What would go in the no spoiler one, though?

Good point, trisher. They cold be setting it up for her to leave.

Well it will probably sort out her pension problem ?

Who do you mean by Cassie and her boyfriend calandergirl Cassie s married isn’t she and her husband working away from the area ?

She only met him last series, and I just assumed they weren’t married. I know he got a new job offer, which is why I thought they were planning on buying a property together and moving away, which is why her pension is important, and also why she wants the house issue resolving with her dad.

Or maybe I have got the wrong end of the stick, not unknown!

I wonder whose posh fountain pen it turns out to be? Very difficult to fall on a pen so must be deliberate murder. Last night I did jump at the ending.

I really struggle to concentrate so it is useful to have reminders eg when some people mentioned the dramatic ending I couldn't recall it until more details were given.
I can't imagine that the lead character would die before the final episode.

I don’t think Cassie is married to her current partner is she? He works for a different police force and came in to the series 3 story to help with their investigation which originated in his area, the body was found in Cassie’s area. During series 3 they dated a few times but she ended it because of her mental health issues arising from the serial killer investigation. Right at the end Cassie and Sunny and John were taking flowers to the grave of the victim then at the beginning of this series John was in her house but seemed to go back to his work and they have been discussing buying a property together. Assuming Cassie isn’t dead the ending last night will probably escalate the relationship one way or the other.

I kind of expected something to happen to Cassie last night. In fact I thought she was going to be jumped as she left the station, and stopped to look at her phone. Then I thought there'd be someone in her car - it only showed a close up of her at the wheel, so I wondered if someone was lurking in the back.

So, what a cliffhanger! I really hope this isn't how she leaves the series, that would be awful, but I somehow don't think that's what'll happen - she'll probably go on to solve the case from her hospital bed

Exactly that - I was on the edge of my seat from the moment she left the Forensics building.
Boy did I jump at the moment of impact!

JulieNoted I thought exactly the same as yourself- I did not think Cassie would make it back to the car in one piece. I do hope she did not die last night.

Unnecessary muse there d be no point in commenting on a ‘no comment allowed’ thread

STORY SPOILER ALERT - Brain fog - can someone remind me how the police made the connection between the car with the body in the boot and the man whose has just died in the house (with a body in the freezer)? And how did the police know there had been a body in the boot (it was 30 years ago)? I think I must have dozed off, I just can't remember that bit!

calandergirl and jane thanks for that I d obviously forgotten that part or maybe missed it out
I get it now ....amazing what you miss even when you think you ve watched it all

I keep thinking about the fountain pen, too. It was clearly expensive so which of the rookie group back then came from a monied background?
Maybe Liz?

I did not see that coming for Cassie last night.
When she came out of the forensics Lab the Asian detective was lurking and for a few minutes I thought he was going to go into the forensics and try to get the pen. If he had done that then it would mean he knew about it and it would have incriminated him. I was wrong so now wonder if it was him who ran into Cassies car. Will have to wait until next week now.

They discovered that the man who had hidden the body in a freezer had been stopped and breathalysed on the same night that Matthew Walsh had last been seen alive. And it was in the same vicinity. They then discovered that Robert Fogerty (who'd been the drink driver) was a probationer who'd just passed out at Hendon that same day. They spoke to the PC who'd stopped him, who told them there'd been 4 other newly qualified cops in the car, and had their names. When they discovered they'd all been drinking in the Ifield pub and that one of the women had been sexually assaulted by Robert Fogerty, they started piecing it all together from there.

I’ve been gardening, my brain sometimes thinks of things other than weeds. I suspect Liz. To achieve the rank she has takes huge confidence. She’s emotionally controlled but when she threatened her overbearing bully of a mother, she was frighteningly serious.

Iam64 I'm with you on this. That was exactly my thought process. Everything points to Ram being the murderer, which is precisely why I don't think it's him, because Unforgotten is well known for its twists and turns

That really made me laugh sw!

Ram would be a believable murderer but the other pointer is the way Flakey Fiona was so clear in the memories that pointed to him.
Liz has already covered up for Fiona when a child was killed By her drink driving.
Great series, I hope Cassie is ok

Do we already know why Ram has a very unhappy relationship with his father, and I missed it, or is that still to come out?

Could someone enlighten me please as to why the two women were not kept in the cells overnight for further questioning?

JulieNoted many thanks for that. It does now ring a bell - I was obviously not paying attention!

one of the women had been sexually assaulted by Robert Fogerty
It's probably me who has got hold of the wrong end of the stick, but wasn't it Matthew Walsh who assaulted Fiona?

The entry for the final episode in next week’s Radio Times starts “Despite a tragic turn of events, Sunny and the team ......”. No mention of Cassie, though she appears in the cast list. I wonder ....

I’ve just watched it for the second time, it takes two goes for me to notice everything, and even then......
I have to do this with Line of Duty too. The plots are so complex, but so worth it.

Mokryna - would it be because Cassie didn’t have enough to charge the ACC, and Liz knew it. Or maybe just a plot device
