If there are any script writers, producers, directors out there who want to know how to make a t.v. Series that is thoughrouly enthralling , riveting , captivating and simply sensational, just watch Line Of Duty!! Simply wonderful.

Outrageously good
I'm generally a pretty chill person but this episode had me screaming at the tv by the end. To tell a smart and engaging story like this with interweaving plotlines and threads unfolding over many years while still maintaining genuinely thrilling action from episode to episode is incredible.

Diesel sucked dry!
Talk about intense, this rollercoaster series just went up another notch, how on Earth have they maintained this standard for a three episode run, this once again, was exceptional.
The face from the past, that was unexpected, and proved to be an irresistible twist, and by the end of the episode I was absolutely exhausted, fatigued mentally and physically, absolutely outrageous drama, you think you can breathe easily, and then you're given...
....That ending, when I thought it couldn't get any more intense, any more dramatic, they give us THAT ending, my heart was in my mouth.
Outrageous, everything is falling apart. 10/10.

Wow! This episode is a total belter. On the edge of my seat and you will be too!
Lots of details, names and links to series 1&3 so really listen and I would recommend watching more than once!

Fantastic but I hate waiting a week
Oh my, ending on a cliffhanger like that should be a crime. Ok, Line of Duty is as mad as a box of frogs but it's a very well built box with very talented frogs.

Can't Wait for next episode
This episode is even better than the previous one. The thrill was top notch and the ending... Mother of God! Bring the best one nowww.
Fastest hour of the week.
Season 6 is delivering in spades. Each episode just ratchets up the tension and offers no end of plausible suspects/theories. The links with prior series's are genius. Life will be so dull in two weeks time. Please let there be a season 7.

Unbelievable cliffhanger!!!!!
This season is fantastic!!! Watching in the US and it's so hard to wait a week between episodes!! Episodes 4 and 5 have been among the best in the entire series!!
Gunfight at ok diner
Another cliffhanger with intense loud music at the end to add to the suspense.
Another strong episode after a dull start to the series.
Perhaps the script benefitted from the Covid break in filming.
Only a 9 though as I still miss the scenes from the first series of seeing the Wmpte buses going down Broad St. In Birmingham.
Belfast does look nice but it's not the west midlands.

Sublime to ridiculous..but still entertaining
Is this the beginning of the end for this great show?
Just short of 30 minutes in yet another previously great TV show starts to show signs of being infected by the woke brigade that is pervading society today.
I genuinely hope that this is just a weak story arc that is easily forgotten but this could be it for Line of Duty - such a shame.
I won't spoil it but the script will have you rolling your eyes.

Engrossing episode
Pilkington is watched closely by AC12 and Fleming.
There is strong tension and suspense developed by scenes involving Davidson, Pilkington, and Fleming. This makes you want to find out what happens next. Also, certain characters are reintroduced to increase the level of antagonism and oppression towards the main protagonists. All of the above comes with certain plot contrivances that help bring about the most dramatic moments, but if you can suspend the disbelief it makes for great entertainment.
The overarching plot relating to the larger conspiracy comes into sharp focus in this one and the writer links this very well to the case of Gail Vella and the involvement of Davidson.
Themes of police corruption are laid on thick as always, adding the Lawrence case to other real life inspirations of high profile cases like Yewtree, but they are important topics to be tackled by the writer so credit to him for doing so. Hopefully viewers can tell fact from fiction an do their own research on real life events.
Kelly McDonald is on good form again, particularly with her expressions and mannerisms. She only has to look at people in certain ways and it says everything you need to know.
For me it's a an 8.5/10, but I round upwards.

More casual racism from the wokist bbc
Disappointing to see another good show fall victim to the social justice mob because of course we couldn't have a TV show about police corruption without including "systemic racism"...
The bigotry of low expectations has neve been more glaringly obvious.

Bit like the season 8 of GOT
Katie character and motivations has became unbelievable in this episode, creating tensions for no reason. Plots pretty thin, beginning of the end i fear.
