And it’s not just a travelling show in the pipeline for the trio as Adrian admitted he wants to focus on his passion for music.

He revealed: ‘I might do an album this year and do some standards and write songs. It’s hard to know whether to do standards from the Great American Songbook or folk song stuff.’ 

Elsewhere during the chat, Martin revealed that his wife Tianna has a ‘life-size’ cardboard cutout of him at their home which scares the ‘s**t’ out of him.

He disclosed: ‘I think my wife’s friends bought her it. I didn’t make her last birthday party so they bought her one of me as a stand by when I was away.

This series of Line of Duty is set to be the show’s longest yet, comprised of seven episodes instead of the usual six. 

Vicky McClure, Adrian Dunbar and Martin will reprise their roles as Detective Inspector Kate Fleming, Superintendent Ted Hastings and Detective Sergeant Steve Arnott respectively.

The series will also see Shalom Brune-Franklin join the cast as a new addition to the AC-12 team, while Kelly MacDonald will star as Detective Chief Inspector Joanne Davidson.

Davidson is assigned as senior investigating officer on an unsolved murder case whose suspicious conduct attracts the attention of the anti-corruption team.

In a short teaser trailer, Superintendent Ted Hastings voice is heard while the show’s dramatic theme music builds.

He confidently declares: ‘This is Superintendent Hastings, you’ll be treated fairly with the full protection of the law.’ 

While speaking, he and DS Steve Arnott are seen looking tense during a night scene before DI Kate Fleming’s face is also dramatically shown to the camera.

However in true AC-12 style, it seems as if something more than meets the eye might be happening.

Kate appears to be wearing a multi-coloured striped jumper – and standing next to a woman who has her arms up in surrender.

Only adding the the intensity and suggestion she could be dirty, the final image before Line Of Duty’s logo is shown, reveals a woman reaching for her gun. 

Creator Jed Mercurio has been tight-lipped on details surrounding the upcoming sixth series, but has hinted that fans will learn more about H’s identity.

Fans were floored to learn in series five that after years of waiting to discover the identity of the villainous H, it was actually an organisation. 

Steve Arnott discovered the vital clue when a clip of DI Matthew ‘Dot’ Cottan’s dying declaration was played during AC-12 boss Ted Hasting’s interrogation with Patricia Carmichael (Anna Maxwell-Martin). 

Mercurio left fans speculating he had revealed the identity of bent copper H when he dropped another major clue about series six in February 2020.

He whipped up a social media storm with viewers of the smash-hit BBC show when he shared a photo of Australian chocolate biscuits TimTams with the caption #LineofDuty Series 6 Plot Clue No. 1.’

Manufactured by Arnott’s – the same surname as AC-12 guru DS Steve Arnott – the cryptic snap sent viewers into a frenzy, with theories ranging from a move to Australia to Steve breaking up with his girlfriend.

After filming for series six kicked off in February 2020, Jed shared a more on-the-nose snap from filming of a passed-out Ted Hastings lies slumped on a chair between stars Martin and Vicky. 

Earlier this year, Jed also confirmed he plans to write a seventh series of Line Of Duty, after its fifth instalment became the most-watched yet.

Speaking on the Out To Lunch podcast, he said: ‘What I do know is that season six proves there is much more ground for us still to cover and then in terms of other projects. I really want to carry on with Line of Duty as I think it still got some ground to cover. 

‘I am in a fortunate position as a writer. To dream of getting to the point where people watch your work in such larger numbers and you get a little bit of name recognition as well.’

Line of Duty will return on Sunday 21 March at 9pm on BBC One. 

LINE OF DUTY: WHO IS THE FOURTH ‘H’?

Line Of Duty creator Jed Mercurio excited fans when he shared the first clue about the plot of season six to Twitter.

Uploading a snap of a packet of the Australian chocolate biscuits TimTams with the caption ‘#LineofDuty Series 6 Plot Clue No. 1’, fans began to ferociously speculate as to what it might mean.

But one plot point hanging over the next season of the show is about the identity of the ominous ‘H’.

While the mystery was somewhat answered in the season five finale, it was also revealed that there are FOUR people pertaining to be ‘H’, with the final one still unknown.

So who could it be?

Patricia Carmichael (Anna Maxwell Martin)

She was one of season five’s stand-out characters, swooping in towards the end of the series to interrogate Ted Hastings – highly suspected to be ‘H’ at the time.

And while she simply seemed to be excellent at her job – and hellbent on uncovering the corruption within the department – could it be that Patricia Carmichael was SO keen to pin the blame on Ted to take the focus away from herself.

Could SHE be the fourth ‘H’?

Her position of power and respect, along with her unnaturally steely and cut-throat demeanor, could well point to this.

Ted Hastings (Adrian Dunbar)

Ted Hastings was pinpointed by viewers of the show, as well as the characters on the show, to be a candidate for ‘H’.

But it seemed he was exonerated by the end of season five, allowed to walk free.

But could be potentially be triple-crossing us all? Could he in fact STILL be the potential fourth ‘H’.

The biggest issue with this theory is that Gill Biggeloe – one of the three revealed to be ‘H’ – was so against him. Surely she wouldn’t be working to deter him if they were in league?

UNLESS, she doesn’t KNOW he is the fourth ‘H’?

DCC Andrea Wise (Elizabeth Rider)

Detective Chief Constable Andrea Wise was new to the show in season five and is another high-powered contender for ‘H’.

She has been constantly interfering when it has come to supporting AC-12’s investigations, removing them from the investigation into Operation Pear Tree. She also instigated the Ted Hastings investigation.

She is also keen to cover up police corruption, despite announcing at the end of season five: ‘This constabulary will work tirelessly to root out rotten apples in its ranks.’

PCC Rohan Sindwhani (Ace Bhatti)

Police and Crime Commissioner Rohan Sindwhani demanded to be ‘in on’ a meeting between Andrea Wise and Ted Hastings. This might be a small clue but any clue could be valid at this point.

Any shady behavior suggests ‘H’ is at play, and so Rohan could indeed be culpable.
