Trigger Point

-

ITV, 9pm

Produced by Line Of Duty creator Jed Mercurio and starring the BBC police corruption thriller's Vicky McClure – who plays DI Kate Fleming – this new series is high-octane drama.

Following a team of bomb-disposal experts, the story hits the ground running as the experience­d Lana Washington (McClure) and colleague Joel Nutkins (Adrian Lester, right with McClure) are called out to a council estate.

After the residents have been cleared out, they have to find out if the call was a hoax – but if there is a bomb, where is it, and can they defuse it before it goes off? As the seconds tick by, the tension rises, punctuated only by the knowing banter between these hardened profession­als.

Not the most relaxing viewing just before bedtime, but thriller fans will know it's their duty to watch. ★★★★★
