Chatting about season three, BBC Cymru Wales Head of Commissioning Nick Andrews said: "Keeping Faith is a fantastic show and I’m delighted that it will return for a third series. A record-breaker on iPlayer, it has a passionate following of fans and is characteristic of the high-quality drama being produced in Wales right now and enjoyed by people across the UK. Looking ahead, the pace of great made-in-Wales telly shows no sign of slowing down."

According to Telly Mix, the series will be available on BBC iPlayer sometime in February - and we can't wait to binge-watch the drama!
