Line Of Duty star Adrian Dunbar has defended the finale of the hit cop show – but admitted it may not have been as “dramatically satisfying” as viewers would’ve liked.
And the Northern Irishman, who plays Superintendent Ted Hastings in the popular BBC series, said if the show returns again, he wasn’t sure it would run for six episodes.
The sixth series of the police drama, which aired from March to May in 2021, was a ratings success, with its dramatic finale – which was watched by over 15.4M people - revealing the identity of the mysterious corrupt officer H as Detective Superintendent Ian Buckells, played by Nigel Boyle.
