Few shows whip their fans into a frenzy like Line Of Duty does. The anticipation surrounding series six of the BBC police drama is immense – heightened, perhaps, because of a delayed air date (filming had to be halted thanks to the Covid-19 pandemic).
You see, Ted Hastings’ famous catchphrases – “Mother of God!” – Jed Mercurio’s clever, twist-heavy writing, and the impressively high calibre of guest stars are just a few elements that make Line Of Duty stand out in the world of TV dramas.
Fans have been eagerly awaiting the sixth instalment of Jed Mercurio’s nail-biting BBC drama Line of Duty - and they won t have long to wait now. The new series of Jed Mercurio’s hit drama was originally set to air last year, but production delays caused by the coronavirus pandemic led to a later release date. The new series is set a year and a half on from the events of series five and will feature a brand new case for AC-12, focused on an enigmatic detective chief inspector. But who is starring, what have they said about the new season, and how can you watch Line of Duty?
