MARTIN Compston is bringing his AC-12 co-stars together in aid of a very special cause that is close to his heart.
Martin, known for his role as DS Steve Arnott in BBC smash hit drama Line of Duty, will reunite with Vicky McClure and Adrian Dunbar in Port Glasgow Town Hall for a "one off" Q&A on March 19 in aid of Ardgowan Hospice.
They will be joined by the show's creator Jed Mercurio.

Martin has been patron of the Greenock-based hospice since losing his own uncle, Joe Hendry, who was cared for by its compassionate staff around a decade ago.
The Greenock actor, who shot to fame in hit 2002 film Sweet Sixteen, says the hospice was a tower of strength and support and this is the reason why he is so passionate about his role as its patron.
The big-hearted actor has previously said: "Being a patron of the hospice means a hell of a lot of me.
“My uncle Joe Hendry, who was full of life and a well-known character, was cared for by the hospice in his final days.
“I was younger at the time, but I can vividly remember that the care they gave him was first class as they made him as comfortable as possible.”
Since becoming patron, the Line of Duty star has been on a mission to raise as much as possible to help the charity care for other families in his local area experiencing what his family did.
In 2020, Martin purchased the first leaf on the Ardgowan "memory tree" – a special memorial for families to pay tribute to their loved ones.
Martin has raised thousands of pounds for the place of care over the past decade by bringing in big names, such as British music star Example and Scottish comedian Frankie Boyle.
He is now hoping to raise thousands by reuniting with his co-stars for a one-off show which we can give you access to.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
