    Agreed but there were a lot of other howlers and I now realise my expectations have self-lowered!

    How can that young detective not fail to link the fact that he gave his password to a colleague on the day his login was used to search sensitive files?

    That was the bit that utterly did it for me – so unbelievable that he would even give his password to someone else (especially when they are in the jobs they are in). And since when do you need someone’s current password to change it to a new one?

    Same. There’s no way we’d still be watching it otherwise!

    More to the point, why did no-one think to compare the time that the file was downloaded using his password with the log of the access control system that they’re never done swiping themselves in and out on?

    Those gates were stuck open when he took his flouce, so it’s clearly not that reliable!

    And since when do you need someone’s current password to change it to a new one?

    If she’d have changed it for him, how could he then have logged in? Ridiculous.

    I can’t understand why the main Doris didn’t just go to A&E to get her arm sorted. It’s not like the nurses would have been questioning where she got the injury and reported back their suspicions to the police.

    Ayone else laugh when she looked and saw her arm was gawn??!
    Not how a serious drama should make one react 😆

    Its descended into complete nonsense, but enjoyable nonsense for all that.

    i’m looking forward to the bit in next weeks episode where the spaceship lands, and the aliens enter the fray 😀

    I’m looking forward to when Voldemort gives her a new silver hand and when Jesus tells Steve to throw away his crutches and walk.

    It’s pretty shit but we just watch because they manage to create suspense.

    Watched some scandi stuff on BBC on Saturday night and it was on another level. much better

    ‘m looking forward to the bit in next weeks episode where the spaceship lands, and the aliens enter the fray

    I think you may be confusing it with Fargo. 🙂

    This one will conclude with the resurrected Caddy storming AC12 carrying ACC Hilton’s head in a bucket.

    The ‘other crimes in previous series involving balaclavas and deep freezes’ bit seems a tad forced.

    Why do Kate and Arnott have to meet in that dodgy underpass when she seems to make it into the office at least 3 times an episode? She even brought Arnott a curry the other week.

    Does this programme get any better? We watched the first series over the last few nights and it just seems a very formulaic story, over-reliant on Deus ex machina and spoiled by too many poorly recited lines. And someone ought to tell the director that shaky camera work and random zoom doesn’t make something “gritty”. It looks like the cameraman’s last job was filming two scallys fighting on the back of the night bus. Vertically.

    I guess we may have been spoiled by binge-watching Luther a couple of weeks ago.

    Ah, but at least my suspension of disbelief was willing during Luther.

    At least they could act in Luther.

    Reminds me – Not heard much talk of Guerrilla. Anyone watching it?

    Just for the record; Ifield* deserved his demise as he mutilated his mum’s twanny in the first series of Bodies. Jed Mercurio’s finest work.

    It’s, umm, okaaaaay. Only caught the first two and will watch a bit more. If you like your stereotypes, then you’ll love it. 🙂

    Same here – on series link, but nothing compelling me to start watching the rest.

    Saw the trailer for E6 – inc Ted discharging his firearm in an office!

    Didn’t Kate and Steve meet in the underpass only when she was undercover?

    Flying Ox – shame if S4 has killed it for you, S1-3 were several levels above IMO.

    Que?? Sounding as though peeps are bored with LoD, just giving a heads up that there’s some good telly they may be missing. 🙂

    Which reminds me, Gregory Fitoussi in Spin (formerly Pierre in Spiral) is looking seriously hot since he lost his razor. 😀

    A lot of the Scandinavian stuff I’ve seen is bobbins. Sure, Killing, Bridge, Borgen – all excellent but there’s a lot of dross been pumped out on the coat-tails of the early flag-bearers.

    DebZ, try Born to Kill – started on C4 Sunday night (I think). First one seemed nicely foreboding.

    Agree with

    “ridiculous unrealistic”

    but not necessarily with

    “toss.”

    I have watched far, far worse.

    But it is about as realistic as the Marvel shows.

    That’s for sure – I have just watched the first 2 episodes of The Legacy season 3, but I’m not sure I’ll bother continuing. On the other hand I have enjoyed Midnight Sun, but more for the amazing northern Sweden scenery than for the plot.

    This series of lod has been entertaining but has far too many plot holes, it appears the script was rushed and not checked properly.

    Just watched series 1 on Netflix and it is so so much better.

    Going to watch series 2 next, we started lod on series 3 last year.

    Despite the nonsense it is still entertaining.

    Agreed on Midnight Sun Doc. I’ve enjoyed that.

    I’ve never watched it before but at the in laws, managed 30 mins, decided to force out a poo instead.

    I must say its crap (Lod not the poo) unnecessarily drab and weary, not to mention a storyline that seems ridiculously unbelievable and a poor understanding of what whole genome sequencing is.

    Have to ask why the crims would bother to make Hilton’s death suicide.

    Well I enjoyed it, and not just because it has Vicky McClure in it.

    You do know it’s not a documentary?

    In thought it was an OK ending; not very realistic I grant, but entertaining.
