation, although they have confirmed it will arrive “later this year”.
