Are we sure Tony Gates is dead?

VanillaSugar2021 · 02/05/2021 21:40

Yes, he was hit by a car.

DH has shouted out “Neil Morrissey!”

??

This is disappointing!

jesusmaryjosephandtheweedonkey · 02/05/2021 22:00

Not been this disappointed since Game of Thrones final

Yup. Buckles doesn’t have the brains. H is still out there.

Looks like Jed got bored and chucked out the easiest option.

toffeebutterpopcorn · 02/05/2021 22:02

It’s not really him though. I did predict that he could get the blame but it wouldn’t really be him.

Ho hum.

MotherOfGodWeeFella · 02/05/2021 22:04

Actually I thought it was pretty clever - Osborne was H through his failure to do anything about corruption. Ted confessed (I shed a year). And I was kind of right about Buckells.

MotherOfGodWeeFella · 02/05/2021 22:04

Tear!

Sweetchocolatecandy · 02/05/2021 22:05

Disappointing finale! Poorest episode so far IMO.

There is no 'H'. 'H' was the incorrect code name for the 4th man/ 4th dot, which was buckells

Come on Ged FFS you promised us soooo much more than that limp ending.

HouseofWindsor · 02/05/2021 22:06

I was so hoping Carmichael was going to say to Hastings that she believed him a d agreed it was Osborne and she would get him !

But no. Sad

ErrolTheDragon · 02/05/2021 22:10

DeclineAndFall seems about right...they seem to have left it open for another series.

OvertheRainbow2U · 02/05/2021 22:14

I am so disappointed.

The grand finale I expected was not to be.

If I had a firework right now I'd douse it in water and then try to light it.

At least I'd have known not to get excited about the outcome.

Stopstaringatmehenry · 02/05/2021 22:16

Sorry Jed, that was a damp squib.

TinaTurnoff · 02/05/2021 22:20

Was Ted implicating himself in order to galvanize an ‘institutional corruption’ case, falling on his sword to get others investigated? Was Lomax the first signatory on the prison doc, and if so, what happened next? Was that overlooked? confused

CormoranStrike · 02/05/2021 22:20

That was quite a self indulgent ending.

No way is Buckles H.

Neonprint · 02/05/2021 22:21

It would have been rally naff if it was a daft plot twist.

I've been watching line of duty from the start (tiny bit smug over all the Johnny come lately) Grin and honestly I think this fits in great with the story arc. Yes it's silly in places but it does stick to a realism about corruption not just being about individuals.

If you want some naff action for the sake of it there's plenty of stuff out there.

Agree!
LuluJakey1 · 02/05/2021 22:35

I went to the fridge to grab a Kitkat and thought I had missed who it was. I can't believe it was Buckle? Not in a million years- thick as mince. I was waiting for another revelation. It was a real disappointment. So much still unanswered. What were all the photos of James Nesbitt about?

Mrsjayy · 02/05/2021 22:38

What a total pile of shite that was, I mean the split of the ocg and buckles 🙄. I'm a bit annoyed I mean clearly Osbourne is the last man standing but can any one be arsed to care!

Lottapianos · 02/05/2021 22:43

Seemed like the end for the whole show and I really hope I'm right. There is no more flogging of dead horses to be done, surely. Very disappointing series

Thatisnotwhatisaid · 02/05/2021 22:44

Ha, I’ve found my people... Such a disappointing finale, Buckles of all people?! That wet lettuce. I expected more, much more. Obvs left it open for another series despite protesting this would be the last. Sigh.

Nith · 02/05/2021 22:45

I just knew that whatever happened, there would be loads of people on her saying how disappointed they are. It happens at the end of every high profile series. There have been so many convoluted, unworkable, and highly fanciful theories flying about that it's inevitable that the writers and producers couldn't hope to top them. People really need to come back to reality.

Nith · 02/05/2021 22:45

On here, not on her.
