Meet the Stars of Line of Duty: Complete Cast List for Seasons 1-6!

While we’re all eagerly anticipating what lies ahead for Line of Duty, it’s comforting to know that every season of this popular BBC series is now ready for streaming on Netflix.

You can stream Seasons 1-6 at your leisure, making it perfect for both longtime fans of the series and newcomers who haven’t yet experienced the thrilling ride of AC-12. There’s an abundance of content to keep everyone entertained.

Currently, there’s a lot of chatter surrounding the potential future of the series, as fans express their hope that another episode might be released.

Initially, it was announced that filming for season 7 would commence in January 2026. However, lead actor Martin Compston later clarified that due to the cast’s conflicting schedules, a possible new season might still be some time away.

Without a doubt, over the course of its six seasons, it’s clear that the show accumulated an impressive array of British acting talent. Stars like Stephen Graham, Thandiwe Newton, Kelly Macdonald, and Keeley Hawes (just to mention a few) have graced the series at various points. This has resulted in many recognizable faces.

Absolutely, they will be part of the main ensemble that includes Martin Compston, Vicky McClure, and Adrian Dunbar, who all appear consistently across the show’s episodes.

As a die-hard fan of Line of Duty, I’m often left scratching my head trying to keep track of who’s who in this gripping series. Lucky for us, here’s a guide to the main characters and actors that have graced our screens throughout the drama’s seasons. Check out the cast list below!

Line of Duty cast

Martin Compston plays DI Steve Arnott

What is DI Steve Arnott about? Originally an anti-terrorism officer, he moved to anti-corruption at the onset of season one following his refusal to conceal a disastrously flawed mission. He’s proven indispensable to AC-12 since then, even though he faced investigation in season three. Now, he’s an essential member of Ted Hastings’ squad. Despite being hurt in the line of duty, his injury has become increasingly troublesome for him as we enter season six. For quite some time, he held the rank of Detective Sergeant, but he’s currently awaiting finalization of paperwork before being officially promoted to Detective Inspector.

Has Martin Compston appeared in any other productions besides what you mentioned? Yes, he has been part of several dramas such as The Nest (2020), Traces, The Rig, Vigil, Mayflies, Fear on Prime Video, and will soon be seen in the second season of ITV’s Red Eye and The Revenge Club on Paramount Plus.

Vicky McClure plays DI Kate Fleming

Who is DI (Detective Inspector) Kate Fleming? Since the first season, Kate has been a part of the AC-12 team, focusing on undercover operations. Over time, she’s climbed the ranks from Detective Sergeant to her current position as Detective Inspector. She is admired for her proficiency and dedication to her work, showcasing keen investigative skills. However, her commitment to her job has had an impact on her personal life; her marriage ended, and she no longer has primary custody of their son.

Has Vicky McClure been in any other productions aside from “This Is England”?

Yes, she has! Alongside Shane Meadows on the This Is England series, she’s acted in the original movie and the following Channel 4 TV shows. She also portrayed Karen White on ITV’s Broadchurch, made an appearance on Prime Video’s Alex Rider, and heads the cast of ITV’s Trigger Point. Additionally, she has starred in Insomnia, Without Sin, The Secret Agent, and The Replacement.

Adrian Dunbar plays Superintendent Ted Hastings

What we’re trying to find out is the identity of Ted Hastings. He holds the position as the chief investigator at AC-12. In season five, he found himself under investigation and was accused of some serious offenses; however, he was eventually cleared of them, though not without receiving a formal written warning for misconduct. At that point, his marriage had fallen apart, and he was residing in a dilapidated hotel. The story continues 18 months later in season six, but Hastings is still grappling with the fallout from those events.

Besides his role in Ridley, Adrian Dunbar has previously appeared in shows such as The Hollow Crown, Blood, Ashes to Ashes, and The Jump. Additionally, he has hosted informative series like Adrian Dunbar’s Coastal Ireland and Adrian Dunbar: My Ireland.

Has there been any other production that Shalmon Brune-Franklin has been a part of?

Has Elizabeth Rider appeared in any other roles besides DCI Lynette Driver in Doctors, Lady Justice Spencer in Informer, Gladys Wilson in Mrs Wilson, or roles like those in Lewis, Doctor Who, Waking the Dead, or Vera?

Andi Osho plays Gail Vella

Gail Vella is a well-known journalist who met with a tragic end. A year after her death, her murderer remains unidentified or apprehended, but at the beginning of season 6, a possible culprit has surfaced and DCI Joanne Davidson seems resolute on bringing them to account.

