Re: Netflix / Prime recommendations

Off topic from Netflix/Prime title but tv show related. I recently signed up to Britbox and watched all 6 series of "line of duty". I though series 1-4 were brilliant but series 5 and 6 were merely more of the same. I'm curious to know what you folks you saw the show thought of it.
