Hustle Is Back

I just spotted that the sixth series of Hustle starts on January 4th (I know, I'd call it a season, but the BBC calls it a series). They've confirmed the cast list:
Mickey Stone - Adrian Lester
Ash Morgan - Robert Glenister
Sean Kennedy - Matt Di Angelo
Emma Kennedy - Kelly Adams
Albert Stroller - Robert Vaughn
Eddie - Rob Jarvis
DCI Lucy Britford - Indira Varma
Edmund Richardson - Patrick Ryecart
DI Silk - Zubin Varla
Harold Holmes - Edward Gower
Tamir Abu-Alsaud - Paul Chahidi
Bank Clerk - Christopher Keegan
Kevin - Wesley Theobald
So it looks like they're sticking with the cast from last season. I was hoping that they might bring Marc Warren back (and possibly Jaime Murray) as the Danny/Mickey rivalry was often entertaining (Hustle hasn't been the same since season series 3, but that could be a writing problem that would have happened anyway). It's not clear to me yet whether DCI Lucy Britford will be a regular character. It's also not clear if Robert Glenister will have a relatively small role this series (Robert is the brother of Philip Glenister, best known for his role as DCI Gene Hunt - perhaps the DCI will move forward a couple of decades to appear in Hustle?), he's the only actor to have appeared in every episode of Hustle.
