Good news but what happened to the movie idea? About a year ago now Idris pretty much confirmed it was all in the works but can't see it happening now.
I never saw this at the time but recently watched all 3 series and I enjoyed it, despite the sometimes slightly preposterous plot developments.
Series 1 started off slowly but by the last two episodes it was racing.
Series 2 kept up the pace
The first half of series 3 met expectations but I thought it dropped off a bit at the end.
Still, it was the best mini series I have watched for some time!
I went to Brazil in the summer and met some Americans that were over there at the time. They asked me what I thought of Luther as the show is now massive over there now.I have got series three on DVD but I have not had the chance to watch it yet.
I believe it’s 2 X 1 hour episodes – does anyone know if it’ll air Tues 15th Dec and Weds 16th Dec, or Tues 15th Dec and Tues 22nd Dec?
As The Apprentice will still be on I suspect it’ll air over 2 weeks, but BBC America will be showing both episodes (in a 3 hour slot, with adverts) on Thurs 17th Dec, which would mean they get to see it before us!
Unless we get it in a Tues and Thurs slot in the same week...

They are not showing 2 episodes over the same week. The TV schedules only show programmes until 18th December so it looks like the 2nd episode will be 22nd December.

Thanks. Looks like the US are getting it before us then (well, all of it before us anyway).
It needed to come back, they had to sort out at least what would happen to Luther after it looked like he could get stiched up yet again for the muder of Warren Brown's character.
watched all 3 seasons in the last 3 weeks, it was fun reading this thread after every episode
so much ciriticism during season 1 but then it all went silent lol
i enjoyed it,all 3 seasons were good, standout moments for me were the taxi killer, pig mask killer and that petrol station scene,oh and ripleys goodbye.
any news on film or s4?
I thought the first series was the best with only one slightly dodgy episode, might have been the second one where Luther is begging some kid to give himself up or something. That was a bit cringey I thought but apart from that it was good, hence why it got another series.
Been watching this on Netflix. The shows on there are only 51 minutes long or so. Was it not shown in a 60 minute slot on BBC? Did they have to cut scenes out or something?
I said in a thread not so long ago about a BBC three-part "series" that it wouldn't be long before the Beeb had the nerve to call a two-parter a "series" and here we are....

Sounds like Netflix has some sort of international version, the episodes have always been 57/58 minutes on the BBC.

Great news I love Luther and I am sure Idris loves it too.

Luther is coming back next year for a brand new miniseries! Yes!!!
Filming starts in March next year and i imagine it'll be on screens by late Autumn.

Excellent series, good crime drama, will have The Fall 2 and Broadchurch 2 to fill the void in the meantime!
If only it was a maxi series not a mini one!😜
Can't be done, surely?
Oh well, it's better than nothing.
