Disney fans seriously distracted by familiar voice in Line of Duty – but did you recognise her?
DISNEY fans got a shock while watching Line of Duty last night when they recognised a familiar voice.
The hit BBC crime drama returned for its highly anticipated sixth series, with actress Kelly Macdonald joining the cast as DCI Joanne Davidson.

Davidson was leading the case on an unsolved murder, and was joined by DI Kate Fleming (Vicky McClure).
The show started with a bang as a new lead in the case led to a high-speed car chase as the cops tried to unfoil a robbery.
However, some viewers were too distracted by the sound of a familiar voice to focus on the action.
Within seconds of DCI Davidson speaking, viewers – who also happen to be Disney fans – realised Kelly was the voice of Princess Merida in Brave.

The Disney Pixar film was released in 2012 and saw Kelly play the fiery haired Princess.
Taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: “When I hear Kelly Macdonald I just hear her as Merida from Brave.”
Another tweeted: “I can’t hear Kelly MacDonald without seeing Merida.”
A third added: “Yaaaass Line of Duty! Although Kelly Macdonald is confusing my head as she is the voice of Merida in Brave and I’m currently doing my food shop so only listening right now.”
