LINE OF DUTY - thread 3 - NO SPOILERS

[Blondeshavemorefun]

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

And why does Jo look so shifty all the time- she might as well have guilty written across her forehead 🤷‍♀️ she's def throwing Buckells under the bus but I think they are both in it with Ryan as their henchman

@30not13

Was anyone else here waiting for Definately!!

Ha! Me.

I work it out as about 31.5 hours of viewing, @poorbuthappy (the last episode is generally an extra half hour). It's definitely doable!

@MajesticWhine

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?

This is quite a good recap, but tbh seasons 2 and 3 are so good that you’d be mad to miss the fun of watching them yourself.

I really thought Terry was a goner there. Ryan's identity was revealed much earlier in the series than I thought it would be.

I agree that Buckells is being set up by Davidson. The golf clubs were far too over done.

MajesticWhine

It would be best to binge watch all the seasons.

But incase you're pressed for time, here is a 6 min overview:

@NoWordForFluffy

I work it out as about 31.5 hours of viewing, *@poorbuthappy* (the last episode is generally an extra half hour). It's definitely doable!

Now I'm definitely tempted.

I binged watched all 5 previous series in 6 days, so it's definately doable before next weeks episode. Once you start, you literally can't stop so it's very easy to binge

@MajesticWhine please watch from season 1. LOD is too good to watch in the wrong order

I cant say this series is 10/10.
I find the three stooges together can feel staged for sure. Alone and with other cast members they are generally Ok.

I enjoyed it tonight, poor old Steve!

If Steve had drunk that amount of alcohol, taking the meds on top would have serious consequences

@MrsRockAndRoll yes I started with series 4 watched series 5 was pretty confused and then went back to S1

Ah thanks for the recap - brilliant

Tonight was amazing, it's getting harder & harder to wait 7 days

Although I am off work this week so I suppose I could binge the lot

I’m back. Seen all :)

Buckles def being set up / he’s too thick

Who would realty keep files in car

Plus jo is messaging big chief

As I keep saying / I think big chief is (see pic) don’t know his name

I will have a google of bbc sounds

Or is that I player. I have that and an account

Also have Alexa

I Shall ask her tomorrow 😂

Maybe Steve hadn't cleared the empties from the previous couple of days rather than drinking all of that in one session.

I'm behind but I just wanted to placemark and shout HASTINGS. LIKE THE BATTLE.

As was mentioned on the last thread, the Steph actresses fake Scouse accent is beyond shit and annoying.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD Jed Mercurio, write Steph out.

Who did Kate call by the reservoir and what did she say? Could have just been setting up the first trip to see Steve but reckon there's more to that conversation

Also, Kate dressed like Jo in the first couple of episodes but after the reservoir incident she started dressing very casually. Deliberate or am I over-analysing?!

LOL'd at the comment about assumptions about short hair!

Jo’s good for a 2nd Carer in gardening with all the planting she’s doing...burner phones in Farida’s house, Vella files in Buckells’ car....

Also, how is Steve managing this frequent commute to Liverpool 🤔

The LoD podcast insists everything is intentional - including kates clothes

Did anyone else notice the registration number of the Police Car was BE66 BAI, which is a bit like Begbie? A nod to Kelly’s trainspotting past? (I know she wasn’t begbie)

It's could be him @Blondeshavemorefun but I'm still drawn to Andrea Wise as being dodgy. Particularly with her telling Ted to stop looking for H or it will be the end of him.
