He is listed for the week after on both the BBC and Radio Times, even if he does die I couldn't imagine them making it that painstakingly obvious before the episode has even aired

Do you remember a few years back when House of Cards was new, they did a huge huge amount of promo for season 2. Kevin Spacey and Kate Mara were basically on every chat show, every morning show, interviews everywhere saying how exciting season 2 was, how it was such a great show to be on and how they love working together.

Then Kate Mara was killed off about 30 minutes into episode 1.

I’m starting again from series 1 and they mention hillside pretty much half an hour into it! I think you’re all onto it with H being hillside, 100%. Especially that Waitrose Dot worked there too

Can I just say as someone who's a total newbie to the TV obsessive world, I'm so proud of myself for coming up with this theory in the other thread!!!

Hope it's true lol

We rewatched all the series' again last week and it’s amazing all the little things throughout that you never would have picked up on if you didn’t know what had happened!!

All pages are watermarked with the actors name for that reason 👍🏼 Gregory Piper who plays Ryan Pilkington said the finale scripts were issued on a “need to know” basis. I think the actors only get scripts for the episodes they are in.

I think this is really common with these types of shows. I’m sure I remember reading about Broadchurch and the guilty person didn’t even know it was them until literally the last moment when they were about to film it.

Another fun example is in Star Wars and no one in the cast or crew knew Darth Vader was Luke’s father until the premiere apart from Mark Hamill, George Lucas and the director.
 
For anyone worried about LOD being postponed due to the DofE’s death - Phew!

Liz would've been on to the phone BBC, informing them they keep Line of Duty on, "one has ones notepad with ones deductions, and one needs ones fix of Steve Arnott and Philip wanted to see that bent bastard Ryan given a seeing to".

put it in a spoiler because I know not everyone will find this terrible naff comment appropriate.
