Has Stephen Graham ever played a good Samaritan ? Or does he just play baddies.
As his character gave the nod for the police woman to be eliminated, why is there speculation that he may still be a good cop?
He played the detective superintendent in charge of the case in Little Boy Blue, about the murder of Rhys Jones, but that's the only good guy role I can personally think of.
Just watched first episode of series 5 and read this thread. I've forgotten so much from the previous series. Have I got time for a binge-watch before episode 2?

You could argue he gave them the nod to take her away, not kill her. Has he physically taken part in any illegal activity? You didn’t see him take gear, he wasn’t at the the hijacking and he drove off when they did the drug deals.

6x1hr episodes in series 4.
Both our answers are correct, depending on if “previous series” was singular or plural

Was thinking the same and think that will be revisited.
He also took out a 'rival gang' where it could be said he was doing his police duty.

As a compromise, just watch the last episode of series 4.
Hastings looks shifty. Anyone else get the feeling the woman who he sort of had a fling with who reappeared in this episode is dodgy. Would explain Hastings look at the end because it's too obvious (and stupid) if it's him.
My Mrs pointed out that when Hastings was in his hotel room after meeting his wife, his laptop was open and the screen looked very much like the screen on which John Corbett spoke to the head of the OCG
I swore at the TV at the end of the episode because I was so angry that it finished! A whole week to wait for the next. Has any other program spurned so much debate as LOD? It's not Hastings by the way.

I binge-watched series 4 as a refresher (I originally watched it on a flight so not ideal).
I've wondered why they only look at H as a surname and not a first name. I've known a couple of people known as Aitch, one Harry and one Howard.
H could also mean something else. If you were a corrupt cop at the top end of a major crime organisation would you really want to drop a hint to your name.

Definitely the writers reeling people in with that. Hastings is a red herring, LOD is never that obvious in its characters guilt. I’m still unsure about Stephen Graham’s character, the whole ‘are you with me or not mate’act is hard to gauge.

technically you’ve got time to watch it all 4 times over
He also took out a 'rival gang' where it could be said he was doing his police duty.
(Did that and it was a pretty helpful recap...)
Surely time for plenty more twists & turns.
It's not Hastings by the way.
