Laura Aikman has joined the cast of Bluestone 42 series three.
The Waterloo Road actress will appear in the latter half of the BBC Three comedy series, which follows the lives of a bomb disposal team in Afghanistan.
Aikman will play a high-threat-bomb disposal expert called Ellen Best, who finds it hard to fit in with the rest of the group.
The actress said: "It's been awesome to join the cast of Bluestone 42, especially as I was already a fan of the show.
"It's also given me an amazing opportunity to learn so much about the army and make some amazing new friends, who I may never otherwise have met."
Returning cast members include Matthew Lewis (Harry Potter), Oliver Chris (Breathless), Katie Lyons (The Crimson Petal And The White) and Tony Gardner (Last Tango in Halifax).
Bluestone 42 will return to BBC Three later in 2015.
