Adrian Dunbar shares Line of Duty series 7 update
The star of the BBC drama told This Morning he called his agent to find out "more news". What did you miss? News just in from Adrian Dunbar - the Line of Duty star has revealed he got an update on series seven as recently as this morning (7 August), but it contradicts his recent comments about the show's future. Appearing on This Morning on Thursday, 7 August, Dunbar was in the studio to talk about ITV detective show Ridley. But it wasn't long before hosts Joel Dommett and Emma Willis gave in to temptation and asked him about BBC hit Line of Duty. Since the series six finale in 2021, fans have been obsessing over whether there will be another instalment, with varying responses from key cast members Dunbar, Vicky McClure and Martin Compston. But despite his recent confirmation that series seven was on the way, Dunbar told Dommett and Willis he had called his agent about the show just hours earlier and had been told "there isn't any more real definite news". What, how and why? Dunbar might have been a guest on ITV's This Morning to talk about the broadcaster's own cop show starring him, Ridley, but even the hosts couldn't resist steering the conversation towards his BBC police procedural hit Line of Duty. He plays Ted Hastings alongside McClure as Kate Fleming and Compston as Steve Arnott in the hugely successful drama from Jed Mercurio about police corruption investigators AC-12 and fans are desperate for news of whether there will ever be a seventh series. Willis asked him of his co-stars over the years: "Do you have favourites?" and Dunbar delighted Line of Duty fans everywhere by replying: "Vicky and Martin, obviously." It nicely teed up a question about the show's future and Dunbar said: "When it happens, yes, absolutely we'll be excited to go back." But he continued: "We actually don't know if it's going to happen. I actually called my agent this morning to see was there any more news, but there isn't any more real definite news about it sadly, so we're just going to have to wait. "Everybody wants to know that it's happening, and so do we."

First series was great, second series just took off with Keeley (Hawes) and Craig Parkinson and it just started to build from there. "Because of the twists and turns, I think nobody wanted to come into work on Monday and not know what had happened in Line of Duty over the weekend. You had to know, so that just built and then it became a thing. We didn't really realise that it would get to these sort of heights, but it's great that it has." What has Adrian Dunbar said about Line of Duty 7 before? The actor's most recent comments will be a disappointment to fans after implying in an interview just a week earlier that the show's return was imminent. Dunbar had told The Times: "We're really excited about getting our hands on a Line of Duty script, to see what happens to us. Jed is writing. We've talked to the BBC. It is down to the BBC to make an announcement, but we're keeping our fingers crossed that next year we'll be working on a new series. No doubt Jed will think of some interesting twists and turns." He had also acknowledged viewers' issues with the big series six reveal that bungling cop Ian Buckells was crime lord H, a question that had plagued the drama since series one and which many thought was an anticlimactic result. Dunbar said: "When you find out it is this idiot, Buckells, it is so frustrating. There is a scene where the three of us are told who it is, and we look at each other and go, 'What?' We asked Jed to write that scene because we realised how our audience would feel. "But Jed's point was that police corruption can hang on one cop deciding to ignore one piece of information that comes across his desk." This Morning airs on ITV1 at 10am on weekdays.

Dick's Creates In-house Studio to Create Sports Films
Dick's Sporting Goods is getting into the sports content business. The Pittsburgh-based retailer has launched Cookie Jar & A Dream Studios, an in-house content and production studio 'dedicated to telling powerful, human-centered stories through the lens of sport,' the company said Thursday. More from WWD Johnnie-O to Create Fan Gear for NFL Through New Licensing Deal Senator Warren to FTC: Block Dick's Sporting Goods' $2.4 Billion Foot Locker Acquisition EXCLUSIVE: Glamnetic and Fanatics Create Nail Sets Inspired by NFL, NCAA and MLB Teams The goal for the studio is to offer storytelling that will highlight the determination, triumphs and heartbreaks of sports. Although the studio is new, the retailer has been dabbling in sports storytelling for more than a decade. In 2014, it debuted its first documentary feature, 'We Could Be King,' which won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Sports Documentary. This past spring, the company picked up a second Emmy for 'The Turnaround,' a documentary that tells the story of Philadelphia Phillies' superfan Jon McCann. Over the past 10 years Dick's has produced five feature-length films and 10 short-form or episodic documentaries, with additional projects in the hopper. 'Dick's believes that sports have the power to change lives,' said Mark Rooks, vice president of creative, entertainment and sponsorships at Dick's. 'And we've seen through our work how true that is for so many who have excelled, triumphed against the odds, and been defeated in sport. There are so many incredible and inspiring human stories that deserve to be told, and we could not be more excited to showcase how individuals, teams and communities are shaping sport, bringing people together and unifying and building communities for thousands.' The official announcement of Cookie Jar & A Dream Studios coincides with the premiere of 'Big Dreams: The Little League World Series 2024' documentary. Produced in partnership with Imagine Entertainment and MLB Studios, the film will premiere on Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. ET on ESPN. ''Big Dreams ' is a great example of the kind of projects Cookie Jar & A Dream Studios aims to produce,' said Rebecca Covington, senior director of creative production at Dick's. 'Being able to share big sports moments with fans is something that drives our team, and we look at the upcoming years with great excitement as we know there will be so many unforgettable stories deserving of the spotlight.' The name of the studio derives from the history of Dick's, which was founded in 1948 by 18-year-old Dick Stack, who borrowed $300 from his grandmother's cookie jar to open a small bait-and-tackle shop in Binghamton, N.Y. Today, the company is the largest sports retailer in the U.S. with more than 850 stores under the Dick's Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, Public Lands and Going Going Gone nameplates.
