Line Of Duty series 7 kicks off in 2027 – and the DVD and Blu-ray listing has given a few more clues. More here.
Comfortably one of the most anticipated BBC drama returns over the coming months is the return of Line Of Duty, for the first time in over five years.
Series seven has already been shot, with Jed Mercurio overseeing as usual. Martin Comptson, Vicky McClure and Adrian Dunbar lead the returning cast. Robert Carlyle, meanwhile, is amongst the new additions.
The BBC has been mum on exactly when to expect the show’s return, short of teasing it’ll be 2027. We now know for definite that it’s coming in the first half of the year though, with the news that the DVD and Blu-ray have appeared for pre-order.
It’s a two-disc, six-hour set, confirming that we’ll be getting a six-episode run of the new show this time around. The current thinking is that the BBC will start screening the show, week by week, from the end of January, but that’s not been confirmed.
The DVD release date is official, though. It’s arriving on 28th June 2027, and you can find the listing – and preorder yourself a copy – right here.
We get a full synopsis for the new show as part of the listing too, and it reads as follows…
AC-12 has been disbanded and rebranded the Inspectorate of Police Standards. Anticorruption work has never been more difficult and in this challenging climate the team are assigned their most sensitive case so far.
DI Dominic Gough, a charismatic officer winning plaudits for a string of takedowns of organised crime, is accused of abusing his position of trust to act as a sexual predator. But is Gough’s case a deliberate distraction from a bigger threat still operating in the shadows?
Robert Carlyle (Trainspotting) is the series’ guest lead, DC Shaun Massie, Specialist Rifle Officer, and veteran marksman. A gruff loner, Massie keeps himself to himself, but when his boss is in AC-12’s sights, Massie’s otherwise detached demeanour changes drastically.
Tom Weston-Jones (Warrior, Sanditon) DI Dominic Gough. A charismatic officer who has won plaudits for a string of takedowns of organised crime, he is accused of sexual harassment.
Also joining the cast are Laura Aikman (This City Is Ours), Levi Brown (This Town) and Amy Leigh Hickman (Ackley Bridge). Mark Bonnar (former DCS Mike Dryden), Owen Teale (CC Philip Osborne), Perry Fitzpatrick (DS Chris Lomax) and Christina Chong (DI Nicky Rogerson) resume their roles.
Diesel sucking this re-commences in 2027, then. More news on the transmission date as we hear it. Don’t be surprised if we get a trailer this side of Christmas…
