The return of Jed Mercurio’s police corruption thriller is edging ever closer
Finally, we have some more news on Line of Duty series five – Jed Mercurio’s acclaimed police corruption thriller is set to begin filming in “one month”.
The writer posted the news on Twitter, with a photo of the three leads Martin Compston, Vicky McClure and Adrian Dunbar on set and a caption reading: “One month to go till we start shooting... Counting down till the gang gets back together.”
