Line Of Duty Fans Point Out Hastings' Unfortunate Dubbing Fail In Latest Episode

Trust us when we say, there was a big old twist, though.

However, away from the main action, one thing that had a fair few viewers talking was a less-than-subtle redub that fell slap-bang in the middle of the episode.

Line Of Duty returned for its fifth series at the end of last month, after a two-year absence.

While regulars like Vicky McClure and Adrian Dunbar returned for the new episodes, This Is England actor Stephen Graham also joined the action as newcomer John Corbett.

During Line Of Duty’s absence, the show’s creator Jed Mercurio has enjoyed huge success with his hit series Bodyguard, which went on to be recognised at the Golden Globes in January, after making a splash on Netflix in the US, as well as at the upcoming TV Baftas.

Line Of Duty returns for a brand new instalment on BBC One this Sunday night, but if you can’t wait until then, read our burning questions review of episode four.
