<\/p>\nAfter nearly two years away from our screens, Jed Mercurio\u2019s Trigger Point is back for season 3 \u2013 with Lana and the EXPO team facing yet another nail-biting threat.<\/p>\n
Having returned on 26 October, it\u2019s been a long time coming for fans of the ITV series. Known for getting the heart rate pumping, the show has become known as one of TV\u2019s most tense (and often emotional) series. This time, the Bomb Disposal Squad and the Police Counter Terrorism Unit are working together to investigate a brand new bomb threat on the streets of London \u2013 one which is quickly revealed to be the handiwork of someone intent on revenge.<\/p>\n
It didn’t take long for the drama to begin. In the first episode alone, an abandoned taxi with a chemical bomb strapped to its boot is left at an industrial site, with a man trapped inside alongside a note that reads, ‘confess or die.’<\/p>\n
While there\u2019s plenty of fan favourites returning to the EXPO team, there\u2019s also some new faces joining the fold. Here\u2019s everything to know about the cast, old and new, of Trigger Point season three.<\/p>\n

Vicky (Line of Duty, This Is England) is returning to the series as lead character Lana, our explosive ordnance disposal specialist. Fans of the show will know no one\u2019s had it tougher than Lana \u2013 with the explosives officer now grappling with PTSD and tinnitus. Teasing the new series, Vicky said, \u2018She\u2019s not coping. Lana is a strong person, and she likes to see herself as a perfectionist, but I think we very quickly see that\u2019s starting to crumble.\u2019<\/p>\n

Maanav (Prime Target, Line of Duty) is returning to the cast as DCI Amar. Armed with a big new promotion, Maanuv said of Amar, \u2018He\u2019s a very good detective because he’s a details guy, but he\u2019s not used to being in charge, and he\u2019s not necessarily equipped to come head-to-head with such a strong personality as Lana.\u2019<\/p>\n
