Yes - finally. About to start tonight. 7 episodes. This is in my top three of great crime drama series. The Bridge is second with Shetland third.

The phone will be on silent and MrM had better not interrupt my pleasure. I think he's tempted to watch it though.

Jed Mercurio never ceases to come up with a great story line. Series 3 was probably be best so far for me.

Oh no, please!

? I've been wondering if Hastings will turn out to be H after all ? He's been in so much trouble over the 6 series and always escapes and they pin down yet another junior OCG member. Haven't seen latest episode yet, will be watching it tonight. I was also wandering if H could be female, but changed my mind for some reason, but can't remember why.

Buckle is also high up on my watch list - he's been around in the background since the beginning, treated like a nonentity.

I love this programme ?

We were thinking the unthinkable. Is Ted actually H after all?

This would break my heart ?

Callistemon Mon 12-Apr-21 15:09:33

I'll visit him in prison ?

I think he is hopeless - how he got promoted is a mystery.
But that could be a front, of course.

And where is Bannerjee

I’ll come with you Callistemon! Just couldn’t bear it. ?

Ted is definitely not H. There were a couple of paragraphs online last week and he stated categorically he was not H. He said he would have been horrified if it turned out he was.

I have my suspicions about both of his bosses, especially the Asian male whose name and rank I do not know.

The £50,000 he took is going to come back and bite him I think now that Steve knows it is in Steph's loft.

Does anyone think Ladbrokes are running a book on H????

I was wondering about the Asian guy too - can't remember his name or title. He doesn't like AC12 though. ?️

In my entire life I have never commented on a TV series before, anywhere ?

Grannynise Mon 12-Apr-21 16:44:05

The Asian man is the police commissioner I think.

Maggiemaybe Mon 12-Apr-21 17:37:59

Ted is not H!!!! No, no, no, no, no!!!! Just no.

Catch yerselves on, yer wee gobshites. ?

Ted is simply the best. His interview style with Buckles was brilliant.
I suspect the female Assistant Chief Constable and the police commissioner.
I’m not convinced the cash in Steph’s attic is the £50,000 Ted kept hold of. John Corbett was UCO for years. Steph commented to Steve that drugs became an issue during on of his UCO. We saw him using cocaine. I wouldn’t be surprised if Corbett hadn’t a stash of ill gotten gains

Rohan Sindwhani (played by Ace Bhatti) - he is the current Police and Crime Commissioner for Central Police.

P&CCs- superfluous to requirements imo!!

Iam64 Mon 12-Apr-21 20:17:38

Is the Chief Constable a bent copper?? How scary is Ryan ?

tanith Mon 12-Apr-21 21:12:44

Ryan has the best ‘death stare’ I’ve ever seen. Brilliant acting.

Atqui Mon 12-Apr-21 21:37:55

Maggie maybe ...thanks for photo ..-very impressive technology !
I don’t trust the Deputy chief Constance or the crime commissioner , but then ... who do we trust?!!!!

Atqui Mon 12-Apr-21 21:39:22

I hope Chloe isn’t the one who leaked the info , I like her

Atqui Mon 12-Apr-21 21:53:01

Wondered why the female armed officer was fatally wounded when she was wearing a helmet and presumably a bullet proof vest?

muse Mon 12-Apr-21 22:32:51

My weekly hit of LOD is now Monday morning. By myself! Can't cope with MrM asking questions.

Also listened to podcast tonight with Neil Morrissey interviewed. Gave little away but don't think he's coming back.

I've never known an hour go so quickly. Ep6 was edge of seat stuff. Brilliant. Had to freeze picture to see photo - definitely Jo. Who's she messaging on her laptop?

Think Buckles was a plant but being used.

Poor Steve's got his drug test appointment looming.

Marydoll Mon 12-Apr-21 22:41:11

Just watched the latest episode this evening. It just gets better and better!

Chestnut Mon 12-Apr-21 23:43:38

I've just watched it a day late. There is no way Hastings, Arnott or Kate are bent coppers. I just can't accept that.
Buckle is just too wet to be anything more than 'on the payroll'. He is being controlled.
Jo Davidson is bent but not through choice, she is reluctantly being controlled as was Gates in Series 1.
Ryan has been a full-blood member of OCG through and through since childhood!
Jo Davidson's DNA relative is....no idea.

I’m surprised Buckles ever got past being a basic PC. He has never seemed to know what he’s doing.

BigBertha1 Tue 13-Apr-21 07:37:16

Once Hastings is retired I,'d like to see a spin off featuring him as an independent defender of honesty and truth in public office.

Anna Maxwell Martin is back as Carmichael in the next episode!
