ITV has already released it’s schedule for this Sunday January 21, and Trigger Point is not on it, instead Vera will air in the 9pm slot. Therefore, our best guess is that the second series of Trigger Point will premiere on ITV1 on Sunday January 28, at 9pm, but this has not been officially confirmed by ITV.

Like the first series, the second season of Trigger Point will contain six episodes which will air weekly on ITV1 before being released on ITVX as a box set.

Season one of the thriller series is currently available to stream on ITVX, an ad supported free service where you can watch ITV shows and a variety of films. You can also watch the series ad free on BritBox, or buy it on Apple TV, Amazon, and the Sky Store.
