The Dry is back!
Yes, RTÉ confirmed that the series will return for a third and final season.
Roisin Gallagher will return as recovering alcoholic Shiv Sheridan, alongside regular cast members from the series.
The final season will air in 2026.
What can we expect for the new series?
Well the synopsis reads: “The Sheridans are back and they’re about to face their biggest challenge yet. Series 3 unearths a huge family secret that throws everyone off kilter. Will this shocking revelation upend already fragile relations for good, or could this be the missing piece that will finally fix the Sheridans’ broken puzzle?
“Amongst all this emotional upheaval, the Sheridan’s must face the fact that change is inevitable. As the family desperately try to forge new lives amidst the betrayals of the past, destructive patterns start to emerge, and soon it’s Shiv who might not want to face some hard truths. As the family gathers for the series finale, Shiv realises there’s only so long she can blame her family, her bad ex and even the drink: what if the real problem in Shiv’s life is just…herself?”
Writer Nancy Harris said: “I am truly thrilled The Dry is coming back for another round with Shiv and the Sheridan family. It’s been a joy to work with Paddy Breathnach, Emma Norton and this truly gifted ensemble cast to tell this story.
“Season three digs into the roots of the Sheridans dysfunctional dynamic, unearthing long held secrets and taking our characters in new and unexpected directions. It’s going to be a wild ride and we can’t wait to share it with our audience.”
We can’t wait to watch!
