Sooperstar Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I've thought for weeks that it is surely Gill. She's such a shit character though, that I hope it isn't her. Clearly not Hastings and his two wee pals will get him out of the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Series is the entire production of the show and a Season is the segmented parts of it in my book. For example I might say that LOST is the best TV series ever created and that Season 4 is the best part of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavman81 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 This series is brilliant - love it. I’m actually looking forward to the finale as I type this. Poor Hastings. Bit daft leaving £50K on the sideboard though - not even under the bed or in a handy travel microwave. This season has got a bit daft but hey ho. Cracking viewing.

siegementality Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 On 30/04/2019 at 08:51, I P Knightley said: Between Hastings being offered a way out of his financial hole until he was put in front of Anna Maxwell Martin, I agree that this series has had its low points. It's too much of a character shift from the previous four series; we're expected to believe that the man who's interested in one thing and one thing only - bent coppers - walks blindly into a £100,000 agreement with an ex-copper he doesn't know in the middle of the biggest corruption scandal he's ever investigated? It has me tearing my hair out. I'll be glad when Sunday's episode is done and I can forget about it. If it's any of the three main characters, that'll be me done with LoD. How could one of them be the big criminal mastermind yet have such a shitty life with no trappings from what should be pretty substantial proceeds of their activities? Because it’s the easiest way to get caught!! Live on a coppers wage, until retirement. Then you can spend all your ill gotten gains however you like, with no scrutiny. Not rocket science.

Steve_Jersey_HMFC Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 (edited) Liked the episode and the twist although hate it when Tv characters have the eureka moment that Arnott has re the Morse code. Like how many times have officers poured over Dot dying declaration and not noticed it and suddenly Arnott does. ps hadn’t clocked until he was having his interview the young lad was the kid from the bike in s1. Same actor and everything 7 years later Edited May 5, 2019 by Steve_Jersey_HMFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
