Returning as explosives officer, or 'expo', Lana Washington, McClure can be seen in the trailer asking whether this is "the last one", going on to admit that "these bombers know how we work". Could Lana and her team be about to face their toughest mission yet?

Julie Graham has been confirmed to star as new character Commander Nia Quentin. In the trailer, we see her state that this could be "the biggest terror attack this country has seen" before getting a glimpse of Robin Hood's Jonas Armstrong saying: "Whatever happens here today, will make things better."

Clearly one of the new villains of the series, it's anyone's guess as to what his character's vendetta is, but we do see Lana interrogate him so will he provide her with the vital details she needs?

You can watch the trailer below.
