Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a>, star Anjli Mohindra \u2013 who plays medical officer Tiffany Docherty \u2013 suggested that there are plenty more big reveals incoming.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t want to give anything away, but I think the audience is probably starting to feel a sense that they\u2019re getting answers\u2026. but we haven\u2019t even scratched the surface yet,\u201d she hinted.<\/span><\/p>\n Upon winning the part of Tiffany \u201cDoc Doc\u201d Docherty, Mohindra initially received just the first three Vigil scripts by writer Tom Edge<\/a> and so was able to play the same guessing game as the show\u2019s viewers, trying to work out who\u2019s responsible for the murders of Craig Burke (Martin Compston) and Jade Antoniak (Lauren Lyle).<\/p>\n \u201cEverybody fancies themselves as a bit of a detective \u2013 I think that\u2019s why we love crime series in this country so much,\u201d she said.<\/span><\/p> The Vigil cast<\/a> were informed as to the killer\u2019s identity eventually, however \u2013 with Mohindra grateful that the show didn\u2019t ape previous whodunnit Broadchurch, which kept the culprit a secret from the majority of cast until just before filming the reveal. \u201cI feel like maybe the control freak inside me would have a mini meltdown, not having all the facts!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The latest episode of Vigil \u2013 aired on Sunday (5th September) \u2013 contained two big reveals pertaining to Mohindra\u2019s character: Docherty was not only having a secret affair with coxswain Elliot Glover (Shaun Evans), but had falsified drug tests to protect her fellow naval officers.<\/p>\n Though she doesn\u2019t condone her character\u2019s actions, Mohindra has a special insight into the unflinching loyalty displayed in the armed forces. \u201cMy dad worked for the British Army, so we got posted out to Germany for four years when I was an early teenager. So I was familiar with that sort of sacrifice that people in the military and British Armed Forces take on, where they devote such large slices of their lives to work and their colleagues become their world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Vigil started filming in early 2020 but, like so many other TV and film projects, had to pause production due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The shoot later resumed with new safety protocols in place. \u201cIt was frustrating at first, for sure,\u201d Mohindra admitted. \u201cBecause you just want to throw yourself into it and it\u2019s like there\u2019s suddenly a glass wall between everybody, so it was frustrating.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cBut I think also we were all just pinching ourselves in excitement to be back, because there was a real fear that would this be one of those shows that we just couldn\u2019t afford to go back to. So the frustration was quickly forgotten.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Though filming didn\u2019t take place on a real submarine, the authentic set created by designer Tom Sawyer and his team did replicate the sense of claustrophobia experienced by Suranne Jones\u2019 driven investigator DCI Amy Silva.<\/p>\n \u201cThe bunks in the female dorm were tiny,\u201d Mohindra laughed. \u201cI don\u2019t even know how Suranne managed to, like, side-wheel herself into that bunk \u2013 I couldn\u2019t have done it and I\u2019m shorter than her! I\u2019m not too bad with small spaces, but that female dorm gave me heart palpitations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n There wasn\u2019t an intense atmosphere on set, though \u2013 far from it. To hear Mohindra tell it, the cast sometimes had difficult keeping a straight face during particularly dramatic scenes. \u201cThere\u2019s a scene in the boardroom \u2013 that we haven\u2019t seen yet \u2013 where we just couldn\u2019t stop laughing. It wasn\u2019t one person being unprofessional, it was everybody<\/em> \u2013 when one person had just managed to master their giggles, someone else would catch it. If you watch really carefully you might see people trying to subdue their smirks\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Vigil continues on Sundays at 9pm on BBC One \u2013 read our latest Vigil review<\/a> and our biggest Vigil questions<\/a> after episode 3, plus learn more about the Vigil cast<\/a>, the Vigil theme song<\/a> and where Vigil is filmed<\/a>.\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Visit our Drama<\/a> hub for more news and features, or find something to watch tonight with our TV Guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Mohindra, who plays medical officer Tiffany Docherty, has promised plenty more twists to come. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":4130,"template":"","categories":[1],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet.jpg",620,413,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet.jpg",620,413,false],"large":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet.jpg",620,413,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet.jpg",620,413,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2021\/09\/vigil-star-anjli-mohindra-we-havent-even-scratched-the-surface-yet.jpg",620,413,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"importmanagerhub@sprylab.com","author_link":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/author\/importmanagerhubsprylab-com\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"Mohindra, who plays medical officer Tiffany Docherty, has promised plenty more twists to come.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed\/4129"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rss_feed"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/rss_feed"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/24"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4130"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/c01.purpledshub.com\/radiotimes\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\""Vigil\"](\""https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2021\/09\/vigil-episode-4-8ea1b4a.jpeg?quality=90&crop=199px%2C0px%2C878px%2C585px&resize=620%2C413"\" "\\"\"vigil-episode-4\"\\"")
