Where to Watch ‘Line of Duty’

Line of Duty may have premiered nearly a decade ago, but it’s still going strong years later. The British police procedural follows Anti-Corruption Unit 12 (AC-12) and the detectives who work there, uncovering corruption within the force. Martin Compston stars as Detective Sergeant Steve Arnott, alongside Vicky McClure as Detective Inspector Kate Fleming and Adrian Dunbar as Superintendent Ted Hastings.

And while we’ve enjoyed our fair share of British TV over the years, from Downtown Abbey to Sherlock to Peaky Blinders, Line of Duty seems to have topped them all. Today, the series was crowned the the U.K.’s highest rated TV drama of the past 13 years, per Deadline, pulling in almost 11 viewers in its latest episode.
