So 'H" was none other than Benny from crossroads! A character of such non entity proportions that I cannot remember ever seeing him in any of the other series
Jed Mercurio is too good of a writer. This is definitely not the end of this story.
On what basis is he a good writer?
A story with more holes in it than a pack of polos. Souless characters. Rushed storylines that make little sense. Poor attention to detail.... I could go on.
I have never understood the hyperbole that follows this turkey of a series around.

Dont go on, that's enough shit chatted.
If you've just watched another hour of it I can understand that sentiment
Still feel the whole H story line should have been wrapped up at the end of the previous series. Feels like it's been dragged out for another whole series for no real reason after that finale.

Genuine question, if it's been shit since series 2 why have you wasted over 24 hours of your life on it?
For a series which has railed against liars being promoted to our highest offices, and their ability to get away with it, it’s not surprising that it had an unsatisfying ending. Because they continue to get away with it…

I have absolutely no idea. Funny enough, my wife normally asks me a similar question when I get back from the Valley.

Nowhere near the same thing. Fair enough both have ended in disappointment this weekend mind.
Very poor episode & no way is Buckles the 4th man. JM must have something on the Director General as I cant see any other reason why they would let such a shit ending go out.

Thats the point I think. Well that's my take on the series. The writer is saying police corruption carries on as normal. The corruption continues and gets swept under the carpet no matter what anti-corruption is in place. The writer wants people to look at police corruption. There are lots of cases throughout LOD that mirror real life, not just the Stephen Lawrence case. People can't wait to show the world their outrage on social media, I think it was 21:55 on this thread when it started...gotta tell the world 1st coz I'm so important and my opinion needs to be heard 1st. It's a TV show. Police corruption is real unfortunately
I thought it was good BTW. To have a shitty copper from series 1 that everybody thought was just a stooge. It's them "bent bastards " that live amongst us.

I don’t really want it that deep from a Sunday night tv show. Just a decent ending would be fine.

Listen to Jeds interviews over the years. He wants people to look into cases. It's deep I know and the ending didn't have the big chase or shootout people wanted but I liked how it turned out to be another one that not many guessed. Im Probably in the minority though that are satisfied

I don't disagree that's what Jed wants and dropping in the real cases shows that. But he could still have done the shootout/big chase etc, because he has done that throughout and that's what got people gripped. I just think he got the ending wrong because its completely unsatisfied the majority.
The reveal that Buckles was a key coordinator for the OCG is like finding out that Graham Norton has been pulling the strings for Al Qaeda for the past 20 years.

Agree that the ending was a bit flat. The episode didn’t have any real drama.

Did Ged Mercurio authorise an overnight stay in Plymouth after episode 6 :-)
