They've been shooting Season 6 for a while now. The actor of Elliot has been on set as well. Doesn't have to mean anything but both the actor of Elliot and the showrunner liked instagram post asking who wants Dillon/Elliot to happen. Thanks for the update. I had seen they were filming a new season since March but all the pics I saw from set revolved around the younger kids plus Jamie; I didn't even see any of Dillon so I was thinking he was no longer part of the cast/only a guest star. I was starting to get worried that they had backed off from anything gay due to the homophobic backlash, but your news is very reassuring because I can't imagine Elliott is back for any other reason than to advance a gay storyline since he is a peer of Dillon, Jamie, etc. rather than the younger kids, nor is he a footballer to be positioned as a mentor to the latter.

Oh I was worried at first too because it seems like Dillon's brother will be a huge part of the season. But here are pics of Elliot actor on set. These pics are almost month apart, and the actor of Elliot is still in the city where they're shooting so hopefully it means he'll be a prominent character in this season.

Oh, also: "Returning series, meanwhile, include football drama Jamie Johnson (26 x 28-minutes), which has been commissioned for series six and seven, and produced by Short Form Film."

Apparently there'll be an exclusive season 6 clip during England vs Croatia Euros match tomorrow. And Patrick Warde is being treated as part of the cast so hopefully this means Dillon is part of the new season. http://instagram.com/p/CQArh7eh6xe

First pic from the new season with Patrick Warde (Dillon): http://instagram.com/p/CQp-YkiA5mY The show's official Instagram channel also posted a Pride sticker earlier this month, unfortunately most of the comments were homophobic. It goes to show how early homophobia in football begins (I'm assuming these are mostly schoolkids posting).

Trailer for the new season which debuts next week. Fair warning though: there's no Dillon or Elliott in the trailer. I guess that makes sense since they have shifted focus to the younger set (including Dillon's little brother, who is in full form as the resident jerk). Even Jamie himself is on the sidelines. I wonder about the context of Dillon and Elliott's appearances, since we know they both are part of the new series.

Word on the street is that Patrick (Dillon) is in the next 2 seasons less because of school

Happy to hear it - hopefully there will be some forward movement on their love lives. The show has been getting a lot of positive press and fan reaction to their recent tackling of racism in football, so I hope they can do something on the homophobia front, too - which is one area too many are united in opposition.
