Apple TV's acclaimed science fiction mystery drama Silo has returned for its third season on Friday, July 3, following a break of more than a year. Set in a bleak dystopian future, the series adapted from Hugh Howey's novels follows the residents of an enormous underground bunker housing 10,000 people taking refuge from a poisonous outside world.
Rebecca Ferguson leads the thriller as Juliette Nichols, an engineer who uncovers a massive conspiracy at the centre of the Silo after a series of mysterious deaths. Season 3 runs for 10 episodes until September 4.
