Line Of Duty star Vicky McClure has announced her appearance at Nottingham’s Beat The Streets festival later this month.
The actor – herself a Nottingham local – is set to take part in an in-conversation session at with director Shane Meadows. Meadows directed the 2006 cult classic This Is England, in which McClure starred, with the film centred around a group of young skinheads in the 1980s.
Beat The Streets announced the pair’s addition to its program last Friday (January 13); they’ll appear on the itinerary for Sunday January 29.
Per BBC News, festival organiser Georga Akins said: “I’m delighted Vicky and Shane are joining us. Both are known for how much they put back into the city whether it’s creating opportunities for young actors or with Vicky’s Dementia Choir, so they are the perfect pair to join us at the fifth outing of our charity festival.”
