Trigger Point series 4 returns with all previous seasons on STV Player

Trigger Point returns for its fourth season this Sunday, August 30, at 9pm on STV, with Vicky McClure reprising her role as Lana Washington, a bomb disposal operative with the Metropolitan Police bomb disposal squad. The first three seasons have been re-added to STV Player, allowing viewers to catch up before the new episodes air.

What to expect in series four

The high-octane series follows Lana and her team as they face dangerous terrorist threats, diffuse explosive devices, and handle high-stakes counter-terrorism operations. The synopsis for the upcoming season promises that Lana and her fellow explosive officers "continue their quest to keep the capital safe from explosive devices and terrorist threats", with their latest adversaries being a group of "professional mercenaries".

McClure said: "I love working with the team. We have a great time making the show and I cannot wait to continue Lana’s journey on Trigger Point."

Previous seasons available on STV Player

With all three earlier seasons now uploaded to STV Player, existing fans can remind themselves of Lana's story so far, while new viewers can start from the beginning before series four gets underway. The show has been a hit since it first aired in 2022.

The first three seasons have gained praise from critics and viewers alike. One IMDb viewer wrote: "I absolutely love this show. It's probably one of the best ITV dramas ever made along with Red Eye. So many dramatic twists and turns, I thought they did a brilliant job with this series and Vicky McClure as the main character is a perfect choice."

Another added: "I'm thrilled that I came across this series. First off, whoever decides to produce new seasons for series... this is a keeper! I've really liked everything Vicky McClure has been in and this is another. This series is action packed with twists, with tension that makes your toes curl and a tiny drop of relationships between characters."

Trigger Point series four begins on Sunday at 9pm on STV, while series one to three are available to watch now on STV Player.
