Well, this one certainly kicked up a bit of a fuss, didn't it?

After spending the last ten years wondering who in the hell was the person (by the name of "H") behind all of the various plots we'd seen unfold over the course of six edge-of-your-seat seasons of Line of Duty goodness, it was revealed this year that none other than DS Ian Buckells was the man pulling the strings the whole time.

Understandably, this twist had just about every avid Duty devotee losing their damn minds, wondering what in God's name the showrunners were thinking in ending the whole series with the bombshell that a complete fool was actually playing us and the rest of the cast all along.

Fans were so p*ssed about the lacklustre reveal that some even went to the extent of thinking up barmy theories as to how this was actually another red herring designed to keep us engaged should another season be brought about.

Whether you choose to believe Buckells is in fact the elusive fourth corrupt police officer or not, however, there's no questioning that, if this is indeed the definitive end, Line of Duty royally crapped the bed with this surprise.
