In a further attempt to protect Malhotra, she contacts the organised crime group. Corbett accuses her of infiltration and she is killed. AC-12 discover that the undercover officer (UCO) is DS John Corbett and not, as originally assumed, Lisa McQueen.

Corbett tips Arnott off about a larger-scale raid on the Eastfield police depot and states that a corrupt senior police officer will be there. Arnott is drawn away from the raid by a false ‘Status Zero’ call. Corbett shoots the senior police officer, who arrives with tracker information, and is revealed to be DCS Hargreaves.

Corbett reveals the location of a meeting between the OCG and "H" and then escapes. AC-12 and the Cybercrime unit impersonate "H" and make contact with the OCG via a laptop.

"The Intrigue"
Sue Tully5 May 2019 (2019-05-05)12.69

Carmichael and her team continue to interview Hastings. They question him about the £50,000 in banknotes they found in his hotel room. Gill Biggeloe, who sits in on the interview, identifies errors in the police search procedure of Hastings's hotel room. This leads Carmichael's team to interrogate Hastings's communications data for further evidence. Meanwhile, Fleming and Arnott revisit Corbett's widow and DSU Powell. They discover that Biggeloe was involved in selecting Corbett for Operation Pear Tree, and specifically identified Hastings as someone to pursue. Fleming and Arnott present their findings to Hastings. Biggeloe was recruited by the OCG while she was working as a defence solicitor. She texts the OCG for her escape but to no avail. One of Carmichael's team, PS Tina Tranter, attempts to stab Biggeloe but is shot by Arnott.

The epilogue reveals that Operation Pear Tree is now officially closed. Fleming received a commendation for her investigation into Pear Tree. Arnott was commended alongside her after an independent panel cleared him in shooting Tranter. McQueen received immunity in exchange for providing information about the OCG, and now volunteers as a youth worker. Ryan Pilkington is now a student police officer. Biggeloe received immunity and a new identity. Hastings received a final written warning, but continues to lead AC-12. Moffatt, standing trial, claims that the £50,000 found in Hastings's hotel room is only half of the sum that was handed to him. The remaining £50,000 is never found, but Hastings is seen approaching Corbett's widow with an envelope.

Sport Relief special

A special mini-episode was produced in support of Sport Relief in 2020. [5] The special was promoted as a "deleted scene" from the fifth series and starred Compston, McClure, and Dunbar along with Jason Isaacs as DC Taylor and Lee Mack as David Rickman. [6] [7] It was written by the Dawson Brothers [8] and aired on BBC One on 13 March 2020. [9] The plot includes elements of the main programme, but the events of the supplemental episode do not fall within the continuity of Line of Duty.

Arnott, Fleming, and Hastings, believing they finally know who "H" is, interview DC Taylor hoping to find connections to the organised crime group. Taylor maintains his innocence while being poorly defended by David Rickman, an incompetent legal counsellor. Rickman continuously, but unintentionally, makes Taylor appear guiltier. Rickman eventually tries to get AC-12 to let Taylor go by bribing them. Just as Rickman gives Taylor a plausible alibi, Taylor receives a phone call from "H". Taylor is arrested. After everyone else leaves the interrogation room, Rickman admits out loud to being "H". Fleming returns to collect the interview tape, stating that she forgot to press stop on the recording, incriminating Rickman.

Critical response

Despite less positive reviews than the previous series, series 5 was still ranked highly among critics. Review aggregator  website  Rotten Tomatoes holds an approval rating for series 5 at 90%, with an average rating of 8.40/10, based on 29 reviews. [22] The website's critics consensus reads: “Line of Duty's sterling ensemble all maintain a stiff upper lip, but audiences' limbs will be quavering throughout this tense fifth season that dives deep into moral murk.” On the review aggregator website Metacritic, the series has a score of 88 out of 100 based on 5 critics. [23]

Radio Times drama editor Eleanor Bley Griffiths wrote: "With epic interrogation scenes, surprise betrayals, grisly murders, untold secrets, massive twists... " [24] Pat Stacey of The Irish Independent wrote: "Episode by episode, the plot is thickening, like soup that's been left sitting on a hot stove for too long." [25] Rachel Cooke of the New Statesman was less complimentary in her review, suggesting that Mercurio struggled to give the audience a logical resolution – leading her to call series five “Jed Mercurio’s ropiest bit of work ever sent our way.” [26] Brian Donaldson of The List had solid praise for the actors, but felt the series's plot was somewhat vague; he was critical of the script, stating: “The writing leaves many of them discussing the gravest of matters as though they're reading the contents on the back of a shampoo sachet.” [27]
