More unfiltered action from The Agency on BBC Scotland

The BAFTA Scotland-winning reality show The Agency: Unfiltered is back for a third series…

This third run of episodes offers up an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Scotland’s largest influencer agency, Aquarius Creative. With a new office, new influencers and a brand new TikTok Academy, this series promises even more drama, ambition, and glamour than ever before.

The spotlight once again shines on Aquarius’s co-founders, Kirsten Cameron and Amy Moore, as they navigate the challenges of running their growing influencer marketing agency. With their move to a stunning new Hamilton office—seven times larger than their previous space— and managing an expanding roster of influencers from across the UK, the agency girls are busier than ever.

This third series also brings an exciting new twist: the Aquarius Academy. Over 5-weeks, Kirsten and Amy put six of Scotland’s most promising up-and-coming TikTokers to the test, setting them challenges to see if they have what it takes to join Aquarius Creative. With only one winner, the competition is intense, emotions run high, and dramatic twists leave Kirsten and Amy facing tough decisions.

Fans can also look forward to catching up with familiar faces as Abigail struggles with the future of her handbag business, Megan takes a financial gamble to grow her podcast, and Maggie considers her future with her long-term boyfriend. Newcomer Megan Gray also opens up about balancing motherhood with her influencer career.

In the first episode, which airs tonight, it’s week one of the Aquarius Academy, and Kirsten and Amy welcome six unsigned Scottish content creators to their new office in Hamilton. Competing for a spot on Aquarius Creative’s books, the TikTokers face their first challenge: to create a video that jumps on a current TikTok trend. While most of the competing TikTokers feel confident, Livi Purcell struggles with self-doubt about her smaller following compared to the others.

Meanwhile, the agency’s OG influencers face their own issues. Abigail confides in Abbie about her struggles with her handbag business after a disastrous photoshoot last year that led to her losing money. Megan, back from Thailand and recovering from salmonella, shares her plan to visualise her podcast to take it to the next level but worries about the high costs of a studio.

In Manchester, Kirsten and Amy host an event for a new client, joined by some of Aquarius’s influencers based in England, including Georgia Sian, Liv Silverman, and The Real Housewives of Cheshire’s Ellie Egar. During the event, Liv confides in Georgia about the challenges of balancing life between Dubai and England while managing brand deals.

Back in Scotland, Kirsten and Amy review the TikTokers’ videos to crown the challenge winner, but a shocking discovery forces them to deliver a dramatic ultimatum that could change the competition.

The Agency: Unfiltered, BBC Scotland channel at 10.30 pm after the return of River City. Across the UK on the iPlayer.
