Luther fans notice major blunder as scene goes from night to day in seconds when John finds serial killer Dr Jeremy Lake
LUTHER fans noticed a major blunder during tonight’s series finale as a scene went from night to day in seconds.
The issue occurred as Idris Elba’s character John entered a house where he believed serial killer Dr Jeremy Lake to be hiding out.
As he entered with DS Halliday – played by Wunmi Mosaku – he turned on a torch to see in the pitch darkness.
But moments later, after locating the murderer, John stepped outside into the blazing sunshine.
The blunder was immediately picked up on by eagle-eyed viewers, who took to Twitter to comment.
One wrote: “Did #luther just go from the middle of the night to the middle of the day?”
Another added: “So #luther went in in the dead of night then came out in broad daylight ! Impressive”.
A third tweeted: “Anyone notice how quickly it went from night to day in #Luther?” while a fourth agreed, writing: “How did that last scene in #Luther go from night time when they arrived and day time when they left the house?? Did they chill all night with all those dead bodies??”
A fellow viewer shared: “#Luther brilliant loved it but…. they go in the house at night and come out daytime….”
Viewers were also outraged by the shock ending, which saw psychopath Alice Morgan kill DS Halliday before plunging to her death.
The final episode in series 5 – branded the ‘scariest ever’ – left viewers mourning John’s pal (Ruth Wilson) as the major character was mercilessly killed off.
Tweets poured in as fans paid their respects to twisted Alice – who had shot dead DS Halliday moments before.
One person said: “Nooooooooooooooooo Alice? Halliday? The end of the bloody season????”
Another said: “alice remains one of the baddest characters on telly”
And another pledged: “Well that’s the end of my interest in #Luther. Alice Morgan is one of the best characters on TV. Unless she’s resurrected, Series 6 can f*** off.”
