LINE of Duty star Martin Compston is gearing himself up for a big day of title celebrations.
The Celtic-daft actor, who was seen partying with the players after December’s League Cup win, has taken to social media ahead of the trophy day match against St Mirren.

The league title will be brought out at Parkhead today while supporters prepare to fill the city in honour of their fourth consecutive run out as Premiership champions.
Last night, Compston posted a photo on his Instagram story of him in the green and white hoops, but it wasn’t a shirt of his beloved club.
The jersey was of Eriskay FC, a team from the small Outer Hebridean island who are on a recruitment drive as they struggle to maintain a full squad.
The celeb has showed his support for them before by playing for them in a one-off against Iochdar Saints, wearing number 12 as a nod to the AC-12 crime unit from his popular show.

The island club commented on his photo: “Our mate Martin looking class in his new EFC home top.”
Then early this morning he was seen partaking in interesting pre-match preperations.
The Greenock-born man took a snap of himself taking a dip in the River Clyde with a caption referencing the Celts’ 55th league title.
Their game kicks off at 12:30pm today as does Hibernian vs Rangers and Dundee United vs Aberdeen in the league’s final weekend.
Just a couple of months ago, Compston joked he would ban his San Francisco 49ers supporting father-in-law from his home if and when the Gers takeover became official, which is yet to happen.
But the fan of the treble-chasing team didn’t seem too worried, saying: “It’s a great time to be a Celtic fan.
“I was born in ’84 so grew up in the 90s and it was dark times for us.
“People always ask me if I get bored of winning. Not at all.
“Long may it continue.”
The bottom half of the split comes to a conclusion and with that the league campaign curtain closes tomorrow.
Then next weekend it’s just the small matter of Celtic and Aberdeen contesting a Scottish Cup final, where the favourites will be without star Reo Hatate due to injury.
