    The Street, Jimmy McGovern's powerful, multi-award-winning drama, returns to BBC One for an eagerly anticipated third series.

    The show won British TV's top industry awards for two consecutive years, picking up both the 2007 and 2008 BAFTA and Royal Television Society Awards for best drama series, as well as international Emmys.

    As with the first two series, McGovern has mentored up-and-coming writers to create uncompromising potent stories about people who live on the same street in the North West of England.

    The cast list boasts Timothy Spall, reprising again his memorable role as the lovable Eddie. The high-calibre line-up also features: Bob Hoskins, Frances Barber, Anna Friel, Daniel Mays, Jonas Armstrong, Joseph Mawle, Stephen Graham and Ruth Jones.

    Back on BBC Monday 13th of July

    This show is excellent. I've only started to watch it over the past few weeks. Stephen Graham is in it tonight (of This Is England/Public Enemies fame) and he's awesome so far.

    I knew I recognised the guy from last night before plus it had the girl from DinnerLadies and Shameless plus Nessa from Gavin and Stacey. Great episode.

    This is an really outstanding show. The best episode for me so far this season was the Soldier coming back from Afganistan with the facial scars. A brilliant performance by Jonas Armstrong (Robin Hood), which I wouldn't have expected.

    I think this is to be the last season as Granada haven't renewed and Jimmy Mc Govern does not want to work with a different production team. Everyone seems to be queing up to work on the show with him.

    Yeah that was a really great episode and I was pleasantly surprised by how good Jonas Armstrong was. I thought he was great support in last nights episode too.

    My favourite one so far is the one with Bob Hoskins. His line at the end was awesome, "You're bringing him up like a tart so I'm going to treat him like one!" :D
