They bigged the episode up so much but it wasn't really that great for all the promo but I still enjoyed it

That was terrible

First half hour - excellent.

Post-H discovery - ****e.

They CANNOT leave it like that. No way.

Apparently it was done as such as to “reflect current society” aka “corruption disguised as blundering” and giving big jobs to your mates when you’re running the show etc etc.

Yeah great Jed but WHERES the payoff??

Well that ending was underwhelming. :bored:

I kind of like that actually

That makes sense, I thought the ending was fitting, and the door is open for some kind of follow up series

13m people watched with 56% of viewers

I’m confused because Buckells was shaking like mad when Jimmy was killed in a cell. Surely H wouldn’t be shaking like that :laugh:

Is it over then idgi

I watched it and just thought

"oh its that desperately dull character Buckles

Did Jed phone this ep in or what?"

I took it to mean H wasn't the huge criminal mastermind everyone assumed, he was the cowardly messenger for everyone else to get away with their misdeeds through him and he was rewarded with the career he didn't deserve.

Also that people like Osbourne wouldn't leave himself in situations like Buckells where he's that easily taken down.

I took it that they're all corrupt in their own ways. Carmichael was never going to investigate the top people because she's too concerned with her own career, probably the same with Andrea Wise turning a blind eye and getting rid of the Yusef from EE guy is an easy cop out etc. Showing corruption is always there you're never going to cut it all away because selfish people are selfish people.

It will be interesting to see the direction the show would take if it were to move forward. Would Carmichael pursue Ted for what he confessed should his appeal against his retirement be successful?

Feeling lost without this on. :sad:
