BBC reveals when The Detectives: Fighting Organised Crime will return to screens
The crime docuseries disappeared from the TV schedule earlier this year.
The BBC has revealed that The Detectives: Fighting Organised Crime will continue later this summer after the series disappeared from the TV schedule.
The crime docuseries, which followed the Greater Manchester Police over two years as they battled organised crime, aired its first two episodes in March before leaving our screens, despite being advertised as a five-part series.
While fans were confused by the limited number of episodes available to watch, the BBC has since explained why the remaining three episodes are yet to air.
Replying to a viewer on Twitter who asked about the rest of the series, the BBC iPlayer wrote: "The first two episodes were self-contained narratives.
"There are three remaining episodes that are planned later in the summer which follow one complete story. Keep an eye on the programme page for dates nearer the time."
