There's no denying that the nation is well and truly hooked on BBC crime drama Line of Duty, with season five hitting our screens at the end of last month.

Whilst we continue to watch the show to try and work out who 'H' is, it's now been confirmed that the popular show will end with a feature-length film for the series finale!

The BBC have confirmed that Jed Mercurio's series will conclude with a "nail-biting 90-minute finale", leaving us VERY excited.

Check out all of the acronyms from Line of Duty explained:

OCG - Organised Crime Group: Serious crime planned, coordinated and conducted by people working together on a continuing basis, mostly acting in different roles depending on their skills and expertise.


PACE - Police and Criminal Evidence Act: Established in 1984, a code of practice that regulates police powers and protects public rights.

Meanwhile, last Sunday's episode (14th April), left viewers on the edge of their seats, with a certain spelling mistake gaining a LOT of attention from viewers.

As undercover cop and leader of the OCG John Corbett made contact with the top dog (known simply as H), viewers noticed a glaring spelling error, with the word 'definitely' spelt as 'definately'.

Meanwhile, as the series continues, on Sunday night we discovered that the OCG is running a brothel, keeping girls there against their will, and secretly saving evidence of their clients’ visits.

There was also trouble in paradise for DS John Corbett and DS Steve Arnott’s fledging bromance as John was furious Steve had used the intel to raid the brothel and printing shop, rather than using it for the bigger prize of catching ‘H’. Plus a daring raid of Eastfield depot, home to millions of pounds of seized goods, resulted in the death of a senior corrupt police officer who was dramatically shot by John.
