The director can’t wait for us to see Vigil on BBC One
Fans went wild when the BBC released a brand-new trailer for the series last week.

Showing an image from the trailer, she wrote on Twitter: “And here it is live on @BBCOne directly after the #UKRvENG Euros quarterfinals!

Lauren Lyle confirms guest role
Scottish actress Lauren Lyle is one to watch, and she has revealed she’s appearing in Vigil.
Posting the trailer on her Instagram account, the 27-year-old Outlander star teased fans that the series was “coming soon”.
Lauren has recently landed the lead role in the new ITV Karen Pirie series, which is based on crime writer Val McDermid’s best-selling novels.
In the new series, Lauren will play a detective who must investigate a historic murder that has been the subject of a true-crime podcast.
Stephen Dillane’s in it too!
Why didn’t we clock that Stephen Dillane is in Vigil?
The acclaimed Game Of Thrones actor has got legions of fans across the world and he appeared very briefly in the first trailer released in May.
Now, in the new trailer he appears more.
Playing a mysterious Admiral we saw him barking, “It’s a staggering act of hostility!”
Does Stephen’s character know something that DCI Amy Silva does not? And who is perpetrating such an act of hostility?
What is Martin Compston doing now he’s finished filming Vigil?
Line of Duty star Martin Compston – complete with Scottish accent – plays Petty Officer Burke in Vigil.
But now he’s finished with Vigil, he’s busy filming The Rig – a TV show set on the Kinloch Bravo oil rig, with Martin playing Communications Officer Fulmer Hamilton.
