If you’re watching #Bodyguard and saying, “I did not see that twist coming” it’s probably because that twist was a load of bollocks that made no sense at all.

And all this because he went on a date with a Tory. Let that be a lesson to all of us. #Bodyguard

The final episode of #Bodyguard taught us not to underestimate women and not to overestimate men’s mental health while simultaneously making me feel like I either needed a stiff drink or a hug for 75 minutes straight. I can’t remember a show this gripping in my lifetime.

How weird. I’ve been gripped by #BodyGuard for weeks but only in this episode have I realised how INCREDIBLY SHIT IT IS!!!!
Shit acting.
Shit lines.
Shot plot.
We’ve all been brainwashed.
Like with Brexit or something.— Giles Coren (@gilescoren) September 23, 2018

The most unbelievable plot twist in #Bodyguard was not having to complete 27 page referral which got returned twice for an occupational health appointment

While #Bodyguard was fun to watch, just remember it can’t happen in real life; not with me keeping an eye on things pic.twitter.com/euWdp5YDb6

Utterly unbelievable end to #Bodyguard. If @jed_mercurio has taught us anything it's that Chief Superintendent Lorraine Craddock would always have insisted on being interviewed by someone of equal or higher rank, not DCI Sharma…

Lessons learnt from #Bodyguard
1) Never trust anyone
2) Never underestimate women
3) Everything is better after one meeting with occupational health— ilona burton (@ilonacatherine) September 23, 2018

Can we just take a moment to appreciate David Budd wiping his shoes on the mat? #bodyguard pic.twitter.com/P2qD6qyJj2

I’d be willing to bet £5 that there was briefly a draft of the script where Budd cuts the wire and the bomb goes off and the credits roll. Because that would have been incredible #Bodyguard

Quite annoyed with the #Bodyguard finale tbf. Just feels like lazy writing. Inevitably perpetuating the same stereotype we thought it was shattering and further fuelling islamaphobia / hatred towards Muslims and (by extension) the entire South Asian community. Nice work.

#Bodyguard Alternate Ending:
David: My name is David and I need some help.
Counsellor: Well, let’s get to the bottom of things right away.
David: What?
