Yet in May it was claimed that the BBC police drama and Peaky Blinders will be returning to filming as long as cast members adhere to social distancing regulations.
Cast and crew of the two shows will have to ‘maintain a two-metre distance from others, and wash their hands regularly’, reports The Sun.
A BBC spokesperson said at the time: ‘In light of the spread of Covid-19, after much consideration, the producers Caryn Mandabach Productions and Tiger Aspect Productions of Peaky Blinders Series 6 have postponed filming.
‘World Productions on Line of Duty Series 6 have suspended filming, both in consultation with and supported by the BBC.

‘We will continue to review all productions on a case-by-case basis and will continue to follow the latest news and advice from the Foreign Office, World Health Organisation and Public Health England.’
Earlier this week, Vicky revealed she has had ‘no word’ on when season six of Line Of Duty will be able to resume filming.
Speaking via FaceTime on The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X on Thursday, the actress, 37, said the cast had begun work on the forthcoming season of the police drama prior to the UK’s lockdown during the coronavirus crisis.
Of how far along they were in their shooting schedule, Vicky said: ‘We were about four weeks of a sixteen week shoot and you know when you’re just getting into the groove and you’re like “yeah”, and then, that was it.’

Chris then asked her when filming may resume, and she went on: ‘There is no word, I don’t know.
‘You know, I’m hearing lots about certain productions – obviously the soaps are being quite vocal about… they’re going back I think next week – so you know, there’s movement.
‘But the thing is Jed Mercurio – who writes [Line of Duty], produces and is our showrunner – he was a doctor before he was a writer, so he’s not going to cut any corners, do you know what I mean?
‘We’re going to make sure that when we go back, it’s safe to do so, so when that day is, I don’t know.’
