Anyone up for a Ted Hastings appreciation thread?

[JessMariano]

Have just binged S1-4 and am excited to hear it might be back in April.

I’d let Ted call me darlin’ any day of the week, amirite??

@longwayoff yes of course it is! Brain fail Ignore me.

We are starting Series 3 again tonight - they're still very gripping. The new series is the best Mother's Day present . We need a hashtag I think..... #TedIsNotBent

Eek!!!

I'd like a Ted to be my boss, my Dad, my husband, my son, my neighbour and any other male I need to come into contact with.

12 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is exactly the panacea I need to get me through the Brexit shitshow. Nice timing BBC.

Adrian Dunbar fans, have you seen the glorious film Hear My Song? One of my all-time favourites, it's fabulous.

Just love Ted! There is a fab BBC Line of Duty fan group on Facebook - come and join us! m.facebook.com/groups/387805922020405?ref=share

Just joining in with the Ted love.
I won't hear of him being dodgy, missed him on Comic Relief, is it worth tracking down?

He only says about 2 lines and the rest is painful so depends how much you love him saying the bent coppers bit!

Yes good timing by the BBC.

He could probably recite my shopping list and I'd come over a bit unnecessary to be honest.

Signing in for duty...
Surely Kate can't go undercover again?
I've heard this series focuses on the bad guys?
I love how you get the overlaps within the storylines...

I think I read that Kate isn’t going undercover again.

Do we have an air date for series 5 yet? I’m so excited

Starts 29th March (replaces Baptiste which finishes this Sunday)

It starts on the 31st March according to BBC's twitter feed...

Oh yay, not too long!

God I love Ted.

He just can't be corrupt.

Just rewatched season one as the start of my revision for the new series. I am building up to my favourite SuperKate episode in season three - the one-handed lorry hanging, gun-toting one.

When I re-watched Season 3, final episode, I watched the bit where Dot summons help to get out of the interview room four times, as even having seen it several times before I just couldn't believe how audacious Jed Mercurio had been. I've never seen anything like it on TV.

I LOVE Ted.

There is no way he is corrupt. Cannot wait for the new series!

Bumping...ONE HOUR TO GO

C'Mon Ted!

I won't be able to watch til 10 I'll have to stay off Mumsnet

Can someone remind me who was the actual killer of Danny Waldron in season 3- I wanted to rewatch but ran out of time 🙁

it was Hari who killed Danny - orchestrated by Dot.
(i rewatched all four series in the last month to get ready for tonight, and could right now probably have Line of Duty of my Mastermind specialist subject).

Thank you 😊

But was Dot definitely The Caddy...? Or is is just H that they're going to try and track down in S5?

(I'm going to ask HQ to add a spoiler warning to the thread title so we don't spoil things for anyone who isn't yet up to speed )
