Denton's voice in Episode 5 of Series 2 is fucking unbearable.

Binged the first 2 series on Netflix but am struggling with the weekly watch in series 3 so going to let the series run then watch as a whole.

God damn Netflix has ruined my ability to concentrate on old fashioned once a week stuff !!

Brilliant again last week. Just caught up now.

The series finale is a 90 minute special apparently.

90 minutes finale? Brilliant hopefully it will all come together in the end. I just get the feeling the caddy will be the main part of it now.

Epsiode 3 spoiler -

Spoiler

I think the whole Dot Cottan thing is getting a little bit much now, him being on the scene with hari and in handcuffs surely would have raised some suspicion. Then the AC-12 office all cheering and slapping him on the back as a hero was all a bit..meh. It really is a good show though and I suspect Denton being released will see her bring the caddy down.

Liverpool beat Dortmund and The Caddy gets his cumuppence makes for a good Thursday!

Cotton told Hari he was re examining an old crime scene but he told the police he had spotted him and followed him so can't see him say he just happened to be there as an excuse. think Cotton will say Hari deliberately showed himself to entice him into the building where he had the noose all set up to kill him, the CTV evidence won't back that up though so maybe hes got another excuse. he's a glever git Cotton

I was surprised Cotton didn't makes sure Hari's fingerprints where on the handcuffs, I imagine he will be asked to hand over his handicuffs as evidence. so I don't know how Hari is supposed to have cuffed him when his fingerprints and DNA are not on the cuffs. that's going to take some explaining.
Brilliant series,First thought Cotton was guilty of not investigating all the child abuse. looks like he was in on it now, burning the list, making sure Waldren never mentioned any Coppers names involved in the child abuse, all the phone calls at the end off his m8s on that list I assume.
I remember the last series mentioned this Caddy fella but not sure if we knew he he was at the end of the last episode,they tried to say it was the senior copper who was kicked out of the police at then end of the last series for dressing up in golf gear having it off thought that was all rubbish to throw them off the scent. I wouldn't be surprised if this Caddy fella does all the running round organizing the sick child abuse partys.

I'm sure Dot Cottan is the Caddy!! At the end of season 1 when Dot went in the back of the prison van with Tommy Hunter he mentioned it i'm sure.

Only from WIKI but....DS Cottan, is Tommy's inside man (having been recruited as a teenager when he caddied for Tommy at a local golf club).

I also think the Police would have investigated Tommy Hunters old golf club and found out who the previous Caddys were there.

That adds up Pete. I missed that, was thinking it was just a code word rather than a real caddy

so it's all been covered up and the investigation stopped in it's tracks, am going to have to get another sky+ box, keep on deleting all these episodes from brilliant series like this just to make space.

That scene between Hastings and Denton when she was demanding an apology from him, was just class. You get the impression he would have rather eat his razor then say sorry.

Brilliant series and not a criticism but it's getting harder every week to work out whose the baddy and the goody. you think one persons and out of the story line locked up in prison and up they pop up again as the goody

3 story lines which am sure are all connected in this series and little vital important clues in episodes in series 1+2 that you need to know to solve the clues in this series. the standard of writing is superb.
This phone evidence she claims she has on Steve seems to backed up by the fact she video taped the perv prisoner officer who offered her a £10 for sex. so if she did have sex with Steve she would have used it as evidence in her trial,so just what does she has on Steve if they didn't have sex. he must have said something that will drop him right in it. ive no idea
BBC has excelled this year, Happy Valley brilliant now Line of Duty and Peaky blinders starts in a few weeks as well.

I didn't realise that until i saw him talking on BBC news just before the Scottish referendum,he was in the leave camp.

Big Celtic fan as well.

Keeley Hawes is fantastic in this,so many storylines going on.

Fantastic vieweing.

Compston was brilliant portraying Paul Ferris a notorious Glasgow gangster. in The Wee man 3 years ago.
Everyone believed it was a done deal that Ferris would be played by Robert Caryle. never got off the ground for years till Compston took the part. perfect for the part. cold. calculating and ruthless.
Enjoyed the movie and found it very interesting. took on the toughest crime Barron of Glasgow and came out on top. as good as admits to a lot of officially unsolved attacks without actually saying he did it.

I just watched season one again - mentioned a couple of times in the final episode that Cottam was his caddy - 'the best caddy I ever had' he says in the back of the van.

I'd forgotten how good season one was. It had become overshadowed by Keeley Hawkes in season two. I was expecting Tony Gates to pull out a staff every so often - he's Morgan in Walking Dead.

I still think AC-12 will eventually do a trace on Tommy Hunters past and find out which Golf courses he used to frequent which will in turn lead them to the Caddy

Maybe not like but its just a thought

Didn't see series 1 or 2, but me & the Mrs are enjoying this series 3 all the same. I guess there's a lot of background we're missing, but it's cleverly enough done so that it works as a brilliant stand alone drama. It's good fun filling in the gaps as well, like being amateur detectives ourselves trying to work out what must've gone on before and how it all hangs together. Crackin stuff.

Whatever this Caddy fellas done wrong though, he did it before he joined the police force and it must be bad, he casually mentioned he was only a kid when they forced him to join the police force to do there dirty work inside. Cotton was very concerned if Waldron had mentioned the names of any coppers involved in the child abuse. whether Cotton was involved who knows yet.got a feeling he was. tune in for a completely different theory on Friday after watching the next episode .

Good to know Timbo. There was a short recap program on catch up that we watched before we started on S3, so we had just enough background. But its clever the way they've done it. Some fantastic scenes with Keeley Hawes in the last one.
