Trigger Point

Not so sure about all the woke comments but I was generally disappointed with the show. Poor script, run of the mill plot and lots of stupidity. No tension where they thought you would feel it. Light switch scene was rediculas and what bomb squad officer doesn't have their own snips. It might be your cup of tea but it wasn't mine. Ignore the 9s &10s. Fake reviews.

Firstly i want to defend the show, most people reviewing who are moaning about it being unrealistic when it comes to the policing side of things like no sh@t....its a tv show with certain time per episode so they're not going to go all into detail and start breaking out real protocols bomb squads follow...also the key to being good at bomb squad is not to show a bunch of actors what they do so they can show everyone including potential threats! Same for anti terrorism they wont give away any details to tv shows which is true....hence why hardly any help was given to the show by real bomb squads or special police groups...what was people expecting to tune in and see Vicky McClure kitted up doing the death walk like we're watching the Hurt Locker movie?

What i will say and fully agree with is the language and silly decisions the characters make, firstly screaming the F word didn't build tension it just came off bad and makes no sense to scream at someone panicking..also bomb squads would not have a thin police vest and some goggles to deal with bombs...they'll have full on body covered plating with not a bit of skin in sight!

Its not like the line of duty where they can ask for police inside help with the show as everything on the show is not revealing but when it comes to shows about terrorism of course they wont help the show so i dont expect it to be realistic at all, worth the watch but yeah dont expect realism!

Very cheesy with occasional moments of genuine tension but there ends up being so many moments where you end up saying to yourself "really ?" . Disappointing.

It was good but the writing was a bit naff. It's been renewed for season 2 and it would benefit from more depth and character development.

I liked the different bomb disposal scenes and the explosions that did happen were impressive for a TV budget.

The reveal of the culprit wasn't at all surprising but I thought it was a good and robust finale overall.

If this was a Monty Python sketch the end of season 2, episode 2 would be the point when someone would run onto the set and say 'Stop that, it's silly!'.

If I were an 11 year old schoolboy I would enjoy this, unfortunately I haven't been an 11 year old for many years. If you like explosions this is the show for you, if you are looking for anything interesting between the explosions avoid. The actors give strange performances, perhaps they know what they are saying is rubbish. None of the weaknesses of season one have been fixed.

It's sad and worrying that ITV thinks this one of their flagship shows. We have been through a golden age for TV but for free to air viewers this show is proof that it's over.
