'We're making sure that it feels epic'

Vicky McClure returns as heroic bomb disposal expert Lana Washington in a thrilling new series of Trigger Point

- 

Vicky McClure promises more adrenaline, danger and depth in the explosive third series of Trigger Point. “It’s more exciting,” she said. “We made it bigger. We've got new cast members. People that weren't on series two were really excited to be on the show.”

And this year, the hit drama doesn’t just go bigger — it gets bolder. “We're moving with the times,” Vicky, 42, added. “We're making sure that it feels epic.”

Once again, the Line Of Duty star returns as bomb disposal expert Lana Washington — while also taking the reins as an executive producer. Series three opens with a nerve-wracking emergency — Lana is called to a warehouse where a man is trapped inside a taxi. A sign nearby orders him to “confess” to a mysterious crime — or die trying to escape. What first appears as a one-off hostage crisis quickly spirals.

As panic builds up, Lana realises she's hunting a serial perpetrator.
