The BBC has announced that Hustle has been recommissioned for a sixth series, to be shown in 2010.
The fifth series, being simulcast on the BBC HD channel, concludes tonight. Though the press release doesn't mention technical details, it's very likely that the new series will also be filmed in high definition.
Hustle creator, writer and executive producer, Tony Jordan, says: "We are really pleased with the way that series five has been received, it's always difficult to maintain a drama's following when you've been off air for a period of time. Having a fabulous actor like Adrian Lester back in the fold has really helped.
"I've already got some great ideas for series six, so I can't wait to get cracking on the scripts."
Filming is due to take place in London later this year.
