Line of Duty - Series 6

I scored 24/27, but must admit I've been rewatching on iPlayer.
Was confused by the first episode last night, so will need to rewatch.

Oh yes, that Ryan Pilkington is a bent copper now. When will he turn up?

CHIS: Covert Human Intelligence Source
Why does everything now have a long complicated name so it has to be reduced to meaningless letters? Just call them a snout.

The Three Musketeers are all looking and sounding a bit jaded with it all. The job, I mean.
Let’s hope they all get involved with this new case and revert to being the Ted, Steve and Kate we know and love.

Hate to see poor Ted looking so sad.

?

I think a subtitle should appear when they use an acronym. I was distracted by the ‘CHIS’ during the show. ?

I felt so clever when ( after googling!) I realised that CHIS was a ‘snout’... other half not so impressed with my detective work!

I thought it was about time the body in the freezer was resurrected! (excuse the pun).
Don't forget Ryan Pilkington. He was the nasty little scumbag who rode around on a bike in earlier series passing messages and burner phones for the gang. Tried to cut Arnott's finger off. At the end of the last series he had managed to become a recruit for the Police force and was seen in training. He must turn up again somewhere, still working for the gang.

Based on my extensive knowledge of TV detective shows, which makes me practically an expert ?, I think a grass is someone who tells the police about their friends/neighbours' nefarious activities, and a snout is one who is planted in the criminal fraternity and reports back. So a CHIS might be a snout.

It sounds more MIT/AC12/CIO/FLO/though

Ok then, who do we think is up to no good?

I scored 25 out of 27 in the quiz. I'd forgotten all I ever knew about Dryden and I got Ted's wife's name wrong. But I remembered a lot more than I thought I would.

Doesn't question 2 have two correct answers though?

Brilliant start
Trotman was DC Georgia Trotman in series 2 she was thrown out of a 5th floor window.

My dd sent me a LOD acronyms bingo card - for this first episode I scored 2

Oh dear, I only got 22/27
I must have missed a series - who is Trotman? She looks like a midwife!

There are so many acronyms, I’m going to write them down for next week.

No idea yet, but boy, is it good to have it back!

Oh dear, I only got 22/27

CHIS: Covert Human Intelligence Source

So, what happened?

DH thought it was something rude

Is it just a PC word for a grass?

Love how the continuity announcer told us the meaning of the abbreviation...saved me googling it!!

Brilliant. Thanks. 21/27.
Considering my memory these day - I'm pleased with that. Boys' home and depot questions really stumped me.

I got 25 out of 27. The only two that stumped me were the name of the children's home and the name of the Police station! Neither places had registered with me.

I think (but not certain) that they are not showing them all on iPlayer straight away. If I'm correct then anyone who wants to binge will have to wait weeks!

We'll wait till it's all available on iPlayer and watch it straight through - we do that for most series. otherwise I forget half the plot.

I will still read the thread though - it's always interesting to see what others thought and there is rarely enough detail to give away the plot

I scored 22/27.

Quite impressed myself.



Thanks Chardy

Love this series. I’ve set it to record as will be at daughters tonight. Sometimes you need to go back over a scene because you were so flabbergasted whilst you were watching it!
