Ridley season 2: Release date speculation and latest news
Will Adrian Dunbar's detective be back on ITV?
It's good news, Ridley Fans.
The detective drama, which airs on ITV1 and ITVX in the UK, and PBS Masterpiece in the US, is returning for season 2.
Line of Duty's Adrian Dunbar will, of course, be back as the eponymous sleuth, who is now working as a police consultant following his exit from the force.
The show was based on real life retired detectives who have been re-joining police forces in a consultancy role to help out in the face of increasingly over-stretched resources, which would surely mean there are plenty more stories to tell given that wealth of inspiration to draw from.
