The BBC has shared a first look at Shalom Brune-Franklin as AC-12's newest recruit DC Chloe Bishop in the new series of Line of Duty.
The twisty drama returns for its sixth series on BBC One next month, with Brune-Franklin joining the cast alongside Kelly Macdonald as DCI Joanne Davidson, who is set to be the focus of AC-12's gaze this time around.
The introduction of Bishop to the team was announced in the form of a fictional letter from AC-12 boss Ted Hastings on social media.
I am writing to inform you that DC Chloe Bishop (Shalom Brune-Franklin) will be joining AC-12 to assist in their important work on a tricky upcoming case. This action will be effective immediately.
AC-12's highest priority will always be capturing bent coppers. With that in mind, we have requested and been granted an extension of an extra episode for our next series, making it our longest yet.
This extension ensures we can properly and thoroughly investigate organised criminal activity when we return soon to BBC One and BBC iPlayer for our sixth outing.
In the meantime, to see AC-12 sucking diesel, footage from DI Denton's case will be repeated on BBC One weekly from Saturday 6th February at 9pm.
Sincerely,
Superintendent Ted Hastings
