Let’s be honest for a second. Sometimes, good things end. And the ending of season six? It was messy, but it was final. Maybe we should accept that.
But then I remember the sound of “We are Line of Duty” blasting over the credits. And I think, nah, they’ll be back. They just need the right story.
Mercurio is a genius. He doesn’t churn out rubbish. If he comes back, it has to be better than the original. That’s a tall order.

What’s the Timeline?
Real talk? Don’t expect anything before 2026. At the very earliest. Maybe even 2027. TV takes forever now, especially for prestige stuff.
You know how long it takes to make a show like this? Months of writing, then filming, then editing. Then we obsess over it for years. It’s a lifestyle, really.
So, get cozy. Rewatch the old seasons. Memorize every line Hastings says. Because for now? We’re on indefinite leave from AC-12.
