From the fifth series of Line of Duty, to new episodes of Killing Eve, Peaky Blinders, Keeping Faith and more, the broadcaster’s new year super trailer is packed with teases for the most-anticipated upcoming dramas.

That also includes some pretty intriguing shots of Ralph Spall coming up against a Martian tripod in The War of The Worlds, Doctor Foster star Suranne Jones as the formidable Anne Lister in Gentleman Jack and Aidan Turner reprising the titular role in the last series of Poldark.

And the best thing about all this? A lot of these shows are expected to land soon, with The War of The Worlds, Line of Duty and Peaky Blinders promised to air early this year.
