Line of Duty 2021 is almost upon us and, if Adrian Dunbar has his way, some pretty big guest stars could be about to grace our screens.
Series six of the BBC drama is set to return later this month.
And, ahead of its release, the Ted Hastings actor has proved to be quite the tease.
Fans are hugely excited for the new series, with the latest full-length trailer creating serious intrigue earlier this week.

The beloved actor went to add: “I would love to get Dame Judi Dench in as a character. That would be a laugh, or Sir Ian McKellen.
“There are so many actors like that we could get in. The crossovers would be amazing, wouldn’t they?” he teased.

What happens in Line of Duty series 6?
Last week, fans were treated to an exciting preview of the upcoming season.
In the trailer, Superintendent Hastings, says: “Gail Vella’s murder is this force’s highest-profile investigation.”
It also featured DCI Joanne Davidson (Kelly Macdonald) speaking with DI Kate Fleming (Vicky McClure).
She says: “Her life cut short… and whoever did it has got away with it.”
