Line Of Duty Finale

[thesshhh]

A massive disappointment....don’t you think?

[aelmpvw]

yes Tilly, he killed at least two people to my knowledge

[Tilly2]

Thanks, Ael.

[aelmpvw]

he's been in it from series one where he was a young scallywag on a bike delivering messages/drugs for criminals

[ichkeria]

In the previous episode Pilkington proudly announces that he’s “got an interview” and you think “oh oh...”
The scene where Bill Gigolo is stabbed in the ladies reminded me of The Omen for some reason :-)

[Ken4155]

Young Pilkington was in the very first series, riding around on his bike handing out 'burner' phones. cheeky little 'B', he was then and no surprise to see him pop up again in series 5. The fact he's just joined the force gives some sort of hint as to Mercurio's thinking as regards his plans for series.

[aelmpvw]

i like the spoonerism ich :-)

[Ken4155]

^
Should read "plans for series 6.

[ichkeria]

Does the morse code thing get shown in the original or was that something added later?
Not H but 4: or maybe 8 which should keep us all going for a while ;-)

[ichkeria]

Actually if it’s morse it’s just 4 of course, but why not just 4 taps for 4? Morse code an overembellishment surely?

[Ken4155]

Dot's hand may well have been twitching in the original scene as he lay dying. No doubt Mercurio then rewrote the Morse Code element into his death scene.

[Tilly2]

I am still unsure as to how Kate and Steve knew that Gill Whatsit was a bad'un.

[Tilly2]

It's not that I'm thick. I have hearing difficulties and find it hard to keep up with some of the dialogue. I know they went to see Corbett's wife again. What did she tell them?

[ichkeria]

They had a tape of her interviewing Corbett.

[ichkeria]

Bill G - sorry Jill B had been to their house.

[Tilly2]

Thanks for that. :-)

[shoota]

Didn't watch it, what was it all about?

[ichkeria]

A police anti corruption unit: one of an extraordinary number it would seem given they’re AC 12!

Tho I’ve only seen one of the 5 series so I’m not the best qualified to answer.

[jno]

have you got subtitles you could switch on, Tilly? They make my viewing very much easier

[Tilly2]

Yes, Jno, but Mr T finds them distracting. :-(

[chrissa1]

Well, poor him Tilly. I always have to have the subtitles on but I live alone. That’s not fair on you though.
