http://www.skymedia.co.uk/strikeback3Sky 1 HD is proud to announce the return of the explosive series, Strike Back. The third series is sure to set adrenaline levels racing once again when it hits the screens later this year! Strike Back is a huge hit for Sky 1 HD, with series 2 averaging an impressive 1.1m per episode. What's more, the new series is now available for a brand to sponsor.
**For details on our exclusive Strike Back competition, see below**
Based on Chris Ryan's hit novel, Strike Back has proven to be an incredibly successful brand for Sky 1 HD, and Sky’s collaboration with HBO/Cinemax made the scale and ambition of the second season even more exciting. The third season is shaping up to be even stronger, with the aim of it being the highest-octane, action packed drama on British Television.
The third series will once again be a co-production between Sky and HBO/Cinemax and will be produced by Left Bank Pictures. Strike Back follows stealth British military unit Section 20 who join forces with a U.S Special Forces operative when a resourceful international terrorist group plots a major attack.
Researched by the creators and aided by consultants, the explosive show is rooted in the field of counter terrorism, where their operatives' covert efforts are never publicly acknowledged, their leads are few, their choices are difficult and their results often come at a steep cost.
