BBC's Popular Police Drama 'Line of Duty' Announces Seventh Season Renewal

Police drama Line of Duty is set to return for a seventh season on BBC, with key cast members Adrian Dunbar, Vicky McClure, and Martin Compston confirmed to reprise their roles. The new six-part series, written by creator Jed Mercurio, will commence filming in Belfast next spring. The announcement comes after the show’s sixth series concluded in 2021 with a record-breaking 17 million viewers. The seventh season will feature the reformed AC-12 team now operating as the Inspectorate of Police Standards, tackling a new case involving a high-profile officer accused of misconduct. Creator Jed Mercurio expressed his gratitude to fans, stating, ‘We’re privileged to have had so many of you follow the ups and downs of AC-12 over six previous seasons.’
