Aye, she stayed back to clear Steve last series anarl, clearly a plant all along!

The writing and production is such a cut above, and everything is planned way way back. Not since The Shield have I seen things used that seemed unimportant series back.

Hastings interviewing the Strike Team would be a sight to behold, they'd run rings around Steve and Kate like :lol:
 
Reet, just caught up with two episodes a day. I have spotted right at the start what is definitely an important clue. When the head girl in gegs first rings Thandie she does it on Thandie's home phone. The writer flags to us three times it's the home phone, so it's important. And yet when Thandie is in her car and ringing the husband, she uses her mobile. Why didn't gegs girl ring her on her mobile? Is it a secret mobile eh? Eh?

Dinnar who did it tho but.

Do you give your personal mobile number to all of your colleagues? Slightly surprised that she may not have a work mobile though, given that I do.

She does have a work mobile, she has to surrender it later in the series. So they don't ring her on her work mobile at the start - why?
 
Balaclava man is the high ranking copper that tried to bed huntley
He's a big bloke, I said the the other week that the husband repeatedly ringing his brief was a bit suss. Then we see the brief and he's a right unit.

The minute the husband's brief walked into AC-12 you could see his build was exact.

As for that interview! Fuck me! :eek: Intense.

Can't believe the Indian lass is f***ing them ower like.
:D
He's there lad. I'm not so sure about it now though as you're a bit of a divvy.

Anyone else find themselves proper hating the lass with glegs that works with Huntley?
I'm not sure, I'd quite like to rattle her.

Yes. But largely because she has to be 17. Somewhere's missing a head girl.
Aw bollocks.

Thought the interview scene was good until she suddenly turned the tables. I'm not sure that would be realistic. The writing seemed to get a bit lazy at that point 'for the benefit of the tape borne detectives are looking uneasy' just seemed poor compared to the normal. I'm a fan of the series as a whole but think it's on the slide.
I was on the edge of me seat expecting her to reveal her Dawn of the Dead mitt.

Watched all 4 episodes today, f***ing mint - Thandie Newton is a fabulous actress, just waiting on her to end up in hospital because of that claw mark on her arm, I'm also interested as to how she overpowered the forensics guy who was just about to chop her up :neutral:.
To be honest, if someone was about to chop me up with an electric saw I reckon I'd get a bit fighty.
 
I really like the episode by episode review that The Guardian does for this, The Last Kingdom and the usual Scandi-dramas. I still have to say I have a problem with the character of Huntley lacking any kind of emotion, or empathy. She's a bit one dimensional. I don't mind characters being out and out bad uns - but she's a bit too 'frozen' for me. Possibly Thandie Newton's acting style not doing it for me. I miss Lindsay Denton!
The Guardian reviews of Game of Thrones and Westworld were also excellent.

Whey they're well short now like!
That would be a helluva cure for nose picking.

I'm nee doctor but I assumed that she'd blocked the chainsaw with it. I'm nee lumberjack either.
That's okay.
