BBC Line of Duty's Martin Compston has given an update about season seven of the popular police series. Martin Compston, who plays Steve Arnott, has revealed there may be plans to bring the police corruption drama back.
Series six of the programme aired in the spring of 2021 and also stars Nottingham's Vicky McClure as Kate Fleming. Birmingham Live reports that the actor said: "We sat down with Jed recently.
"We’ve always taken a year or two between series. This is no different. We won’t do it for the sake of it. We’ll do it if there’s something to tell.”

Martin Compston said: “It’s amazing knowing people still want us back, especially when colleagues have become my best friends. They and the show really mean a lot to me.”
Speaking to The Guardian recently, Martin's co star Vicky McClure stressed "there's no word" about a seventh season as yet. However, she went on to say that "should [another season] happen, we’re all game".
The ITV Trigger Point star added: “I’ll just stick with the guys. I think when it comes to a close, it will be a natural close for us all. And we’re very close with Jed, so it’s not a business transaction, do you know what I mean?
"This isn’t business, this is our lives and we’ve all created careers from it, and we’ve all got a lot out of it." She "can't imagine" her life without co-stars Adrian Dunbar and Martin, she added.
