I then looked on I Player but it does not show up there!

Perhaps Auntie failed to retune the iPlayer on Wednesday ...

I think the Good Cop story, which included a false call to the police resulting in an ambush attack and death of an officer was just too near for any channel to want to risk airing it last week. And in this instance I am inclined to agree as it was eerily near to what happened.

Except that that bit has already been shown and can't be taken back now

I thought the postponed one had an attack on the WPC, presumably the
blonde, which hadn't happened in the aired episodes?

"Written by Stephen Butchard - Bafta-nominated for Five Daughters -
Good Cop focuses on the responses of officers dealing with 999
call-outs. The opening episode saw a police officer murdered in the
line of duty.

PC Bone and PC Hughes suffered fatal injuries in a gun and grenade
attack in Mottram, Tameside, after attending a house following reports
of a burglary."

So it was already shown? I wonder if life imitated art by total creepy
coincidence or Cregan got the idea from that.
