Season three of TV's most addictive and schttteeammy show has yet to finish up, but already The Affair has been commissioned for a fourth. The news was announced at the TCA winter press tour yesterday by Showtime network president and CEO David Nevins.

The third season of the award-winning show picked up last November three years after the events of the second season, where Noah (Dominic West) was released from prison following his shocking admission at the murder trial of Scott Lockhart. Alison also made a return after some time away to see her daughter Joanie, who was being raised by Cole (Joshua Jackson) and Luisa (Catalina Sandino Moreno). Meanwhile, Helen's (Maura Tierney) life appeared to be going great on the outside but underneath it all she's still struggling.

In summary, there's still a load of intrigue and drama left in this show that we can't see them getting a chance to wrap up by the end of season three, so thankfully there's more on the way.

Catch The Affair on Sky Atlantic on Mondays at 9pm.
