LINE of Duty fans believe they know who is the behind mysterious recording.
The BBC cop drama is back with another series and millions tuned in to watch the action unfold in the brand new episode last night.
AC-12 are investigating the death of journalist Gail Vella and questioned newcomer DCI Joanne Davidson (Kelly MacDonald) over the murder.
But after a partial audio file amongst Gail’s stuff was found, viewers think the mysterious voice on the recording is Jimmy Lakewell, Roz Huntley’s solicitor from series four.
One fan penned: “I’m calling it – the male voice on the Gale Vella recording was Jimmy Lakewell, Nick Huntley’s lawyer #LineOfDuty.”
While another wrote: “The male voice on the recording from Gails laptop sounded like Roz Huntley’s lawyer Jimmy Lakewell from series 4. Was he providing information to Gail about the OCG.”
Another fan speculated: “Was Gail Vella interviewing Jimmy Lakewell in prison and that’s the voice on her computer? #LineOfDuty just saying.”
While this user said: “That bloke on the sound recording with Gail Vella is Jimmy Lakewell #LineOfDuty.”
AC-12 wanted to know why her police report about the murder was inconsistent, and how she noticed a lone van was outside a bookies to commit armed robbery, in addition to why she went to stop it rather than doing her intended job of arresting Gail’s murderer.
The cop was able to avoid arrest and set up her ex lover and ex colleague Farida Jatri and she was brought in for questioning after burner phones were found at her home.
As the episode drew to a close, Davidson met with a strange man to collect another burner phone before sobbing uncontrollably in her car.
This made it seem as though she is not leading a double life of her own free will.
Line of Duty continues Sunday at 9pm on BBC One.
