Michelle has already left fans hooked on the TV thriller, based on author Harlan Coben's gritty book of the same name.

And she didn't disappoint as she took to the BBC One programme's sofa with former Absolutely Fabulous star Joanna Lumley, 77, who plays her on-screen mother-in-law.

The former Coronation Street actress swept her brunette locks in an up-do and added a pop of orange eyeshadow and thick black mascara to complete her look.

After opening up on her former army veteran character Maya Stern, whose husband Joe (Richard Armitage) is killed in front of her, she went on to tease the rest of the plotline.

Michelle admitted she "read the script and was like 'oh no'," when she realised she would have to have to swear at actress stalwart Joanna while she was in-character as Judith Burkett.

Yet the Our Girl favourite then let slip a huge achievement - this being how she flew the helicopter in one particular scene.

She said: "I flew it - I keep saying I drove it, it's so embarrassing - I flew the helicopter.

"We were flying to Delamere Forest [in Cheshire], there was a scene of going over the forest and that was actually at the right time.

"There was a scene and there was me, the pilot and the cameraman behind so we had to get the shots done. We would never get the chance again.

"I remember taking off and it was a glass bottom helicopter so you literally look down and you could see the floor.

"It was awful.

"So when we got half way there the pilot just said 'do you want to take over, do you want to take control?'

"And I was like 'go on then' and I did!

"I couldn't believe it - unless he was just lying to me."

One fan was quick to gush on X: "Michelle Keegan is so beautiful."

Another then put: "Michelle Keegan is honestly so fireee."

One then added: "Joanna and Michelle are amazing! I have one more episode to go…. fantastic!"

Another commented on the plot and wrote: "Watched it over the last two days. So good that I had to watch the final episode again!!"

In November, Netflix first revealed the first glimpses of Michelle's new project.

It showed that, as part of the plot, Michelle's character installed a nanny-cam to look out for her young daughter, but was shocked to see a man she recognised in her house.

The person she recognised is none other than the husband that she thought was dead.

Detective Sergeant Sami Kierce (played by Adeel Akhtar) then leads the investigation of homicide into Joe's death.

This is while the police officer is grappling with tense secrets of his own - with fans currently gripped as the drama unfolds.
