Winter Warmer Watchlist - The Twelve - Season Three

The third series of The Twelve concluded today. SPOILERS maybe ahead if you have not finished the Binge original.

This season is titled the Cape Rock Killer, where Brett Colby is thrust into a murder trial that involves a long-term friend, as a mystery unravels a murder cold-case is re-opened to find answers, as the twelve jurors find themselves struggling with the life changing experience.

Brett Colby (Sam Neill) leads the trial unravels a deeper mystery, a 1968 cold case murder of two teens is re-opened, and the twelve jurors sworn in for the trial find their own lives changed by the experience.    

Alongside The Twelve main star Neill (Jurassic Park, Peaky Blinders), the third season sees Danielle Cormack (Wentworth, Year Of), Eryn Jean Norvill (Love Me, Preppers), Sarah Peirse (Stateless, We Went Up The Hill), & William Zappa (The Dry, Population: 11) head to WA.

Then in the jury, its Ewen Leslie (The Cry, Top of the Lake China Girl), Phoenix Raei (The Night Agent, Clickbait), Hanah Tayeb (Miles From Nowhere, Raised by Refugees Season 2), Nathalie Morris (Bump, We Were Dangerous), Catherine Moore (Runt, How to Please a Woman), Bolude Watson (Hearts and Bones, Swift Street), Bessie Holland (Fisk, Wentworth), Stuart Daulman (Five Bedrooms, Utopia), Paul Tassone (Poker Face, The Code), Charles Napoleon An (Narrow Road to the Deep North, Last King of the Cross), Libby Stone (The Claremont Murders, Blue Heelers) and newcomer Claire Leach.  

So Binge/Foxtel/Kayo had their big 2026 showcase the other week. Sadly their was no mention of the Twelve or Real Housewives of Sydney returning in 2026.


Could Binge darling, Danielle Cormack as Gabe Nicholls return for a second run, or take Sam Neill's lead role for a fourth season?

I feel the show needs a shake up. Being set in WA is nice for a change, however if somewhere else like Tassie, or Darwin called? That could be fun.

I am not sure this was my favourite of the three seasons. However I did enjoy Cormack V Neil in the courtroom.

OK so I am tired and will drop no spoilers here. So the above spoiler warning was a waste. So for now, all three seasons stream on Binge. Now let's stay in WA for Mystery Road's fourth season, also under the Origin banner, like the third season.

Till next time!
