The family of Line of Duty actor Brian McCardie has announced his cause of death.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter) last week, the actor’s sister revealed that he died following an aortic dissection.
He was also known for starring in the 1995 historical drama Rob Roy, starring Liam Neeson, Jessica Lange, and Brian Cox.
Although he’d appeared in several screen roles throughout his career, the Scottish star was best known for playing organised crime boss Tommy Hunter in BBC police drama Line of Duty.
