The acclaimed drama will begin its last run on Sunday 8th August.

The UK release date for the third and final season of Pose has been revealed. 

Its first episode will premiere on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer on Sunday 8th August. The subsequent six episodes will also then become available to stream on the service but you can catch them as they’re broadcast weekly if you’d prefer. 

Created by Ryan Murphy, Glee’s Brad Falchuk and Steven Canals, Pose is set amongst the influential LGBTQ+ underground drag ballroom scene of the late 80s and early 1990s in New York City. 

This third season will jump ahead to the year 1994 during the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis in the United States. 

“Ballroom is a distant memory for Bianca (Mj Rodriguez) who is struggling to balance being a mother with being a present partner to her new love and her latest role as a nurse's aide," reads the official plot synopsis. 

“Elsewhere, ballroom emcee Pray Tell (Billy Porter) is dealing with unexpected health burdens while in the ballroom scene, a vicious new upstart house forces the House of Evangelista members to contend with their legacy.”

Dominique Jackson, Indya Moore, Dyllon Burnside, Hailie Sahar, Angel Bismark Curiel, Jason A. Rodriguez, Ryan Jamaal Swain and Angelica Ross are all set to return. 

Directing duties will be shared out amongst Canals, Janet Mock and Tina Mabry with Our Lady J joining them on the writing team. 

You can stream seasons 1 and 2 of Pose on Netflix now.
