Christina Chong, well-known for her role in Line of Duty, has hinted at the potential for a seventh season of the popular crime drama.
The BBC’s acclaimed series, focusing on AC-12’s investigations into corruption, ended in 2021 with a finale that attracted 15 million viewers. Despite this success, some fans were disappointed with how the series wrapped up. However, there are now growing speculations that the show’s cast and crew are getting ready for another season.
Reports from The Daily Mail suggest that Chong, who played DI Nicky Rogerson in the second and sixth seasons, discussed the potential comeback at the Hollywood Saturn Awards. When questioned about a return to the show, she mentioned:
“I have been asked about a season, is it seven? Yeah. Potentially Nicola Rogerson will be back for season seven.”
Meanwhile, Martin Compston, who played Steve Arnott, recently hinted at a possible return, saying he’d “like to pull his waistcoat out again.”
Adrian Dunbar, who portrayed Superintendent Ted Hastings from the show’s inception, also appeared to tease a new season during an interview on Virgin Radio. When asked about his character’s signature Irish expressions, he shared:
“The one I didn’t get in, which is kind of a really good Irish one about not stopping things happening is, ‘Don’t stall the digger.’
“That’s a good one, isn’t it? Like, you know, ‘You’ve got to keep going.’ That’s going in the next season.”
Created by Jed Mercurio, Line of Duty became renowned for its gripping twists and willingness to kill off major guest stars. The series originally aired on the BBC in the UK and is currently available for streaming on Peacock in the US.
