The army medic is also tasked with training up some new recruits, as she says they’re ‘going to need bedding in.’

As the trailer reveals the team heading into the dangerous territory, Georgia learns that a hospital has been targeted by the local warlord.

Even though it’s now been several series since Elvis (played by Luke Pasqualino) was tragically killed, Georgie still seems to be struggling with her fiancé’s passing, as she tries to reason with a local woman who has been targeted by Omar.

She tells her: ‘My fiancé was killed on a mission to get Omar, the same warlord who killed your husband and is now targeting you.’

As the trailer features snapshots of an explosion followed by some form of pursuit, it seems that Georgie continues to be haunted by flashbacks of Elvis.

She emotionally says: ‘I just keep being reminded of Elvis, I don’t think I can do this anymore.’
