Vicky McClure drama Trigger Point will be making a return to ITV but it's not all good news.
Known for her role as Kate Fleming in Line Of Duty, Vicky now stars as bomb expo Lana Washington in hit ITV drama Trigger Point. The show has had two series so far and it has now been confirmed that a third series is on its way - but not for a while.
The first series began with the shock death of her colleague Joel Nutkins and more heartbreak continues for Lana throughout the series as she tries to navigate a credible threat from terror groups across the capital.
Vicky stars in the lead role of Lana Washington and also executive produces the series. Eric Shango, Nabil Elouahabi, Natalie Simpson and Maanuv Thiara are all returning for the new series.

In the new series, Lana and her team face a new bomb threat. Someone is out there targeting individuals and demanding revenge. Will the Bomb Disposal Squad get there in time to save those being targeted?
However, fans will be disappointed to learn that it may be some time before the show returns as it begins filming in 2025, with no air date yet to be confirmed.
Vicky shared of the new series: "Trigger Point is back! We're all so excited to get going. Having had such a positive response to the previous two series, we want to make the next series even more exciting, keep everyone on the edge of their seats whilst getting to know even more about the brilliant characters in the show.
"Lana is such a complex character to play, it’s a joy for an actor to play a role with as many layers as Lana."
Creator Jed Mercurio added: "Thank you to all the Trigger Point viewers who have made the series such a success. Thanks to our fantastic crew and brilliant cast led by the amazing Vicky McClure.
"We’re thrilled ITV, together with All3Media International, have commissioned a third season of twists, turns, bangs and blasts."
ITV's Head of Drama Polly Hill shared:"I am delighted that Trigger Point will be returning for a third series and Vicky McClure will be reprising her role as Lana Washington. The whole cast are amazing in this series and HTM are a great team to work with. There's going to be lots more twists and turns and of course explosions in this third series, viewers are going to love it!"
