Trigger Point will be making its ITV debut on January 23 and it is a police drama like no other. The eye-opening series delves into the traumatic lives of counter-terrorism police officers. Jed Mercurio spoke to Express.co.uk and other media about working with McClure, who plays front line officer Lana Washington.
Trigger Point features McClure as an experienced bomb disposal operative.
She works with Joel Nutkins (Adrian Lester) as a terrorist campaign threatens the city.
Lana’s job is to find out who is behind the attacks before the fatalities escalate.
This is the first time Mercurio has worked with McClure since the final season of Line of Duty.
Speaking to Express.co.uk and other press, he joked: “It was fantastic working with Vicky, it always is.

Speaking about her character, McClure added: “It feels like we’re dealing with somebody going through a lot of life’s tough times and it’s nice to be able to find strength in flawed characters.
“As we go through the series, she becomes more lost as she tries to work out who is planting these bombs and why it’s getting closer to home.
“The way in which the story unfolds is quite surreal. And then in the middle of that, she’s got her own personal issues to deal with, and she’s scared because she’s losing her instinct.
“This show is fascinating because it takes place in a very short space of time, and it’s very fast-paced.
“She’s trying to keep people safe and she’s losing her head a little bit.”
Trigger Point airs on ITV on Sunday, January 23 at 9pm
