THE tension shows on Vicky McClure’s face as she tries to defuse a bomb in a bag in Trigger Point. But Vicky, 38, who plays Met Police explosives expert Lana Washington, can celebrate off screen as the show is ITV’s highest ratings drama in a year — pulling in nearly 10million for its first episode.

Trigger Point viewers have gone wild after recognising Sonya Reeves star Kerry Godliman from hit Netflix series After Life.The new ITV thriller series hit screens last month and sees Line Of Duty legend Vicky McClure take centre stage as a bomb disposal operative Lana Washington. During the latest episode, which aired on Sunday 30 January, Sonya had several interactions with Lana as they looked into evidence and forensics from a recent bomb factory raid.

Vicky McClure said what every Tigger Point viewer was thinking following episode two.

ITV viewers were back for some more edge-of-your-seat drama on Sunday night thanks to Trigger Point.

One of the stars of new drama Trigger Point has urged viewers to do just one thing after the debut episode received complaints.

ITV’s new action thriller series Trigger Point have spotted a big plot hole in the latest episode and flocked to Twitter to share their thoughts.The series, starring Vicky McClure, Adrian Lester and Mark Stanley, follows Explosives Officer Lana Washington as she attempts to uncover who is behind multiple terrorist attacks.The six part series is made by the creators of Line Of Duty and last week’s episode saw Joel Nutkins, played by Adrian Lester, blown apart.The storyline began as Joel and Lana were called out to counter-terrorism operation in a London housing estate.

He removed the tweet altogether and replaced it with another one, sheepishly confessing: "Ahem…..Seems my last one might have been a little 'too soon'."However, there's one major curveball in this apparent blunder - no-one yet knows whether Adrian's character definitely was killed.Dramatic scenes on last weekend's episode showed Joel looking very worse for wear after a bomb detonated.Co-star Vicky McClure managed to escape the wreckage, but fans feared Adrian's character had not been so lucky.Viewers will have to wait until this Sunday to know the results of the cliff-hanger for certain.Ironically, Adrian had boasted discretion earlier in the month, telling Digital Spy: "I think one of the fun things is that people don't know what's going to happen next."Yet the deleted tweet implies he might have given that away - unless it is all part of a cunning build-up deliberately designed to keep people guessing."Daniel [Brierley]'s script keeps the audience on their toes, drip-feeds the information as all good thrillers should and stays one step ahead of them," Adrian had teased."You have to truly believe that you don't know what's going to happen next and truly believe in the main threat that your characters are facing, otherwise it's boring," he added."You definitely have a feeling that something bad could happen to somebody at some point."Meanwhile, fellow explosives officer Vicky McClure - who plays Lana Washington - revealed that she got into character by wearing the genuine bomb disposal suit that real-life EXPOs don."It just makes everything that bit more authentic," she explained.Unfortunately, she definitely suffered for her art, revealing how challenging it had been to wear during filming in the middle of a

Vicky McClure lit up our screens as DI Kate Fleming on Line of Duty, but is now set to return to our screens as bomb disposal officer Lana Washington in ITV drama Trigger Point. Fans of the show are keen to get to know 38 year old Vicky off-screen as much as they do on – which has led to frantic Google searches to find out who her famous other half is. Vicky is engaged to fellow actor Jonny Owen, 50, and they have been in a relationship for nine years.The pair met in 2013 on the British comedy film Svengali where they played on-screen lovers – and started filming just months after Jonny’s separation from his first wife, Elenor Braines.

ITV's newest drama Trigger Point has been accused of being 'ruined' as the first episode aired.

Line Of Duty’s Vicky McClure heads the cast in this new series, which turns the spotlight on the Metropolitan Police Bomb Disposal Unit. The show is produced by Jed Mercurio – the much-lauded writer of Line Of Duty – so with Vicky in the starring role, comparisons are bound to be drawn between the two dramas. However, the actress tells us her character – former soldier Lana Washington – is very different to Line Of Duty ’s Kate Fleming and the series is far more action packed.

From HBO’s Gossip Girl reboot to Amazon’s hit thriller Nine Perfect Strangers, TV lovers were never left bored. As such, expectations for 2022 are even higher, with viewers more eager than ever to be entertained from the comfort of their sofas.

There is so much pressure on people, especially via social media."The 38-year-old wanted to make a positive impact on viewers watching the six-part series.She continued: "I would like to put some kind of message out there, showing people that you don’t really need make-up."I think it’s important to strip things back and be comfortable.
