Professor T: Jasper locked in prison ahead of his trial
Professor T viewers all said the same thing as they tuned in to watch the third instalment on Wednesday night. Jasper Tempest (played by Ben Miller) was up in court and had to decide whether to save himself or his former lover. Meanwhile, a prison officer was found dead and Professor Tempest was instantly put in the frame for their murder.
The professor had decided to change his plea to guilty in a bid to save his ex, but in an unexpected turn of events, he pleaded not guilty and was set free from prison.
"I thought I might find you here," Christina (Juliet Aubrey) said as Professor T reflected on his freedom. "I wanted to say how sorry I am...what I put you through trying to keep my job."
"It was not your responsibility," Professor T replied before adding: "I made that choice...and did you? Keep your job?" Christina went on to say she quit before "they could fire me".
"I am still under investigation, I have no future in the force. I am here to say goodbye, I am moving to the coast with Michael and the kids. I am glad that I have known you, I loved you."

When speaking about the latest series and his character's storyline, Ben told Radio Times: "It's just about the worst environment he could possibly find himself in.
"First of all, he's germaphobic, and the whole of the prison is pretty unhygienic. I think he struggles with that.
"He really doesn't like the food, and he finds it really difficult sharing a cell with someone."
Professor T returns on Wednesday at 9pm on ITV.
