She's back in a demanding new role.

We know her from Corrie, Ordinary Lives and a brilliant turn on Channel 5's Lip Sync Battle, but Michelle Keegan is getting serious for her return to our telly boxes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8dgzFH0c70 Back in September 2014, BBC debuted New Girl starring Lacey Turner which received great critical acclaim. Set in Afghanistan, the drama centred around Molly Dawes, a medic helping the British soldiers while fighting abroad. In June 2015, it was announced there would be a second series, with Michelle Keegan taking up the lead role of Corporal Georgie Lane. The trailer for the hotly anticipated second series has arrived, and it does not disappoint. People will recognise former Skins star Luke Pasqualino making an appearance in the trailer as a fellow soldier. Considering this is the first major acting job for Michelle since her days as barmaid Tina on the cobbles of Coronation Street, many fans are excited to see what this season of Our Girl will hold. Many took to Twitter to express excitement for the upcoming series. https://twitter.com/michellefansx/status/766638277441024000?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/our_keegan/status/767006055297642497?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/our_keegan/status/767635289678483456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/chante_26159/status/767595419698339840 https://twitter.com/michkeegan/status/767398153456869376 Read more: thumbnail_SNAPCHATUK
