Ian Buckells eh?
Despite being the subject of an H theory fairly early on this series (on account of some golf clubs in his office), we’d be willing to bet that the confirmation of Buckells as the apparent mastermind behind the clandestine network of police corruption had you surprised.
As Kate Fleming rightly pointed out, she s worked with him a number of times before and he s been right under AC-12 s noses this whole time.
Actor Nigel Boyle previously teased, during a 2017 interview with
Digital Spy, that there s definitely more to Buckells than meets the eye – and he sure wasn t wrong!
Line of Duty fans think they ve solved identity of H - and it s not who you think
Who do you think will be revealed as the final senior corrupt officer and head of organised crime within Central Police?

IT’S the question at the heart of Line Of Duty – which of its leading characters is secretly the criminal mastermind “H”?
Well for now, the show’s millions of viewers can rest easy, as it’s not the person many feared it could be anti-corruption chief Ted Hastings.

Actor Adrian Dunbar, who has played the stalwart cop since the hit drama began on BBC2 in 2012, says he has been reassured by its creator Jed Mercurio that his iconic character is not the undercover fourth member of the organised crime group.
Next weekend Line Of Duty returns for a sixth series and not a moment too soon. The hugely popular police drama is a must-watch for armchair sleuths.
At the heart of the action is AC-12, the anti-corruption squad headed by Superintendent Ted Hastings (Adrian Dunbar) and his two trusty sidekicks, Detective Inspector Kate Fleming (Vicky McClure) and Detective Sergeant Steve Arnott (Martin Compston). My department carries out its duties to the letter of the law, says Hastings. Yet, week after week, viewers are lured into a dark and complex world of police-on-police crime that is sometimes shocking and often confusing.
