As the show began, Vicky McClure returned as explosives expert Lana Washington, leading her team in a high-stakes mission to defuse a bomb on a lorry en route to the Bank of England. Although they successfully disabled the device, it didn't prevent other bombs from being triggered simultaneously throughout the city. Meanwhile, DCI Amar and DS Helen Morgan (Natalie Simpson) were investigating leads on the bomb's origin, which led them to an unoccupied office.
In a pivotal scene, Amar opened a door containing a pressure-sensitive explosive release, which detonated instantly, leaving his fate uncertain. As the episode concluded, it was clear that Amar had perished, with Helen surveying his lifeless body, not entirely surprised by the hidden explosive.
In a recent Q&A, Maanuv Thiara revealed that he was initially devastated by the news of his character's demise but soon came to understand the narrative significance. The actor shared the emotional experience of filming the pivotal scene, describing it as "tough" due to the glass and dust on set. Thiara also praised his on-screen partner Natalie Simpson, with whom he had developed a strong on-screen chemistry.
Trigger Point season four continues to captivate audiences on ITV1 and ITVX, with fans left wondering how the series will move forward without the beloved character of DCI Amar Batra.
