NEW CRIME DRAMA The Tower Monday-Thursday, 9pm, ITV1 (box set, ITVX)

The first season of ITV1 crime thriller The Tower saw rookie PC Lizzie Adama (Tahirah Sharif) go on the run after being caught up in the deaths of a police officer and a teenage girl who fell from a block of flats.

Now, as the new four-part season based on the second novel in Kate London's series of books begins, we finally find out the consequences of Lizzie's actions.

'Lizzie's emotionally prepared that she may not have a career going forward - but she's given a chance and doesn't want to mess up,' says Sharif, 30.
