Life and Death Row first made its debut on the BBC in 2014 and is now set for a huge comeback.

Three new episodes of the documentary series will explore the issue of the death penalty in a dramatically changed America.

The series followed the story of how young people see capital punishment.

It also explored the lives of people whose life as been changed or shaped by the policy in the US.

Cameras rolled in a world that is dominated by the influences of celebrity culture and social media, combined with an uncertain political landscape.

As the country is more divided, trust in the justice system to deliver the correct verdict may be at its worst.

The series shows how high-profile campaigns over innocence combined with exonerations of potential suspects have highlighted how fragile the system is.

This is combined with a series of executions that were botched, leaving people devastated.

A changing moral compass in society combined with advancements in science and technology have now cast doubts on historical judgments.

Some jurors have even spoken out to say how they have regretted past convictions.

Social media and the rising interest of true crime has also given a platform to celebrities, podcasters and politicians to enter the debate.

However, there are still crimes where some consider that the death penalty is the only real justice they could ever imagine.

Some families of victims have felt bewildered and failed by the court system with all of the delays and repeated appeals.

Especially how social media could be weaponised as amateur sleuths pick holes in long-standing cases.

The set of new episodes will follow the cases of prisoners as they face the prospect of death row in modern times.

One is trying to prove his innocence with a podcast and celebrity backing, whilst another is on trial in one of the states where a unanimous jury vote is no longer required.

The BBC has also announced the return of the BBC Three series Our War, which marks the end of the British campaign in Helmand.

The story of the war in Afghanistan will be told through the words and pictures of soldiers involved in the battle.
