Line of Duty skit to feature in BBC Sport Relief this year, with Lee Mack and Harry Potter actor co-starring

Sport Relief have announced their line-up for a star-studded night of entertainment, music and comedy, as their annual televised charity event returns on Friday March 13.

This year's event will feature a hilarious segment dedicated to Line of Duty.

The skit will see AC-12's Hastings, Arnott and Fleming go up against a corrupt cop, played by Jason Isaacs, who is best known for playing Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter films. His lawyer will be played by comedian Lee Mack.

A description on BBC's website reads: "A special visit to AC 12 sees Line of Duty’s Arnott, Fleming and Hastings grill corrupt cop Jason Isaacs. Will his famous, yet inept, lawyer be able to bail him out?"

With season 6 of the top BBC drama series currently being filmed in Belfast , this will give audiences a chance to reacquaint themselves with the scrupulous police trio whose M.O. is hunting down bent coppers and sticking to the letter of the law...

The line-up for this year's Sport Relief will also include a parody of the successful BBC show Killing Eve.

It will be presented this year by the likes of Alex Scott, Oti Mabuse, Emma Willis, Tom Allen, Maya Jama and Rylan Clark-Nea - who will be joined by seasoned hosts Gary Lineker and Paddy McGuinness.

Elsewhere, Sir Andy Murray will join comedian Romesh Ranganathan for a round of mini golf, while Greg James will take a look back at some of the best ever Sport Relief challenges.

Sport Relief 2020, is live from Salford on Friday 13 March, BBC One from 7pm.
