Adrian Dunbar goes on holiday to German-only hotels to avoid being recognised by UK based Line of Duty fans. His character, Superintendent Ted Hastings, is so beloved he often gets people coming up to him on the street but tries to escape for some peace and quiet.
The Co Fermanagh actor said he recently tried this when travelling to Majorca but was still spotted by fans from the UK. Speaking on the Out To Lunch podcast, the 63-year-old said: “I count myself lucky that most of the people I know like the character of Ted Hastings, love the series so therefore when I’m approached by the public it’s usually with a big smile and ‘Oh my god it’s you, can we have a photograph?’ and so forth.
“I got recognised a couple of times, a really lovely woman from Paisley in Scotland and actually another couple from
Edinburgh.”
