Superbly written, acted and produced...

Best drama in yonks, and that's in a golden age of drama..

Martin Freeman just acts his arse off..
 
Isn't it all a bit "samey" Bryn?

Yet another "line of duty"?
ITV have poached that Vicky Mclure for something very similar.

Can't we have an original drama based on something like a high quality garage door salesman?
 
I'm enjoying it, although BBC Breakfast spoilt it a bit by showing a trailer for the last episode tonight in which Martin Freeman is shown driving his car solo and talking to his female sidekick on the phone. So he obviously didn't suffer any ill effects from his 'chat' with the female drug dealer and her heavies. Yesterday finished with him being driven there with four heavies in attendance.

Great acting all round though, top notch.
 
Sorry, not bothered. I barely sit down and watch TV, dont know why I pay a licence to be honest.
Netflix and YouTube, are more likely our go to's.
I have completely lost interest in the TV since lockdown started. It's all the same, just variations on a theme. I know I'm a miserable t**t.👍

I'm more outdoorsy especially when weather gets better.
Spend all day in a warehouse so I'm danned if I'm going to sit and watch repetitive and samey TV shows!!!

But Dicko...The Responder isn't samey...it's about a Scouser cop with mental issues, a troubled home life and is caught up in drugs shenanigans....ooh.. OK.

Loved the whole thing though, in reality.

Have never watched Line of Duty..
 
Finished it earlier. I see why people say it’s a bit samey, but I like that kinda stuff so enjoyed it 👍

Well worth investing some time in Line of Duty from the beginning. Line most series, it gets a bit weaker as it goes on, but very good. Set the standard for police dramas
