Caroline McComb from McCombs Coach Travel is joined by C\u00e1el\u00e1n McVeigh from the Grand Central Hotel as it is announced that new dates have been added for the hugely popular Line of Duty Experience <\/strong>(\u00a365pp), the original tour of filming locations from the hit TV series, on Saturday 8th<\/sup> October, 5th<\/sup> November and 3rd<\/sup> December.\u00a0 For more information or to book go to\u00a0www.mccombscoaches.com<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0or call 028 9086 6162.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The tour starts at Belfast\u2019s Grand Central Hotel in Bedford Street which is located beside the Invest NI building – the setting for AC-12 HQ<\/em>. There will be various stops across the City Centre including \u2018Pelbury House\u2019<\/em> the headquarters of the Central Police force which provided the backdrop of Ted Hastings famous peaked-cap adjustments; \u2018Kingsgate Printing Services\u2019, <\/em>the building used as a front for members of the OCG (Organised Crime Gang); the Lorry Park where Kate shot Ryan Pilkington before doing a runner with Jo Davidson in Series 6 and of course the iconic Subway<\/em> location, the favourite meeting point for Steve and Kate to have their secret rendezvous, and perhaps the most striking spot to get that LOD selfie!<\/p>\n

There\u2019ll be the chance to visit the sites of some of the most memorable car chases including the crash from Series 6 when DC Chloe and DI Arnott had been transporting Jimmy Lakewell from prison to AC-12 HQ to interrogate him when the police convoy was attacked by the OCG as well as the bridge where DI Fleming dramatically fired an assault riffle at a fleeing four-wheel drive, killing her dodgy partner and crime gang mole, Dot Cotton.<\/p>\n

Other filming locations on the tour include Brentiss Prison <\/em>which viewers watched prisoners being escorted to, including Detective Superintendent Jo Davidson after her arrest; Tresco Storage<\/em>, the company used in Series 3 by Danny Waldron to store the decapitated head of Linus Murphy which was later discovered by Steve; and who could forget the incident in the opening episode of Series 6 that first made viewers suspect that DCI Davidson was a bent copper, when enroute to raid the address of a suspect in the murder of Gail Vella Hickies, she redirected the convoy to Hickey\u2019s Bookmakers for what she \u2018suspected\u2019 was an armed robbery.<\/p>\n
