It's all about opinions and I think a series about an unconvincing priest wearing ancient headwear who solves the local crimes is daft.
Re your other points, my wife is Northern Irish so I'm using her opinions about the expressions used and I'm still not convinced that all those police acronyms are used on a daily basis as a matter of course.
For you Line of Duty fans there's a series starting on BBC 2 at 9pm tonight called Bent Coppers - Crossing The Line Of Duty. Later episodes deal with the setting up of AC-10.
If you didn't know about it, I'm happy to be your chis.
Well Jimmy Nesbitt kept THAT quiet
And that's all I'm saying
I love it personally. Yes it has cliches and catchphrases, and yes it is unbelievable in parts, but it is a great watch. I love the twists, and how some seemingly prominent characters are suddenly killed off. My favourite scenes are the interviews, especially when they come up with a twist at the end. "Sit down fella"
Years ago, but I'm not sure if still, that was the motto of the Lancashire constabulary training school at it was over the main gates. So everyone entering read it. It eluded to the principle that good police work entails taking your time getting everything right so that when you do catch your villain he is properly caught and doesn't get away.
Hence the name of the series which was set in that area.
It's highly unlikely that X is dead so that means another key witness has been shot and fall-out from that will be interesting.
Now we're sucking diesel fellas
The episodes are getting better. Last night's was gripping.
Several threads set up for next series, assuming it comes. I would say interesting rather than explosive.
What a waste of an hour. Getting flack all over media. As someone else said no way is a Brummie the mastermind.
As much as I love Line of Duty, I have to admit that the last episode was anti-climactic to say the least.
Yes very disappointing ending to a very good series, this seems to keep happening a lot , like the writers have no clue how to finish it
The last episode of the series was a damp squid.
Such an anti climax.
This series seemed the right time to bring the whole thing to a close, so assuming that there's more, just seems to be stretching the story a bit too far.
Think we've been spoiled with previous endings (Dot's death) but last night was a realistic ending for show about police corruption while leaving room for another series if the demand is there.
The bad guys usually get away with it unless their usefulness as an idiot has run out and anyone chasing an exciting conspiracy usually finds the chase more exciting than the outcome - it's as realistic as long, dry interrogation scenes or constant use of acronyms.
Well what a let down , this made me chuckle:
