Lana will return.
After a thrilling finale, ITV have confirmed their bomb disposal drama Trigger Point will return for a second season.
Vicky McClure will reprise her role as Lana Washington in another six episode-long season, but the plot is being kept under tight wraps for now.
What we do know is that Trigger Point season 2 will land on ITV in 2023, so fans won't have to wait too long to see what happens next to Lana.
Writer Daniel Brierley commented: “I’m honoured and excited to be given the chance to continue Lana’s story. I feel there’s many more twists and turns in her future. It’s been thrilling to see how the public have responded to our show and I can’t wait to see what they will make of the next instalment!”

ITV's Head of Drama, Polly Hill added: “I am so delighted to see Trigger Point return. Vicky is stunning as Lana and it’s brilliantly produced by Jed and HTM, but I also want to congratulate Daniel for his scripts. To have held the audience in a state of tension for 6 hours so brilliantly, you can’t believe it’s his first show. I can’t wait to see where series two takes Lana and her team.”
