Line of Duty

[AmexRuislip]

The plot is laughable nonsense. The writer should be bashed with a baseball bat and thrown over a barrister.

Corrected for you!

 

[AmexRuislip]

Watched the whole series last night after finished work, completed by 0200, didn't disappoint

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

The weakest of the four series by a long shot. Need a villain you really take a disliking too and as have said before missing key characters who were killed off in series three. 7/10

If 'H' is Hastings??
Then why did he shoot balaclava man in the AC12 HQ, when any number of the coppers, who were already armed, could've taken him out?
Tying off loose ends?

 

[HantsSeagull]

it would make absolutely no sense for Hastings to be H - but i guess that won't stop them

 

[BLOCK F]

Enjoyed it, but I don't think it was quite up to the last series. Nevertheless, for me, still best programme I have seen this year.
Thought we might hear a bit about Maneet giving Hilton the files and I still don't quite fathom why Nick Huntley was quite so jumpy when first interviewed by AC12. Maybe, I am a bit slow!
Can't conceive that Hastings will be H, and finally, I reckon Thandie must be one of the most stunning and beautiful ladies I have ever seen!

Very good series.

There was a crap scene half way through the series, where Ross Huntley as the interviewee on potentially serious charges, turned the tables and interrogated the interviewers. Absolute bull - would not be permitted. So far fetched, I kept laughing at its ludicrosity.

 

[Weststander]

In the end it showed she was armless...

I tried that comment last night, as well as Roz Huntley is stumped on this one .... barely got a smile from my fellow viewers.

 

[Motogull]

Did anyone understand that? Would appreciate an explanation!

I think:

R Huntley was not bent but felt obliged to impress/do what Hilton wanted, who plainly was bent.
Also in the bent gang was Rupal, the criminal lawyer and a couple of hoods who wore balaclavas (who protected and used by the educated ones).

Overall a decent series, but R Huntley's pursuant of the simpleton (which was the originating story) and the black fella's lightning fast conversion to the bent gang were the 'let downs' for me. Maybe to draw people in they need something a bit silly to kick it off?

Agree about the conversion. It smacked of being a very late change to the script.

 

[desprateseagull]

Was very tense, until Huntley confessed. Then it became bit of a farce, imho.

I'm with you there on disliking that Americanism, my fellow fan!

Exactly. Americanisms are okay from Americans but we should avoid them at all costs even when in America (unless there's absolutely no other way of making the natives understand). Over here, definitely not. Don't get me started on people in shops and cafes saying "Can I get ...?" You're British, FFS ...

My most annoying question and if I was serving them I would say Yes you can and walk away.

 

[drew]

Dramatic licence allows them to get away with a few things.

Enjoyable series, as they all have been.

As for can I, may I, FFS, get a life!!!!

 

[lawros left foot]

The posh solicitor is the key to this, he's a bad'un I tells ya.

As I said, he was a bad un'

 

[Lenny Rider]

I reckon H is Archie from Emmerdale, was a strong but peripheral character in series 2 and turned up this time interviewing suspects but perhaps more significantly was up on the suspects board himself next to ACC Hilton.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Lot of 'H's in there

Thanks for the explanation [emoji106]

Quite.

As someone on here once said, "no, you can't get it, I have to get it as I work here".

There is one Americanism that is proper ****ish, and that is 'pissed'. Its pissed off you wankers.
