Trigger Point cast – Vicky McClure plays Lana Washington
Trigger Point is a nail-biting thriller following a Bomb Disposal Squad known as ‘Expo’.
Vicky McClure leads the cast as front line officer Lana Washington.
She’s an experienced operative, but becomes reckless and out of control as she is pushed to breaking point during a terrorist summer campaign.
She said: “So grateful to be working with Jed again. I’m really looking forward to creating a strong, bright and troubled character in Lana Washington.
“Daniel Brierley has produced a brilliant and nail-biting script. I can’t wait to get started later this year.”
Of course, Nottingham-born Vicky is best known for playing DI Kate Fleming in Line of Duty.
She made her name playing Lol in the film This is England, and the subsequent three TV series that followed.
Vicky, 38, is also famous for playing Karen White in Broadchurch, and creepy stalker Paula in The Replacement.
Basically, Vicky can do no wrong as far as we’re concerned.
