Line Of Duty actor Gregory Piper has hinted that the evil Ryan Pilkington could kill someone off by the end of series six.

The character has been a member of the OCG (Organised Crime Group) since he was a child, and has now infiltrated the detective team, pulling the strings of the bent cops including Jo Davidson.

But after killing several people already, it seems that he could have his sights on one of the lead characters.

When grilled by Alison Hammond on This Morning, Gregory laughed awkwardly before he said: ‘I mean, you know…

‘We’ve seen what he’s done before, so I think anything’s on the table.’

Gregory first appeared on the series five years ago, and was just 12 when he made his debut as hoodlum Ryan, who ran drugs for the OCG around the estate.

However, Ryan has now become a central role, having joined the police and pulled strings to land a position on the Murder Investigation Team (MIT) alongside Jo Davidson.

While it’s not known why just yet, Jo has been manipulated by the OCG, with ties to the murder of reporter Gail Vella.

We know that Ryan is capable of killing, drowning a police officer this series alone and attempting to kill

In series five, he slit the throat of undercover cop John Corbett, who had infiltrated the gang, and aided in the murder of at least two other people in increasingly violent ways.

But while Ryan is a nightmare, Gregory seems to be loving it.

‘It’s an absolute dream, it’s mad,’ he said. ‘To think what the show turned into when I was a little kid would’ve been absolutely mind-blowing.

‘It’s absolutely crazy and I’m so, so lucky to have been offered this experience.’

This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV.
