There HAS to be a big twist in the next 2 episodes. We are 4 out of 6 episodes in and we have no new main characters that we care about. Theres no Dot, no Thandie Newton, no scouse guy (terrible with names). No storyline really as in, we already knew from episode 1/2 that Jo was dodgy, Ryan dodgy, Buckles nobody cares about. The twist surely has to be with Ted, Kate or Steve? How else will we care as an audience? No other characters have been built up. Chloe is dull. Freda has barely been shown. Its a big twist, I can feel it.

It could be anyone who isnā€™t a police officer but would have a reason to be on the PNC. So anything from a convicted criminal to someone who got off with a warning.

It doesnā€™t narrow it down much, I know!

My money is still on her being related to Tommy Hunter, it just makes the most sense to me, but who knows?

also anyone who has given their details when reporting a crime is recorded on pnc, as well as victims and witnesses

Yeah I do feel like itā€™s all been quite ā€œobviousā€ to us as an audience so far. As in, we all recognise Ryan and now Kate/Steve do too, we knew Jo was dodgy as soon as she picked up that burner phone (if not before), Buckells is likely a bit of a muppet caught up in something worse than he realised... but whatā€™s coming šŸ˜­

4 out of 7! That's why I think this is gonna be the final season.

But I agree, there's no real storyline in this season - it just seems like tying up of old loose ends. Hence the revival of Jackie Laverty, Ryan etc.

Ep 7 will likely be a 90 min finale to really bring everything to an end.
- I envisage the station being blown up lol
- We find out what H stands for
- Ac12 gets shut down because of H's role in corrupting AC12 and the force at large
- Ted retires and gets to play grandad to John Corbett's kids
- Steph Corbett's role in the OCG is revealed

Yes! And him saying something along the line of ā€œlook how easy this wasā€ on Joā€™s doorstep couldā€™ve been a nod to Vella being gunned down literally on her doorstep.

I thought it had been pretty much confirmed Carl Banks killed Vella? He was bragging in the pub to the CHIS. They would have more than just Ryan available for contract killings. I think Ryan might have killed the CHIS though?
 
7, my bad, but still.. 4 episodes in and no character build up. Ok so Jo, Ryan and Buckles get discovered as being dodgy.. and? We don't care. We want to know who is pulling their strings! Who Gail was on to? And currently there is nobody that would excite us! It would only be exciting imo if it was Kate Ted or Hastings. I suppose they have 3 episodes to introduce somebody but its cutting it fine.

True unless itā€™s some sort of cover up for Ryan again, like when Lisa told AC12 that Miroslav was the one who killed Corbett. Iā€™m too tired to work out if thatā€™s feasible or not šŸ˜‚

Jo is the new Thandie Newton.

There are 7 episodes this series so bit of time left to get proper answers.

There's still quite a few bits from the trailer we haven't seen yet. Is the trailer classed as a spoiler?
The bit where Steve busts through the warehouse and is running down the street, Kate and Jo look like they're being arrested and Kate asking Jo what's going on by a door, she says something like 'someone's behind it', Ted in the lift, the picture of the Big 3 interviewing someone in the glass box? I think something mad will happen with Ryan - Jo will kill him or something, rope in Kate to help her, they're arrested but will get out of it because of her connection to AC12.

Yeah, I think itā€™ll be a victim as opposed to a criminal as thatā€™s less obvious. My thought for a while had been Tommy Hunter but that seems far too popular!

PS: As anyone on the Minghams thread knows, tattle sets p e a d o to autocorrect to pedalo, probably to avoid libel....

Who's Mingham? Are they a pedalo? Yes, I said pedalo

Iā€™ve just rewatched the end and Joā€™s reaction to Jimmyā€™s death was as if she knew him. Couldve been because she knew it was also a warning from Ryan as to what could happen to her but I donā€™t know... šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

Or could she have been tit scared because there's no hiding from the OCG? Even if you're in jail, they can still get to you somehow
