relatively sedate episodes, series six burst into life with murders, interrogations and a callback to series one * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES SIX EPISODE TWO – THE PLOT THICKENS, JUST VERY


SLOWLY There's a calmer pace to the series than we've come to expect, but that doesn't mean the antics of Ted, Steve, Kate and co are any less enjoyable * LINE OF DUTY RECAP


SERIES SIX EPISODE ONE – OH AC-12, HOW WE'VE MISSED YOU Hastings, Arnott and Fleming are back with some new faces – and yet more bent coppers – but it's far from happy families for


the anti-corruption trio * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FIVE FINALE – FROM THE SUBLIME TO THE RIDICULOUS There were cheer-inducing revelations – and some nonsensical explanations – in a


finale that put more than one character through the wringer * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FIVE, EPISODE FIVE – MOTHER OF GOD WHAT A BAD DAY There's trouble in AC-12 towers – but who is


the real H? Let's hope the finale gives us the answers we 'definately' crave * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FIVE, EPISODE FOUR – ONE HELL OF A MESS TO CLEAN UP There's


misdirection and shocks galore as the series kicks into punishingly high gear. Is any character truly safe? * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FIVE, EPISODE THREE – ALMOST UNBEARABLY TENSE With


shootings, raids and meltdowns galore, it's all hotting up now – and everyone is in too deep * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FIVE, EPISODE TWO – THE DOUBLE-CROSSES ARE PILING UP So, is


Corbett a rogue cop or a good one? If we believe what he says, Ted Hastings is almost certainly a wrong 'un. It's all enough to make your head spin * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES


FIVE, EPISODE ONE – WHO'S PLAYING THE LONG CON? Whether you saw the twists coming or not, this gripping opener had robbery, blackmail, murder, hijack and so, so much more * LINE OF DUTY

RECAP: SERIES FOUR, EPISODE FIVE – ROZ HUNTLEY, LIFE-RUINER What a shocking and superb episode, which left Ted, Kate and Steve with the deck firmly stacked against them. Please go down


fighting, AC-12! * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FOUR, EPISODE FOUR – TURN THOSE SCREWS, ROZ Line of Duty gets better the longer the interrogation scenes. And after that stone-cold standoff, it


looks like it might finally be game over for AC-12 * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FOUR, EPISODE THREE – STEP AWAY FROM THE LIFT! How does Jed Mercurio do it? He always manages to pump the


plot full of shocking twists to keep us on our toes. But the truth about Balaclava Man can't be as clear-cut as it seems * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES FOUR, EPISODE TWO – WHO IS THE REAL


BALACLAVA MAN? Despite a disastrous 13/30 switcheroo and a typically tense interrogation scene, Roz Huntley seems to be running rings around AC-12. But what actually happened on her

wrong has been turned on its head * LINE OF DUTY RECAP: SERIES THREE FINALE – URGENT EXIT REQUIRED! Thank you Jed Mercurio: what an incredibly tense and ludicrously over-the-top finale.
