Line of Duty Tommy Hunter and Jo Davidson’s real relationship exposed in easy-to-miss post-it clue
LINE of Duty’s Tommy Hunter and Jo Davidson’s real relationship was exposed in an easy-to miss post-it clue, viewers have claimed.
Fans of the BBC One hit are convinced that they have spotted a huge clue in last night’s episode that explains the relationship between the bent copper and the mobster.
Eagle-eyed viewers noticed a post-it note that read: “Jo Davidson DNA has been identified at Farida Jatri’s house. A match has been made to TOMMY HUNTER stating she is both his niece and daughter.”
Viewers believe that this could be a significant clue in determining how the pair are actually related – but were left baffled at the connection.
One fan who spotted the note wrote: “Did anyone else clock this post-it note? Niece AND daughter?”
Another viewer suggested: “Maybe Jo is the missing Teenager that was with Tommy. Ryan is their son it’s his DNA in the flat. He’s been manipulating Jo. He’s the mastermind. Ted has her undercover to stop him.”
Other fans proposed more wilder guesses speculating that Ryan is possibly Jo’s son.
A third added: “Jo is Tommy Hunter’s niece and daughter with the homozygosity in their DNA but did the incest continue and Ryan is Jo’s son, the lingering looks between them, the over the top way he calls her Ma’am (mum) and someone had to have fast tracked him into MIT”
Another confused fan shared: “So if Tommy H is Jo’s dad AND uncle, who is her mum?!?! Guessing Jo doesn’t rate her much as she is lobbying glasses of wine at her photo?!”
This week, viewers discovered that DNA samples belonging to this series’ main bent copper Jo, were last week shown to link her to a sensational figure.
