As the hunt for H intensifies, AC-12's Steve and Kate wonder if Hastings is guarding a dark secret

Last week’s shocking murder (we didn’t see that coming!) has turned everything on its head, but as AC-12 is in the dark about what happened, they’re still debating how to proceed with their investigations.

Does Hastings (Adrian Dunbar) have more to hide than a dodgy investment?

Meanwhile, after years of working as a tight-knit trio, Kate (Vicky McClure)and Steve (Martin Compston) are increasingly concerned about Hastings (Adrian Dunbar).

Look out for Anna Maxwell Martin, making her Line of Duty debut as a senior anti-corruption cop to be reckoned with.
