Do you not think she's going to be involved in the whole plot?
Was giving a close up of Hilton's combination on the safe of any significance? 4752 I think

I was surprised when I saw Steve Arnott, whatever his real name is, on Soccer AM yesterday.

He's a proper sounding Jock McJockface. Didn't expect that, but i did explain why I find his voice slightly strange.

I REALLY dislike Ros, almost as much as that slimy lady DC in her team. Oh, and the ACC. Git.

Feels like there is a lot to wrap up in the one episode left.
No way they're finishing this one up in one more hour!

The final episode will have to go at some pace, that was intense!

It bothered me that Kate didn't arrest Roz when she turned up at the house. Weren't they ordered to arrest both of them? Plus, the man was arrested for murder, shouldn't his belongings be immediately seized and house searched? She did the framing with the hairbrush AFTER the arrest. I'm assuming that's Leonie Collersdale's brush.

Hilton throwing those accusations at Hastings is very thin given he himself was a direct superior to Cotton in series 1. Bringing that to light will also shine the torch on himself.

Now I'm trying to recall if Tommy died or escaped when Denton was introduced to the series in series 2.

When Kate was trying to get information from Cottan (on the memory stick playback) I thought he said "Hilton" when she asked who the top dog was.

I have a suspicion that the lawyer (Patrick Baladi) has more to do with this than meets the eye.

This actor often plays outwardly respectable, two faced baddies, just saying............?

I think the "Ironside" dig will make Steve determined to try and find some evidence that he is somehow involved with setting up Michael.

So presumably the lawyer is humping Roz then and they are covering for each other/trying to frame the husband too?

How many have a surname beginning with H then?

Huntley
Hastings
Hilton

Missed any?

As mentioned there is so much to tie up in the last episode! For those of you who didn't know Martin Compston was Scottish check out a film called 'Sweet Sixteen' it's a great film.

Its going to be a rush job in the final episode like it has been in the past.

Old Jamie not saying he had given his password to Maneet was a bit stupid.

Beginning to think the only thing they will resolve this series is the release of Michael Farmer and Hana.

Possibly Huntley too, but the failure to secure the Huntley home at the time of his arrest. Basics, crap. But then it's drama so meh.

On a side note, do ACCs still get chauffeured around in S-Class mercs?

Agree. Seemed a bit odd that.

Tommy was the person whacked at the start of series 2 in the road block, he turned informant....

Loving the series 1 reference and how it all ties together.

Copper with an H clearly has to be Hilton he is bent with capital B.

This does not need to be finished by next week as it was confirmed after the 3rd series, 2 more had been commissioned.

He is stupid, would he want to admit to it as well.

It's on Netflix so I'll rewatch some of it. I guess Tommy could still be involved in the criminal activities of some coppers.

If you have a murder to cover up I guess that'll motivate you out of hospital. She went home after a brief meeting with Jodie, although yes it is surprising how quick she's up and about after that operation.

But surely that would give her power over him, not the other way round?
