    Seems like there will be a fourth series.
    AHEAD of the return of BBC police corruption drama Line of Duty later this week, creator Jed Mercurio has revealed that he is now starting to think about the fourth series.

    "I write episode by episode, one series at a time. I’m beginning to think about series four now but I didn't think about it before I’d finished series three," he explained.

    Pretty sure The Beeb renewed it for a third and fourth series after the second series aired.

    Still need to watch last night's episode.

    They featured this on Gogglebox just now. Interesting to see everyone's reaction was just like mine, "great episode when is it on again". Though they did majorly spoil do if anyone is planning on watching both shows they should leave the room for this part of Gogglebox

    Watched it last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Daniel Mays was excellent. It's hard to tell where they are going with the story - a lot hinges on how episode 2 begins.

    Brilliant episode. Nice little twist to the end. I didn't see that coming at all.

    After constantly seeing the promo for series 3 I decided to check this out -just watched series 1,2 and episode 1 from series 3 over the last few days. I would highly recommend this show.

    I bet a lot of people have missed out on this. People are so busy trying to watch everything on Netflix.

    This is top quality.

    After a stellar first episode, the second was dry, a bit boring and a bit confusing.

    I think I need to watch season 2 again. I can't remember who Keeley Hawes character was or what she did.

    She was the officer that moved the bloke that was killed in the ambush
    She was perceived as bullied the victim and turned out to be the opposite
    - I think!

    Confused as well...is Dot in cahoots with Keeley Hawes??he didn't look too happy when she got released though...and is there someone higher up giving them orders?...looks like the little detective guy might be the only "not dirty" copper in the show...

    Do they?..maybe so..can't remember a suggestion of him being a bit shady last season,but maybe there was so much going on with Keeley Hawes that it slipped my notice...anyway,can't wait to see who else turns out to be "in the know"...

    He was more than a bit shady. Dot has been up to his neck in it since the first series. Mind you there is such a long gap between series that you could be forgiven for forgetting. You'd probably need to watch a refresher before the new series.

    Dot is more slippery than a barrel of eels. Fascinating to see how the release of Lindsay Denton changes the dynamic.

    I like good cop shows but I'm finding this a little dreary and incomprehensible

    Why did yer man Dot need to pretend to get beaten by the tactical squad guy Baines in the warehouse?
    Doesn't really make sense and exposes him as if the others believe the other guy he's outed.
    No real need to be seen to "make the arrest" on Baines himself.
    Seems too contrived.

    Denton may have been a bit mad but she's a copper to her fingertips, like Denton and like Denton Dot may yet win the day. That said the real enemy seems to be Gill Biggelow in legal council for AC 12

    Wow. That was superb. Can't wait for the finale next week. This is the best British TV I've seen since Our Friends in The North 20 years ago.

    I have started looking again at the series staring with episode 1. Its very complicated.
    Who sent the mobile to Hari? Dot, was it? What was the significance of that? In episode 2 I think, there seems to be a new plot re L Denton which doesn't seem to have anything to do with Murphy murder. What is all that about? There was no mention of her at all in episodes 1. Very confusing.
    Even though its difficult to make out I thought the scene where they were questioning the suspected paedophile was the best television I have seen in a long time. Superb acting, beautifully nuanced, just brilliant. Adrian Dunbar, and the paedophile himself were absolutely outstanding.

    Denton is an continuing character from the previous season. Her court case was still in progress.
    mobile was a burner phone to keep in touch with the caddy (dot)
