BBC Four has released a teaser trailer for The Bridge series 3, which sees Saga Norén go it alone after her partner Martin Rohde is arrested for murder.

Set to Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt (more on the making of that amazing song here), the teaser sees Saga sitting in her car near the titular bridge, tensely gripping the steering wheel as rain falls.

The series will see her investigate the murder of Helle Anker on a her own, a high-profile speaker on gender issues.

Though Martin’s arrest puts him out of the frame anyway, rumours circulated recently that actor Kim Bodnia left the show because he disagreed with the direction the show creators were taking his character.

He told Digital Spy his departure was “very natural” however and purely down to the show’s narrative.

According to the site, Anker’s ‘brutal killing is only the first in a series of gruesome crimes, as the episodes will revolve around the concept and structures of family.’

The Bridge season 3 is expected to arrive on BBC Four in November.
