    Never had to pause and discuss (rewind) so many times. Stephen Graham’s scouse mumbling doesn’t help

    Fucking hell tough crowd! 

    I think Stephen Graham is again absolutely walloping it as DC Corbett 

    The Hastings stuff with any other programme would normally be a massive giveaway but it's too obvious. 

    I think this series is up there with all the others

    Not the best series but enjoying it. Agreed about Graham, think he's playing a fantastic part. Very good actor.

    I struggled with tonight's episode and it feels like a Parody at times with the amount of acronyms. Will stick with it but if super Ted "mother of Mary" Hastings is H I will be gutted. 

    Ted is innocent OK.

    Probably wrong, but since they announced there'd be a series 5 and a series 6, I've been wondering with this series will end up with Hastings being outed as H, but there's a slight hint that actually he's been set up. And then series 6 would be revealing the coverup and unmasking who's actually responsible. So far the whole "property development" subplot looks like it'd fit with Hastings being stitched up - I mean for goodness sake, it's just a slightly more respectable version of the "I'm a Nigerian Prince and I will reward you for helping me to smuggle money out of the country" emails.

    So let me get this right.
    We've got an armed organised gang running about , not any old gang but one in the 2 previous raids have opened fire and on one of the raids killed was it 3 serving police officers. 
    Now there's about 8 in this gang and theve now acquired semi automatic weapons from the previous heist.
    The police have received info another jobs on.
    Now this is a police force that will turn up with at least a dozen officers to a dawn raid for a suspected drug pusher or someone whose let a flare off at a football match.
    This police force hasn't got enough armed officers on the scene to deal with a diversion.
    Blimey half the British police force, the army and if there was a bit of water within a 100 miles the navy would be involved in taking this gang out.

    Surprised no one has yet to mention that The Caddy may still be alive. Also, who killed Hargreaves as the gang leader insisted he shot at his legs.

    Yep in one shot there was an improvised tourniquet on his leg, a sure sign of a catastrophic bleed.

    Who gave Arnott the information about how to make the phone call from the phone box. I may have missed something here.

    The details about the phone box, the card and what to say, were on the soundfile they found on Maneet's computer.
    I than' yow. I must have slipped out for a beer or something.
    If only they invented a facility whereby you could pause telly.


    If only, mate, if only!

    For my part I have actually applied one at a car crash, I am a part-time fire-fighter. Pretty gruesome.

    Not yet. But the shark is definitely in the water.

    Last nights was too far fetched.....undercover or not, the powers that be are not going to let a bunch of nutters loose with automatic firearms, especially after they topped a couple of old bill previously, and now the undercover cop has killed a high ranking old bill as well.....its just ridiculous tosh!

    It's definitely a bit farfetched, but I also watched Captain Marvel the other day and although I believe in life on other planets, I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon.

    It's still gripping tv and keeping viewers hooked/guessing.

    Hate to break it to you but it's a drama not a reality show.
