- After rescuing a train from a suicide bomber, a Scottish Afghanistan War vet is assigned to protect the UK Home Secretary.
- Whilst on a train with his two small children, ex-soldier David Budd, a veteran of the War in Afghanistan, successfully thwarts a suicide bomber. Arriving in London, he is appointed as bodyguard to Home Secretary Julia Montague, who has a brutally direct anti-terror policy. She is grateful to David for his action and opens up about herself, but David's domestic life is not ideal, and Chanel, a former employee whom Julia has sacked, is out for revenge. Meanwhile, David has a secret that he keeps from his charge.—don @ minifie-1
- London Metropolitan Police sergeant David Budd, an Afghanistan War veteran, foils a suicide bomber's plot to blow up the train he is on to London Euston. Due to his actions, both terrorists avoid being shot, enabling them to be arrested without bloodshed. His heroism results in his promotion to serve on the detail of Julia Montague, the Home Secretary. There is tension between them, with Montague's staunch support of the Iraq War and War in Afghanistan and plans to infringe civil liberties by updating RIPA conflicting with Budd's experience as a soldier. Her ex-husband and Chief Whip Roger Penhaligon suspects her of exploiting the terrorist threat, intending to launch a bid to replace the Prime Minister. Budd struggles to deal with both his PTSD and his deteriorating relationship with his wife, who has custody of their two young kids. Budd finds Andy Apsted, an old army friend, in the anti-war Veterans Peace Group, disgusted with his friend's new career, which he fulfills with devoted professionalism, and beyond: volunteering his shirt when the minister is soiled before a TV interviewed.—KGF Vissers