Has Andi Osho taken on any other acting roles besides her performances as Carrie in Michaela Coel’s I May Destroy You on BBC One, Precious Abellard in BBC’s Death in Paradise, Rochelle Akindele in Channel 4’s Kiri, and Jenny in Sky’s dystopian drama Curfew?

Jimmy Lakewell is an attorney who initially worked for the criminal law firm Lakewell, Dean & Stevenson.

Yes, he has been featured in Breeders (as Darren), Semi-Detached (as Ted), Stella (as Michael Jackson), Marcella (as Stephen Holmes), and Party Animals (as James Northcote). Notably, he has worked with Jed Mercurio before; they previously collaborated on Bodies, Jed’s 2004-2006 medical drama series, where Patrick portrayed Dr Roger Hurley.

George Costigan plays Patrick Fairbank

What is Patrick Fairbank known as? – Former Chief Superintendent Patrick Fairbank faced charges for his involvement in the Sands View Boys’ Home scandal during the third season. In the sixth season, Chloe and Steve sought him out in prison to gather information regarding the Lawrence Christopher case and Marcus Thurwell, but he appears to be experiencing memory loss issues.

What other productions has George Costigan been part of, aside from Rita, Sue and Bob Too? He has also acted in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Kavanagh QC, Inspector Morse, New Tricks, and made a guest appearance in the 2007 Doctor Who Christmas special.

James Nesbitt plays Marcus Thurwell

Who is Marcus Thurwell? He is a retired Detective Chief Inspector who used to work for the police force and was last seen in Spain in 2015. He served as Senior Investigating Officer (SIO) on two high-profile cases: the death of Oliver Stephens-Lloyd in 1998, and the Lawrence Christopher case in 2003. During the events of season three, he was under investigation by AC-12 for allegedly covering up child abuse at Sands View Boys’ Home; however, since he was abroad at the time, and Fairbank was convicted and jailed instead, no further action was taken against Thurwell.

What other television shows or movies has James Nesbitt been part of, apart from his collaboration with Jed Mercurio on Bloodlands? Some of his previous roles include Adam Williams in Cold Feet, DI Harry Clayton in Lucky Man, Tony Hughes in The Missing, Gabriel Monroe in Monroe, and Jekyll.

After that, she received a promotion and by the start of Season 6, she can be found working on The Hill as part of the team investigating the Gail Vella murder case (MIT). So, who is PS Farida Jatri? She’s a detective who has progressed in her career and is now involved in significant cases.

Has Anneika Rose taken on any other roles besides her part in the David Tennant drama “Deadwater Fell”, “The Feed”, “The Cry” as Jean-Louise Talbot, and “Ackley Bridge” as Lila Shariff?

Nigel Boyle plays Ian Buckells

I’ve encountered Detective Superintendent Ian Buckells across seasons one, four, and now six. In the first season, I remember him as a DI who assisted with the Jackie Laverty case. Then, as a DCI, he stepped in for Roz Huntley’s investigation and found himself working alongside Kate, although he was aware she was an undercover officer. Somehow, he’s managed to rise through the ranks, even though his abilities (or so it seems) appear rather ordinary.

Have you noticed Nigel Boyle in any other productions besides Small Axe, The End of the Fing World, Doctors, Silent Witness, Peaky Blinders, Home Fires, Humans, and Coronation Street?

Ace Bhatti plays PCC Rohan Sindwhani

Who is Rohan Sindwhani? In the fifth season, he took over as Police and Crime Commissioner for Central Police. As we move into season six, he remains in that position, and it appears his primary goal is to thwart any efforts to expose corruption within the police force, thus preventing unwelcome media attention.

Apart from his role as Yusef Khan in EastEnders until 2011, Ace Bhatti has also appeared on screen as Calvin Sarwar in Shetland, DCI Jahan Kapoor in Black Work, Nazir Afzal in the acclaimed mini-series Three Girls, and Mayor Hassan in comedy drama No Offence.

Perry Fitzpatrick plays DS Chris Lomax

Who is DCI Chris Lomax, you ask? He is the junior detective constable on Joanne Davidson’s team, focusing on murder investigations at Hillside Lane (colloquially known as “the Hill”). Currently, he is involved in the Gail Vella case.

Has Perry Fitzpatrick appeared in any other productions besides Line of Duty with Vicky McClure? Absolutely! He has been part of several TV series alongside her, such as This is England (where he played Flip) and I Am (portraying Adam opposite her). In addition, Perry Fitzpatrick’s television credits include We Hut Together, Man Like Mobeen, Suspects, and Cursed. As for movies, you might recognize him from 2019’s Downton Abbey, where he played Chris Webster.

