The trio played the roles of Steve Arnott, Kate Fleming and Ted Hastings in the much-loved BBC police drama which last aired in 2021 after almost a decade on screens – and fans are desperately anticipating a new season.

Vicky, who was singing and dancing passionately to the music, said to the camera: ‘Hello everyone, we just needed a lift to a restaurant.’
“I mean, I’m trying to keep it together,” Adrian, 66, added as the BBC stars asked viewers if they had any requests.

Fans loved the impromptu cast reunion and rushed to the comments of the post to demand a new season, joking, “Jesus, Mary Joseph and the little donkey, they’re all amazing!”
‘Ahhh the best threesome! I hope to see you all on our screens again one day as AC-12!’
‘We need another series guys…….’
‘The best trio of police series in the world!!! Jesus, Mary, Joseph and the donkey.’

‘Things we like to see.’
‘New series pleaseseeeeee.’
‘Imagine walking down the street and seeing AC12 racing in a tuk tuk.’
“I love it – I really wish you would release a season 7.”
“Great, please let there be another duty.”
In May this year, Adrian admitted he wants a Line Of Duty comeback before he gets older.
The actor revealed that he and all his cast mates want to return for a seventh series.
He told it The times: ‘We all want it to come back. It’s fitting that today should be their day [castmates Vicky McClure and Martin Compton’s shared] birthdays because I really don’t want them to get older.

Vicky awkwardly dodged the question of whether another series of Line Of Duty would be made when she appeared on This Morning earlier this year
‘I don’t want to get older either, because we don’t want to come back if we’re in a wheelchair. Ted Hastings with a Zimmer frame.”
A few days earlier, Vicky awkwardly dodged questions about a new series of Line Of Duty being made while appearing on This Morning.
When she appeared on the daytime TV show, presenters Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley were keen to know if the show would ever return.
Ben said: “There will always be rumors and expectations. Do you all agree that you would be ready for Jed to get together?”
But Vicky then replied: ‘There will always be rumours. I mean, look. We’ve all said we love the show and would obviously like to go again, but there’s nothing to talk about, so it’s disappointing because there’s no news!’
Cat then joked: ‘Is no news good news? Because it’s definitely not a no…’.
Vicky then started to smile and grabbed a pillow to cover herself as she added, “I’m just going to put this over my face…” as Ben and Cat burst out laughing.
Adrian then teased the show’s return during an appearance on Good Morning Britain in July.

When asked about the possibility of a new series, he replied: ‘Well, I think so, Vicky thinks so, Martin thinks so’
Adrian joined presenters Susanna Reid and Ed Balls on the ITV show and admitted he would be free to film after his show ended in September.
When asked about the possibility of a new series, he replied: ‘Well, I think so, Vicky thinks so, Martin thinks so.
‘That’s what everyone thinks! It will depend on the BBC and Jed Mercurio, I think, when and if we do it.’
He added: “Hopefully someone will make a decision at some point.”
Ed asked how long it would take for a new series to be made, with Adrian explaining: “First of all, Jed will have to write what he’s going to write. That doesn’t happen overnight.
‘Then the BBC will have to make a decision about when we’re going to shoot the film, where we’re going to shoot the film.
‘Hopefully we’ll come back to Belfast, that’s where we filmed everything. It will easily take a year.’
End of next year? Maybe,” he added.
After the sixth series of Line Of Duty fans across the country were left ‘fuming’ as the nail-biting series finale came to an end and the mysterious antagonist ‘H’ was finally unmasked.
Die-hard fans took to social media in droves to share their frustrations as officers from the police’s anti-corruption unit AC-12 discovered the identity of the elusive ‘fourth man’, who had conspired with the organized crime group (OCG). none other than DSU Ian Buckells.
It saw the words ‘fuming’, ‘disappointing’ and ‘disappointing’ all trend on social media in the wake of the show.
And the disbelief that it could be him was compounded by the way he was only caught for his repeated misspelling of the word “absolutely” – hardly the blunder of a hardened criminal mastermind.
