Keeping Faith will return for its third and final season, with Eve Myles's beloved Faith Howells and her iconic yellow raincoat lighting up our screens for one last instalment.

The BBC One drama - which is filmed both in Welsh and English - follows formidable lawyer and single mother Faith, who unearths a conspiracy of lies and deceit after the sudden disappearance of her husband.

Set in the fictional Welsh town of Abercorran, the series returns to find Faith in the midst of an ugly divorce and custody battle with husband Evan. While juggling parenting, work and ongoing legal proceedings, someone from Faith's past emerges and threatens her happy future.

Here's everything we know about Keeping Faith series 3 so far.

Eve Myles also revealed what fans can expect from Faith in series 3:" In series 3 you've got a resilient, tougher fighter. We have somebody who is yet to forgive, and somebody who we, as an audience, are yet to know. We know who everybody else in the series is, but until series 3, we don't really know who Faith is. But you'll find out in series 3."

Keeping Faith series 3 returns on BBC One on March 27 at 9pm. Keeping Faith series 1 -2 are available to stream in BBC iPlayer now.
