Fair enough, says you, he was looking forward to an afterwork pint with his mates. Outside of the Red Lion reference, Lomax is certainly less than enthused by Kate's suggestion that he stay on to supervise the digging up of the building's floor. The Red Lion is the pub where the CHIS was last seen, where Devereaux, the witness who implicated Terry Boyle was sourced and the pkace where Carl Banks bragged about the murder of the Gail Vella before he himself was killed. But it's also been a very important off-camera OCG viper's pit in Season 6. Some viewers thought Lomax was a double agent after he was. He also headed up the forensic investigation into the OCG workshop were firearms were being held. He was in the police convoy that got diverted due to the armed robbery on a bookies in episode one.

Now the Red Lion is one of the most common names for boozers in the United Kingdom. DS Chris Lomax was part of the team investigating Operation Lighthouse in Line Of Duty. He has also starred alongside his Line of Duty co-star Vicky. He clearly says ' could be in the Red Lion by eight, nice work' before hanging up. DS Chris Lomax is played by actor Perry Fitzpatrick, who has appeared in shows like This Is England '90, I Am and Peaky Blinders.

Lived In Saint Louis MO, Atlanta GA, Jacksonville AL, Kennesaw GA. If Line of Duty has taught us anything, it's that bentness is everywhere and all-consuming. While theories abound about the bentness of Carmichael, Hastings and even DI Fleming, there's a sudden lack of crooked cops around the Hill to thwart the ongoing investigation into Gail Vella's murder.

Jo - despite protestations to her bentness - is in prison, where bad things surely await her. One of the consequences of Episode 6, Season 6 of Line of Duty is sudden shortfall in bent coppers. (Warning: this article contains spoilers and theories about future spoilers)
