LINE OF DUTY - thread 3 - NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

Thought better do new thread. Hope haven’t jumped on anyone’s toes

I think Buckels is part of it and guilty, but I think Jo is throwing him under the bus to save herself.

Thanks for the new thread.

So , Buckells is Incompetent , I mean Buckells is Innocent, where’s my pot of white paint......

I’ve been watching from the beginning

On series four

It makes far more sense

It’s all I’ve done over the weekend

@30not13

Was anyone else here waiting for Definately!!

Definately

I think Buckels is guilty of something but also he a pawn for this for sure!

👀

Kates smarter than that she's letting Jo have the win with buckels and still investigating surely?

Jackie Laverty was a pawn in the thing where OCG got coppers’ dna on people and killed them then kept the evidence used that to blackmail the copper.
Jo looks to me like a woman being blackmailed by ocg.

@TheSpottedZebra

See, the erectile disfunction DID come up again (fnarr fnarr) for whichever poster thought it was an odd thing for another poster - ok all of us - to remember.

I felt vindicated, @TheSpottedZebra!

I thought Kate and Ted grinning and thanking each other was a bit OTT? To show they know it's not Buckells?

No way is Buckles corrupt enough to have survived this long, but also stupid enough to still have the Vella files in his car

I definately was 30not13 😁

Really good episode in my opinion

@Whatwouldscullydo

I agree. It all happened too quickly, I’d have thought they’d gather more evidence before hauling him in. But it makes Jo feel she’s fooled Kate

Yes I was expecting the reply on the laptop to be definately 🤣

Jo has definitely set Buckells up and she's using Kate. I still think Kate is undercover for Ted (that knowing look between them when she left AC12 after the death of Lisa) but I think Jo has probably guessed she's undercover and is manipulating the situation.

Bloody Ryan though! How many more is he going to kill this series???

Does anyone else get tense as soon as the BBC lady warns viewers that some people may find scenes upsetting?

@JustLyra

Yeah. That was dodge!

Why didn’t the OCG/ scrapyard people just put the freezer in their crusher, or take it down to the council tip, or drop it into the canal. I don’t think the council normally take swabs from old dumped freezers just in case they have been storing body parts.

If I had a crime scene freezer to dispose of that’s what I would do.

Yes she looks terrified to me. Something not right.

@PussyCatEatingEasterEggs I don't go back to work until Thursday. Trying to work out if I can fit them all in by end of play Wednesday.
Suppose the family day out is off on Tuesday.

I am enjoying this but don't really understand everything. I haven't watched previous seasons. Would it better to just binge watch them? Or is there a good précis somewhere?

So did Steve drink all that wine and took his meds then drive over to see Steph straight after? He seemed sober when he arrived, so am confused.
Don't worry, Ted will sort this - it will all be done to the letter. TO THE LETTER.

Well, that was twistier and turnier than a great big twisty turny thing.

I went from thinking Buckells is a baddie (plays golf, knows Ryan, is a Mason), to oh no that's a red herring it's all Jo, to somewhere in between.

They are amazing, Majestic, so they definitely warrant a binge.

I agree, I don't think Jo is bad but she's definitely running scared. She looked upset that Farida had been assaulted in prison and I think she's trying to be as good as she can whilst being forced to be dodgy. Why though?
