TV3 GROUP RELEASE

IMMEDIATE: Friday 14th March, 2014.

TV3 returns to Southfork for a brand new season of Dallas.

Dallas is back for a new round of backstabbing, feuding and passion!

The third season premiere kicks off with the Ewings on top, having vanquished Cliff Barnes and taken over his company.

The new season of Dallas airs on Monday 17th March 2014 at 10pm on TV3.

Based on one of the most popular television dramas of all time, the series centres on the Ewing clan; an enormously wealthy Texas family whose sibling rivalries, romantic betrayals, corruption and even acts of murder are legendary.

Secrets, schemes and shady alliances abound at the Southfork ranch in Dallas, Texas, as the next generation of Ewings, along with Ewing patriarch Bobby Ewing (Patrick Duffy), now the senior member of the family following the death of his older brother, J.R. Ewing, and Sue Ellen Ewing (Linda Gray), J.R.'s former wife, take ambition and deceit to new levels.

Following the death of his revered father, John Ross Ewing (Josh Henderson) is out to prove that he can be just as powerful an ally or enemy as the infamous J.R., and John Ross's mother Sue Ellen Ewing, is ready to help her son any way she can.

Christopher Ewing (Jesse Metcalfe), Bobby's adopted son, is determined to make a name for himself and his family in the world of natural gas. But he continues to reel after his engagement to Elena Ramos (Jordana Brewster) fell through and the search for his mother ended with news that she died in 1989. Elena, having received important information about the original deed to her father's land, is now consumed with thoughts of justice for previous wrongs against her family, including her brother, Drew and mother, Carmen, the Southfork Ranch housekeeper. To find that justice, Elena has turned to an old childhood friend, Nicolas Trevino.

The third season premiere kicks off with the Ewings on top, having vanquished Cliff Barnes and taken over his company. The Ewings are united, with Sue Ellen planning a wedding for John Ross and Pamela. But solidarity among them can only last for so long and conflicts arise.

The new season of Dallas premieres on Monday 17th March 2014 at 10pm on TV3.
