The buzz around “Line of Duty” is reaching a fever pitch once again. Fans of the gripping police drama have waited years for news on the return of their favorite show. Now, there are fresh updates that are sending social media into a frenzy.
Talk of “Line of Duty” Season 7 has never really died down. Every few months, rumors swirl about AC-12 returning to our screens. But this week, things got even more interesting when Adrian Dunbar, who plays the beloved Superintendent Ted Hastings, made headlines with his statements.
Appearing on a popular talk show, Dunbar was asked about the much-rumored seventh series. He didn’t dismiss the idea. Instead, he hinted that something could be “in the pipeline.” Fans quickly latched onto this, eager for any official word.
Dunbar said, “There’s definitely an appetite for more Line of Duty.” His words quickly made their way onto entertainment sites and fan pages.
Social media has been ablaze since then. Many fans see this as the strongest clue yet that creator Jed Mercurio could return with another season. People are already speculating about possible plot twists and whether all the main characters will come back.
The appetite for another season is huge. Since its debut, “Line of Duty” has become one of the most watched crime shows in the UK. Its blend of suspense, mystery, and real-world police scandals made it a ratings hit.
Previous seasons saw the AC-12 team face crooked cops and corruption at the highest levels. But Season 6 left some questions unanswered. Loyal viewers have long felt the story is not yet finished.
Martin Compston and Vicky McClure, who play Steve Arnott and Kate Fleming, have also hinted they would be up for one more case. Both have shared stories about their joy working on the series.
Dunbar said, “There’s a bit of unfinished business, you know.” His character, Hastings, became famous for iconic catchphrases and unwavering dedication to rooting out bent coppers.
People want more of those tense interrogations and twist-filled storylines. Even the BBC was reportedly delighted with previous viewing figures and has not ruled out a return.
While nothing is officially confirmed, industry insiders say talks between the cast, Mercurio and producers have taken place. Scheduling has been one sticking point, but everyone seems keen to make it happen.
For now, audiences will have to wait for an official green light. But Dunbar’s recent comments have renewed hope that AC-12 will assemble again.
If Season 7 is coming, it is sure to be one of the most anticipated TV events of the year. Keep an eye on your screens—Line of Duty’s story may not be over just yet.
Fans everywhere are counting down, hoping for news soon.
