when you’re explaining you’re losing
also when you’re describing the ending to a decade-long saga as “down” you are probably also losing https://t.co/AA0wRXPw6A

When it comes to losing, I have to defer to lifelong expert @peterodwyer1. What a fucking prick. https://t.co/ZoN3EaE9SR

Line of Duty creator hits out at season 6 backlash ‘Thanks for watching’ (Daily Express)

What sort of a car-crash of a website have they got going on at The Daily Express?
Jesus, Mary and Joseph – my eyes ! my eyes ! Exit ! Exit ! Exit !
(and the wee donkey, aye).
it’s gas, my old man says all those nordie sayings, he was tickled pink people thought they were odd
I think line of duty has to add
” the things you see when you forget your gun”
” there’s no one like you since leather arse died”
“Grass doesn’t grow on a busy street but you never see a baldy headed donkey”
” shut your pie hole before a duck goes and lays an egg in it ”
and ” well it’s not hanging from your lower lip or you’d feel the weight of it ”
and so on :)
Married to a Nordie… They’re all off their heads up there. 30 years of life down here and she’s almost normal. Almost. But some serious triage to knock the Julian Simmons/Gillian Porter out of her is needed ever time she goes up for the weekend.
I’m talking the full Minnie and Monica Peters retail experience…
haha brilliant, my two are 55 years down here, most people still need subtitles for my Mum
I love all of these but especially “there’s no one like you since leather arse died.”
Snortle !
The rich ol’ turns of phrase and etymological wonders of English as we speak it here in Hibernia are fascinating. I heard poet Rita Ann Higgins on Tommy Tiernan trot out an old saying i’d completely forgotten about but had heard me Granny utter a few times as a kid:
“Up she flew and the cock flattened her.”
Ah the good of it … :)
Hah, Up she flew….was very common when I was a kid.
As was, “Ah sh*t* mother I can’t dance” !!
oh yeah sh*t mother I can’t dance is a cracker
Haven’t watched it – probably won’t now either as the ending is known.
was it any good then?
The series was absolutely brilliant up until about the last 10 minutes of the last episode. That was a bit of a letdown tbh.
Damn.
Disagree, and we’re in a minority it seems.
The subtle revelation, without the crazy car chases or gunfight, was symbolic of what exists in organisations, institutions and governments the world over; the dumb guy can be the most dangerous, especially when freely allowed to fail upwards. And AC-12 failed to spot that, and knew it (going by the pensive faces in the elevator!). Genius plot ending and message.
Starting watching Series One again for more surveillance on ‘H’ and how he was bedded in.
