Trigger Point viewers are all saying the same thing as the fourth episode of the fourth series aired last night (Monday, September 7).

The programme follows Lana Washington (played by Vicky McClure), who heads a Metropolitan Police bomb squad that deals with numerous threats.

Her team has been on the frontline once again as London is "rocked by a wave of devastating bombings."

A synopsis for the fourth series said: "The attackers are the most skilled and dangerous adversaries Lana’s ever faced, and she and her team are at the heart of the race to track them down and prevent further casualties.

"But as the hunt for the bombers intensifies, unsettling cracks begin to appear in the investigation."

As the current series heads into its final two episodes, events have certainly been dramatic, but it appears to have gotten too ridiculous for many viewers.
