There was a scene in the last episode that made me wonder if it could be possible that Kate and Steve are in it together - As in both are H working together from within AC-12....when they met in the underground car park near the end of the episode they said let’s get the job done....that could mean anything! And would explain why Kate was so upset when she thought Steve had betrayed her and was reluctant to drop her weapon as she didn’t know who she could trust 🧐 and she did look a bit evil 😂
I think finding this out would be the final straw for Ted considering he is so vehemently against bent coppers and always calls them his best team....imagine if his best team have both been bent and manipulating Ted the entire time?! LIES COST LIVES 😭

Ok tinfoil hat is defo on but hmmmmm!!!

Ok as we go almost into the weekend
Who’s the fave for H?
Hastings
Steve
Kate
Carmichael
Thurwell
Jo
Andrea Wise
Osborne
Nigel Morton (gaining traction on social media )
Buckells
Anyone else?

I was a firm Kate as H but now thinking Steve and it all circling back to Season one ep 1)
I know a lot of people think one of the big 3 would be awful. I think it would be a fantastic twist.
Although I think Nigel Morton (the slacker benefits cheat with a sinister background and mean streak would be an inspired choice)

My theory is that Jo knows who H is (but she isn’t H both because I like her 🤣 and she was obviously genuinely getting orders from someone else). So based on that I’d rule out Kate, she seems to really trust her and brought her in to try to help her out of the mess.

She seemed to trust Steve in her interview which would make him less likely to me, but she was obviously very suspicious of Hastings and Carmichael so they’re my top two suspects.

Nigel Morton is a good shout too if they want to flip back.


I think it might end up being Osbourne though, just because it seems so obvious, and/or the shock will be that what Jo said about the splinter groups of the OCG is true within the police too - more than one H.

Yeah Osborne would seem an obvious choice as it would tie in neatly with the very start of the show but I’d be so disappointed. He’s not exactly featured large has he?
 
Sky bet fave is pass ag Pat at being H but I just don’t see it.

I can’t see it being any of the 3. Kate nearly getting killed. Steve been thrown down the stairs. In a podcast someone said that they thought Ted was working with Gail and that’s why he disposed his laptop. We still don’t know the real reason. So what if he was communicating with Gail and feeding her info?

I would hate it to be Osbourne or Carmichael- there would be no shock factor whatsoever. Wise too. It had better not be Thurwell, I want it to be someone we’ve seen from day one. Someone we can go back and try to see everytime we were deceived. I truly believe it’s Kate from what I’ve seen. I would like it to be either her or Buckells for shock factor. My dream H would’ve been Nige though, miss you Nige x

I wonder if Jo is H, and has been taking orders from whoever took over the OCG when Tommy died. (Thurwell? Morton? His garden was HUGE).

I predict that the nasty guards/OCG are trying to break her OUT of Brentiss because she is the HEIR of Tommy Hunter. Her real name is Jo Hunter.
Jo certainly was playing the feeble female this season - a smokescreen or genuinely terrified?

Who runs or who is top dog at Hullside? I think H refers to Hillside not. Specific person but more a group of people or a place where the tit goes down
It was Buckells 😂

I could see her being part of it more than she’s pretending (though I don’t think so, and I’d hate Jed if he did that haha) but I don’t think she can possibly be H when people are ordering her around and she’s clearly so uncomfortable with it. The whole point of H is that they’re in control of it all, surely?

Ryan wouldn’t have been sent to intimidate and hold a gun to H’s head for example.
 
I may be rambling so correct me if I’m wrong. I’m starting to think it could be Kate as well now. In series 2 when Tommy was ambushed, the police woman that was looking after him, Kate was sleeping with her husband wasn’t she? Maybe she was getting information from him that he was getting from his wife about Tommy’s whereabouts and he needed getting rid of...

If she is or was H she would have known that through Dot and Ackers, both of whom were corrupt and at the behest of H, because the order to kill Tommy was to protect the corrupt higher ups including H.

If H is one of the main 3 I will be furious and feel robbed of all the time and emotional investment. I’d love Tommy to be alive but it still doesn’t explain whose the top dog is...
