The crime drama is popular on both sides of the pond

However, for those who missed the episode when it aired, you can catch up on CBS's official streaming partner, Paramount Plus. If you're not already a Paramount+ customer, you can sign up to the streaming service for $4.99 a month or for $49.99 for a year. The annual subscription allows you'll save 18% off your monthly price. They also currently offer a seven-day free trial which can be cancelled at any time before that first week.

Meanwhile, for those in the UK who are desperate to see the new episodes, the bad news is that you'll have to wait a little while until season three is made available to watch.

As of yet, the new season hasn't been given an official release date in the UK, where it airs on NOW and Sky Witness. It's worth keeping in mind that season one came out six months after its initial release in the US and for the second outing, there was a four month delay. We, therefore, think it is safe to assume The Equalizer season three won't be available to watch in the UK until early 2023.
