Line of Duty star Adrian Dunbar hints season 7 announcement could be 'weeks or months' away

Line of Duty is, understandably, one of the most popular TV shows in recent history.

From a gripping storyline to a great cast, including Scottish (and Glaswegian) legends Kelly MacDonald and Martin Compston, it's no surprise that people want to see it again.

And after the season six finale of BBC hit drama, by Jed Mercurio, the demand for more episodes is at an all-time high - and it could happen soon.

According to the Radio Times, fans are in for some good news according to one cast member after Adrian Dunbar, who plays Superintendent Ted Hastings, appeared to hint that there could very well be a season seven following his apperance on Good Morning Britain (GMB).

During the show, host Susanna Reid asked the actor whether AC-12 would return to our screens, to which Dunbar replied: "Well yes, we really hope so. I mean everyone is kind of gunning for it, so yeah. I'm sure the public want it."

He added: "So we're keeping our fingers crossed. Within the next few weeks or couple of months we might hear something, so that will be good."

The 64-year-old actor did not say whether it would be a full season or a one-off episode but should it return, it would be up to Mercurio.

He added: "The story can continue, put it that way. In terms of the story finishing, I think it was a really interesting ending."

Previously, the actor had also told the Radio Times magazine that he didn't believe Buckells was 'H' saying: "Yes! He’s not ‘H’.

"We just got the guy we could actually pin a charge on. We didn’t get ‘H’, we got Buckells, the patsy.

"There’s a scene when we look at each other and think: ‘Really? This t**t?’ He’s a distraction."
