Line of Duty Season 6 Episode 4 Recap
The main cast of the series includes Kelly Macdonald, Martin Compston, Vicky McClure, and Adrian Dunbar. Episode 4 began with the merging of AC-12, AC-3, and AC-9 in one unit. The merging is done by Wise, whose intentions are to reduce the staff by 90%. He also plans to retire. On the other hand, Lomax and Fleming interview one of the culprits of betting shop robbers. They are in search of more clues about the firearm used in Vella’s murder. Forensics investigate more at Jatri’s flat, where Davidson watches this from a distance and texts “I am finished” to an unknown recipient. Arnott meets Rogerson for her transfer. Arnott also deletes various emails from Occupational Health. He also recognizes the voice of jailed solicitor, whose name is Jimmy Bakewell, on a recording that was obtained from Vella’s office. Arnott and Bishop interview Jimmy who is afraid to speak out. So they decide to shift him to secure custody. The team, while shifting him, is attacked by the OCG. Davidson’s true color emerges, and her fingerprints are obtained from Jatri’s house. But along with Davidson, the police also recover DNA, and that person is expected to be related to Davidson.
