I’m off to the launch of a new ITV drama series which co-stars Liz White – unforgettable as Annie in Life On Mars.

So while I’m away, here are just 10 more things to watch out for when episode one bursts on to the screen at 9pm tomorrow:
1. A figure on the edge of a rooftop.
2. A classified document.
3. Alex Drake’s words as she responds to a 2008 response call, later echoed by another character in 1981.
4. Who is villain Arthur Layton speaking to on his mobile phone?
5. The name of the boat Alex wakes up on.
6. The date on Gene Hunt’s computer.
7. Arthur Layton’s 1981 T-shirt.
8. A harmonic hairspray joke – see YouTube video link below.
9. A tender moment involving Shaz.
10. The classy closing 95 seconds.
