While the rumour mill has certainly been churning as of late with reports of filming and casting, the BBC has now announced that Martin Compston, Vicky McClure and Adrian Dunbar are all reprising their roles for a seventh instalment of the beloved BBC crime drama.
The official synopsis for the new episodes reads: "In series 7, AC-12 has been disbanded and rebranded the Inspectorate of Police Standards. Anticorruption work has never been more difficult and in this challenging climate Steve Arnott (Martin Compston), Kate Fleming (Vicky McClure) and Ted Hastings (Adrian Dunbar) are assigned their most sensitive case so far.
"Detective Inspector Dominic Gough, a charismatic officer winning plaudits for a string of takedowns of organised crime, is accused of abusing his position of trust to act as a sexual predator. But is Gough’s case a deliberate distraction from a bigger threat still operating in the shadows?"
"Corruption in this country is supposed to have come to an end while Line of Duty was off air so I’ve been forced to use my imagination.”
Similarly, McClure said in a statement: “It goes without saying I’m so excited Line of Duty is back! Can’t wait to work with Jed, Martin and Adrian again. Belfast, we’ll see you soon!”
Just last month, McClure had played down rumours of a return to AC-12, telling Radio Times magazine that she didn't "have any updates, I’m afraid", regarding the future of Line of Duty.
