  • Dont think carmichael is bent - its too obvious. I think she thinks hastings is bent and thinks him trying to move conversation towards H is simply him deflecting away from himself. 
  • I do enjoy it but hope that this is the final series

    me too .. thing is it's so, popular and such a money spinner (for BBC and ITV World Productions) that the Golden Goose will be allowed to continue laying them there eggs

    Yeah as much as I love it I feel the same. I wouldn't be against another series or even multiple series as long as this whole storyline closes on Sunday. That's not going to happen so I do hope it comes to a close. 
  • I'm pretty sure Ged Mercurio has said there is another series.

    During the interview with Davidson, Carmicheal was tapping her pen on the table, it was Morse code for H !!!!!!
    I'm still astonished that anyone knows Morse Code. I learnt it for my DofE 40 years ago but had forgotten most of it a few years later. I very much doubt a DCI would know the first thing about it, let alone be able to pick up what was being signaled when in that situation. 
  • Heavy weekend so I was in and out of consciousness during the episode so may have missed it, but why are they lying about who killed Pilkington? Am I being really stupid?

    H is dot dot dot dot .. could be a reference to the late D I Dot Cottan ? ((:>)

    Just clever by Jed to get people talking IMO. There is no H, the four dots by Cottan was because there are four people, not because it was H. There has been something pointing towards a H in each episode, the kitchen tiles, the H in graffiti when Ted meets Kate and now this. All just playing with the viewer for me. 
  • I love Line of Duty but I hope they don't jump the shark with it just to go after viewing figures. There isn't a great deal more road they can go down with the storylines so I'd want them to wrap it up in 1 more season (can't see them doing it this one) so it can end as a great show rather than being one people remember for going on too long.

  • I think the current story arc around 'H' or the 4th man will be wrapped up this week and any new series would be a completely new story.

    I'd be up for that to be honest. I think Jed is a good writer and the series still has potential. But after 6 series this storyline has to finish. 
  • H is Carmichael.

    'Look further than the RACE CLAIM' - take 'Race Claim' from Carmichael and you get.......... H!
  • There's a lot to clear up in one episode next week, such as who's H, Steve missing his drug test & Hastings and the £50K, feels like another series.

    Ah, but an anagram of Carmichael is 'acclaim her'. Will she get all the glory and not Ted?

    Or if the show is finished, ac-12 get disbanded but we find out who H is... and that he gets away with it. 
  • I do hope this doesn't end up going down the road that Game of Thrones went trying to shoehorn everything in at the end. Line of Duty does not deserve that ignominy.

    It's difficult to gauge. Mecurio wants to do another series but it hasn't been commissioned yet. So I suppose it depends on what he thinks the chances are/were of getting series 7 (or more) - if he thinks it's unlikely then I can see an end to the storyline with maybe Hastings either banged up or he goes into retirement in a blaze of glory having identified the main (fourth) man/woman! But if Mecurio thinks another series is definitely on the cards then it could finish next week with yet another BIG cliff hanger.

    neither did Game of Thrones, but Weiss & Benioff were allegedly paid a bonus to wrap it before it went stale, instead they made it spoil quicker...

    Hope the same never happens again to any TV show.

    I had the same question. Surely you’re allowed to shoot someone if they’re pointing a gun at you?

    My guess was her only way out was to say she shot him and therefore gets out of the police and into Jail.

    weiss and beinhoff basically got out of their game of thrones contract to do the next star wars trilogy, which they've now lost (allegedly because their ideas were awful). They have got next to no writing credits before or since GOT, i think they were just massive fans of great source material (which is why GRRM gave them the rights), but are really terrible writers.
  • This now makes Coronation Street seem interesting to be honest.  Good for insomniac though .
    Why do you bother?
  • Anyone think that’s it for Adrian Dunbar, or will he get out of being pensioned off?
  • IF they are to make another series, I'd like to see AC12 solve this case with Ted getting a promotion as reward. Kate to come back and lead AC12 with Steve. 
  • Anyone think that’s it for Adrian Dunbar, or will he get out of being pensioned off?
    Difficult to say, fella. If he proves that the CC and/or DCC are corrupt then he saves his job (subject to an explanation of the £50k!!).

    That is the next series,  retired Hastings pulling the strings of kate and arnott
  • My wife  is one of those people who struggles to recall people's names -she barely remembers mine at times and finds it far easier to replace it with an expletive! Can you imagine the agony she is in trying to follow all the various characters? It would be funny to watch if it weren't for the fact that she keeps asking me "so who is such and such". It must have taken us two hours to finish last night's episode!!!
