Adrian is set to appear on The Graham Norton show tonight alongside co-star Vicky McClure, who portrays DCI Kate Fleming.

The 62-year-old spoke about the highly-anticipated new series of the gripping cop drama, and shed some light on the new plot without giving too much away.

Dunbar shared: “18 months have passed so the landscape has completely changed. We are starting from a place that the audience will probably find a bit shocking at first.

“Things and people have been moved around so the first episode is going to be one of those ‘head- wrecks’ for the audience.”

It has been almost nine years since the famed trio of AC-12 graced our screens for the first time.

The show continued to grow with each passing season and a whopping 13 million people tuned in to watch series five which aired in 2019.

Commenting on the number of fans the show has garnered, Adrian shared: “It was a slow burn. The first series was great, but we didn’t know we would get a second one.

“Then we got a second one and halfway through that suddenly the numbers built and since then it’s just taken off – it’s big and the anticipation is massive. It’s intense.”

Vicky, who was scheduled to get married to Welsh director Jonny Owen but the coronavirus pandemic threw a spanner in the works.

McClure, who has been engaged since 2017, revealed: “We didn’t get married, but we haven’t even booked it.

“I’d marry him tomorrow, but we’ve never got around to cementing the plan. We will probably end up at Gretna Green!”

Series 6 of Line of Duty begins March 21 on BBC One at 9pm.
