A new trailer for upcoming BBC drama Vigil has dropped – and fans can’t wait to watch it.

Rose Leslie as DS Kirsten Longacre assists DCI Silva with her investigations.
But the teaser makes it clear – from showing the cramped conditions underwater to claustrophobic questions about confined spaces – that the pressure will be on… and very, very tight.
What else is teased in the new Vigil trailer?
Resistance to the investigation is suggested by a Commander, played by Paterson Joseph. When DCI Silva indicates she believes she is investigating a murder, he reacts: “That’s absurd.”
It is also suggested that nobody is beyond suspicion. “If you’re asking who’s capable…? Anybody,” Shaun Evans’ character pronounces.
Furthermore, a potential romantic involvement between DCI Silva and DS Longacre is hinted at. As well as the colleagues being shown embracing, Silva also references how they have “good shorthand”.
