Monday Blow Up

SEVEN, 7.30pm

Friday Traces

ABC, 8.30pm

So you’ve stuck with this moody forensic crime drama and now you’re champing at the bit for tonight’s season nale. Will there be a happy ending or will gritty realism emerge as the victor? Perhaps most pressing, will there be a third season of this Scottish crime confection? Season three still has a question mark over it, so tonight’s drama might conclude with a cli anger, or perhaps there’s redemption in store for all, including lab assistant Emma (Molly Windsor). In what could be the series’ last hurrah, re expert Sarah (Laura Fraser, Breaking Bad, above) works with McKinven (Michael Nardone) to prevent another explosion – and hopefully extinguish any lingering mystery.