Gregory Piper plays Ryan Pilkington

As a cinephile reflecting on the captivating series, allow me to introduce Ryan Pilkington, a character whose transformation has been nothing short of intriguing. In the early seasons, he was a troubled youth, peddling burner phones for a criminal outfit led by Tommy Hunter, all while cruising around on his BMX. Fast forward to season five, and he had matured into a full-fledged member of the Organized Crime Group (OCG). Now, in this current season six, Ryan Pilkington has taken on a new role – that of Police Constable Ryan Pilkington, working alongside DCI Jo Davidson and DI Kate Fleming, delving deep into the Gail Vella case.

Has Gregory Piper taken part in any other productions apart from Frankie (2013 TV series) and Fixed (2021 film), where he played the role of Jimmy Clemance?

Who is Patricia Carmichael? She’s a senior detective with an anti-corruption background, transferred from another unit (AC-3). Last we saw her in the fifth season, she interrogated Superintendent Ted Hastings, after allegations of him being involved with a criminal organization called H. emerged.

In April, it was revealed that Carmichael would reappear in the last three episodes of season six, recurring as a character. This information comes after the shocking news that AC-12 is planning to shut down, with their fictional police force merging all anti-corruption units into one. Given Hastings’ retirement, there’s speculation that Carmichael might take over the top position.

Has Anna Maxwell Martin appeared in any other productions? Yes, she has starred in Motherland, The Frankenstein Chronicles as Mary Shelley, The Bletchley Circle, Death Comes to Pemberley as Elizabeth Darcy, and portrayed Beelzebub in Neil Gaiman’s Amazon series Good Omens.

Tommy Jessop plays Terry Boyle

In my opinion, meeting Terry Boyle, portrayed this time around by Elliott Rosen, is like diving into a story of resilience and vulnerability. This man with Down’s Syndrome lives life on his own terms yet finds himself ensnared in the web spun by the ominous balaclava gang. Interestingly enough, Terry was first introduced to us last season, offering a fresh perspective as we navigate through the complexities of this tale.

Has Tommy Jessop been featured in any other productions aside from Coming Down the Mountain, Off their Rockers, Casualty, and Doctors?

Christina Chong plays DI Nicola “Jolly” Rogerson

Who is Detective Inspector Rogerson? She was initially introduced in season two as a member of the Major Violent Crime unit. At that time, she collaborated with DCS Lester Hargreaves as a Detective Sergeant. Subsequently, she formed a romantic relationship with DS Steve Arnott (Martin Compston), although it seems their relationship didn’t last. Now, DI Rogerson has been promoted, and it appears that Arnott is keen to join her team.

Besides her role as Nell McBride in Bulletproof, Christina Chong has also acted in other productions such as Heirs of the Night (as Calvina), Ill Behaviour, Halo: Nightfall, Dominion, and 24: Live Another Day.

In addition to Justice League where she played a cop, you might recognize Rosa Escoda from the TV series Wanderlust, or from her role as Sarah Jane Fleet on Holby City.

Maria Connolly plays Alison Merchant

The character you’re referring to, Merchant, is a ruthless guard at the prison who has viciously attacked two individuals: DI Lindsay Denton (in season two) and PS Farida Jatri (in season six). While her exact motivations remain unexplained, it appears she may be an associate of the Organized Crime Group (OCG), possibly working undercover within the prison system to eliminate anyone who could potentially pose a threat to them.

Has Maria Connolly been featured in any other productions apart from Line of Duty? Yes, she also starred in the 2015 indie sci-fi movie “Robot Overlords,” which had notable actors like Ben Kingsley and Gillian Anderson.

Owen Teale plays Chief Inspector Philip Osborne

Who is Osborne? He currently serves as the Chief Constable of Central Police. In our initial encounter during season one, he was heading the Counter Terrorism Unit that tragically shot Karim Ali (at an incorrect location). DS Steve Arnott opted not to participate in the subsequent cover-up, leading to his removal from the team and transfer to AC-12. No one faced any consequences for their role in the shooting despite Steve’s testimony. By season six, he resurfaced in archival footage as AC-12 delved into the Gail Vella case.

Has Owen Teale appeared in any other shows or movies? Yes, after his role as Alliser Thorne in Game of Thrones, he’s been seen in A Discovery of Witches, Deep State, Traitors, and Pulse. Additionally, he’s known for his work in Stella, River, and Ballykissangel.

Kwaku Fortune plays the CHIS handler

As a cinephile putting it in my own words: I’m the guy who operates as a CHIS, or covert human intelligence source. I’ve been passing along intel to DCI Joanne Davidson’s team from my confidential informant, who tipped me off about this fellow named Ross Turner bragging about his role in the murder of Gail Vella.

However, it was later unveiled that he was, in fact, an undercover police officer.
