Absolutely buzzing with this development!
Adrian Dunbar believes the next series of Line of Duty could be in the works very soon.
The Fermanagh actor appeared on Good Morning Britain recently and teased that the popular police drama could be returning sooner than we think.

When host Susanna Reid said the show should make a return, Dunbar agreed.
“Well I think so, Vicky (McClure) thinks so, Martin (Compston) thinks so. Everybody thinks so! It'll be down to the BBC and Jed Mercurio I think, when and whether we do it."
Host Ed Balls questioned the actor on how long it could be before another series is commissioned.
“First of all, Jed will have to write whatever he's going to write. That doesn't happen overnight. Then the BBC will have to make a decision on when we're going to shoot it, where we're going to shoot it."
“Hopefully we'll get back to Belfast, that's where we shot everything. It'll easily be a year,” the 65-year-old actor added.
Ed followed up on this by straight out asking Dunbar if fans of the show could expect a new series in 2025.
“The end of next year? Maybe,” was Dunbar's response.
Although it was strongly considered that Series 6 was going to be the last series of the crime drama, fans have been calling for the show to make a return.
We’re not ready to say goodbye to Ted Hastings and co just yet!
