Vicky McClure is 'sure' Line of Duty will return at some point

The 39-year-old star admits she, Martin Compston and Adrian Dunbar are "all game" for another series, but she hinted Martin's busy schedule could make it tricky.

Speaking on 'Good Morning Britain', she said: "I speak to the lads all the time, we'd all love to, we're all game - Martin's in nine shows!

"It's busy, I'm sure we'll get there."

Last month, Adrian - who portrays Superintendent Ted Hastings in the hit police drama - admitted the 'Line of Duty' cast are "keeping their fingers crossed" that there will be a seventh series.

Asked if they might "do another one", he replied: "Yes, there is every possibility. We're all keeping our fingers crossed that we'll hear something at some point.

"We all want to get back together again. We'd love to go back to Belfast again."

Adrian is hoping he and his co-stars can "have a bit of fun" shooting another series, after season six was filmed amid the coronavirus pandemic.

He added: "The last time we did it it was in lockdown, so we were all in bubbles. We couldn't get out ... everything was shut. So we'd like to get back to Belfast for a bit of fun."

In August, Adrian admitted a new 'Line of Duty' series might focus on "something from past episodes", and teased that the 2021 finale - which drew in almost 17 million viewers - may "not be the last" audiences see of the BBC show.

He said: "My thinking is that, no, it's not the last you might see of us. I know that there are people who are talking and some plans, but I don't know exactly what would happen. I don't know what shape it might take. There was talk of a film, there was talk about maybe two 90 minutes, there was talk about three one hours, I don't know."
