So rotten Ryan and Jimmy Nesbitt-in-a-Just-For-Men-advert have joined Line Of Duty’s ever-growing list of casualties – killed in a moonlit lorry park and a labyrinthine Spanish villa respectively.
Acting DSU Joanne Davidson is languishing in a cell at HMP Brentiss, with scowling warders waiting for the security cameras to mysteriously malfunction so they can duff her up (or worse).
Meanwhile, anti-corruption unit AC-12 is falling apart at the lanyard-clad seams. Supt Ted Hastings is going all wibbly in the glass lift. DI Steve Arnott looks increasingly like a confused teddy bear in a waistcoat. DI Kate Fleming’s cheekbones are getting sharper by the minute with the stress of it all. Frankly, 15m frazzled viewers feel her pain.
Played by Brian McCardle, Hunter was the leader of the Organised Crime Syndicate (OCG). He was a paedophile who groomed DI Matthew Cottan (Craig Parkinson) to be his man on the inside within AC-12.
In the show, DI Steve Arnott (Martin Compston) states that the DNA match runs of homozygosity . The definition of this is: “The state of possessing two identical forms of a particular gene, one inherited from each parent.”

While the episode didn’t actually state how Joanne is related to Tommy, a post it note on the wall at AC-12 reveals that she is the result of incest.

I was not, apparently, the only one to faff about playing and pausing and pausing and playing – too far, go back, now a millisecond forward - to freeze the final frame of this week’s Line Of Duty.
I thought I was. I thought I was the only one who was that clever, until a glance at social media revealed that the whole nation was pausing, rewinding, forwarding and freezing at a minute to 10pm last Sunday night.
We all had to know. Whose photo was shown in the file on Ted’s desk? Whose DNA matched Jo ‘expressionless voice’ Davidson’s on the police database? Did we find out?
