And broken hand is when he stamps on it when tommy is laying on the field and subtitles say bones crunch 😂

Thank you. Oh, a re-watch? Again? Yes, it's Sunday, there's time.

How do we feel about DSI Phil Crabtree from series 1?

Badge or no badge?

<attempts to attach a piccie -keepingfingerscrossed>

Is there a picture of him with a beard, @AntonDuPig ?

@Emotionalsupportviper

Hmmm... are these beardy enough for you Viper?

Nah - it's a bit "meh" by my (incredibly high) standards. 😄

Thanks anyway, @AntonDuPig .

🤣 <mutters under breath I'll give you high standards>

Okaaaaaay... howzabout this one?

WORSE!!!!!

🙀

I'll quit while I'm ahead, thank you.

He should use that stabby little knife to tidy himself up!

Thanks, all. Got the stab and the hand stamp.

Blondes doesn't do beards

Those two must be related!

Hello! I waited to watch series 3 until it was all on iplayer which I now really regret because I'd have loved to discuss on the threads but my Monday nights are manic.

I have so many thoughts about the whole 3 series but the one that has stayed with me more than anything is that I really really would love to climb Tommy Lee Royce like a tree. Which is disturbing! Thought I might have grown out of it all these years later but he was bloody lovely in that hoody. The look on his face when he smiled at Catherine before he set fire to himself he was so vulnerable despite being a psychopathic rapist and serial killer 😬

Gosh @MeinKraft - you are not alone. I agree about the hoodie. I am really hoping he gets the 007 gig…

In the hoodie and with the short hair to me he looked like James Norton. Until he spoke and then started stabbing people again. Then I was like aha it’s TLR. I thought his haircut was a bit too naice for a prison haircut tbh.

It was cut by another inmate. Professional barbers can end up in prison too.

I just felt it looked like something James Norton might request, rather than TLR. Maybe he really had just matured from his bleached blonde 🤷‍♂️

The look on his face when he smiled at Catherine before he set fire to himself
I couldn't stop thinking about that bit afterwards, how Catherine shared her little anecdote about Gary Gogowski and Tommy smiled.

Now if there's a badge for fancying the hottest homicidal psychopath on TV I'd like to be at the front of the queue.

Your wish is my command @JesusMaryAndJosephAndTheWeeDon

It is really disturbing how many people find TLR attractive - I hope it is because our psyches know that he is really the lovely James Norton who is nothing like TLR.

I fancy James Norton but TLR just made me feel on edge. Which is good! I can fancy a bad boy but not when the bad boy is a rapist.

I don't really fancy him but I think he looks better when he looks rough!
