Line of Duty #6

[Scarletfever]

I must be in the minority because I really enjoyed it. I was so relieved that none of the holy trinity were revealed as corrupt.

Maybe not as dramatic as other LoD series finales, but I thought it was good.

The duck was the mate mate mate scene with Kate and Steve in the pub and then with the MO. Valuable time that could have been used giving us a bit of ACTION (proper action that is, we know Steve can’t provide in that department)

Having to rewatch old episodes to block out the pain of that finale. Series 2 Lindsay Denton....aaaaaannnnndddd relax, now we're sucking diesel

The first 3 series were the best. No matter how many times I watch I’m still on tenterhooks. Still jump at the same parts. Nothing will top ‘urgent exit required’

So last week Jo admitted setting Buckells up by planting all the evidence in his car...but it turned out to be him who was setting her up?

I'm with you unpopular opinion but I've watched from day 1 and watched every series multiple times. All my questions got answered even the Kate stuff I didn't care about lol. Yes it wasn't dramatic the ending but it was realistic to how it would happen. Jed had one 60min episode to wrap all up in and I'm okay with it. The door is open for a series 7 if jed really wants to just have to wait and see but I'm just glad thurwell was dead lol no need for Jimmy nesbett to show face.

when you start involving conspiracies there’s only so far you can go with plots- the mole, the boss, the corporation, the president! Just like Prison Break and 24.

Even if you watched it all again from S1 NOTHING would’ve pointed towards Buckells.

It all came down to a bloody spelling mistake.

And AC12 didn’t solve it CHLOE did!

thanks for all the laughs here on this board though

genuinely better endings were worked out here! And I include the Lindsay Denton not being dead theory in that

bloody bastard bullocks ending

 

[petitspois]

I’m going to bed. No doubt I’ll think of more plot holes overnight.

 

[Joy12]

So buckles told Jo to frame him by putting the papers in his car. Hmm....

 

[Homebird44]

Also the q about Osborne promoting his friends in ac 12 - this happens all the time. New managers come in and hire people they have worked with in the past. It’s normal in life isn’t it????

This literally happens every day.

The BBC woman at the end “..and breathe”

That was the worst episode of the whole bastarding season I’m spitting feathers of fury never mind breathing!!!!

 

[PepsiCherry]

I do like how Buckles changed though. S1 he's a shy guy then next time we see him he's this big strong accent and hasn't a clue

I never usually comment on these threads as they move quicker than the Hinch ones but, my two cents on tonight’s episode.

I was less disappointed when I walked in on my husband shagging the neighbour from 3 doors down.

seriously though, I thought that episode was embarrassing. I don’t think at this point even Jed knows what the duck is going on.

Buckells being H is just a pure eye roll. LOD will end up being like the walking dead - people are gonna duck it clean off if they don’t start getting some serious answers.

I just don’t understand how the main cast and even previous members were absolutely pissing their knickers about how ‘explosive’ it was going to be. Did they watch the same episode I did?

We need a series 7 and for it to finish good and proper and for us to see justice. I get those that are saying they like this ‘ending’ because is was true to life in that police corruption will never be proved/Justice served, but not everything has to be so on par with true life.

I watch TV for the story, so I want it to be an ending that is deserved - one that will likely never happen with true life policing.

Anyway, I’m off to eat a twix in bed and seethe about this!

This made me laugh - Aldi dot

Golf clubs though, right there in his office

[aimzalicious]

@H AC12 just seen you've changed your pfp to Fuckells! Love it. Very apt after tonight's ep

 

[Giggling Squid]

We didn’t even get a Ted one liner.

We didn’t even get a Ted one liner.

We got a mother of god

 

[bellinibobble]

You know you’re spending too much time on this thread when your other half asks “Who is Lomax” and you reply “Aldi Dot”

ETA he knew exactly who I meant when I said it though

 

[nolongerlurking]

I started LOD last Saturday, binged the lot in a week because I couldn’t stop watching and I couldn’t wait to watch the finale in real time.. and I was met with THAT!!
However I’m pissed off after dedicating a week of my life, god knows how you all feel after 10 years!!!
