The Legacy is back on Sky Arts... however, I've found that two series ("seasons" for you wannabe yanks) was enough and I've completely lost interest in it 🙁

The Keeper of Lost Causes
Jordskott
Crimes of Passion
Arne Dahl
The 100 Code
The Bridge
Borgen was fantastic, and I missed The Killing so it's on [i]my[/i] list.
Can also recommend Hard, french drama where a woman inherits her husbands porn empire she knew nothing about...........

Anywhere I can find seasons 2&3 of the Bridge online, all I get is the American version or ££££ for the proper version

Lead character just happens to have been the lead character 'Sander' in Season 1 of Follow The Money. 🙂

Indeed. And this week's villain was the press spokesman guy from Borgen 🙂

Oh. My. God.

Has anyone seen Hjellford on All4 yet? It's the most random thing I have ever seen. Ever. 😆

Yes, it's a bit daft but I like it - Iben Hjejle from High Fidelity and the obligatory bloke from Borgen.

Its a film, but, In Order of Disappearance with Stellan Skarsgard is really good.

New series from Walter Presents and it's called 'Dead Beautiful' featuring the rather lovely Gilou from Spiral. So far so good and *I think* the complete series is available to watch.

PSA. In anticipation of the fourth and final series of The Bridge later this year, all three previous seasons are now on BBC iPlayer.

I might watch the whole lot again!

I see Salamander (OK, not Scandi) is due to start again (after the current painfully slow Saturday night BBC4 offering ends next week).

Looking forward to The Bridge coming back! I started to watch the second series of Jordskott, and just couldn’t engage with it for some reason, same with the Icelandic one, gave up after after a few episodes.

Anyone seen 'Nobel'(2016)?

Norwegian war/political drama based around the Afghanistan conflict.  Just started watching on Netflix, and it's rather good.  Better than rather good, even.  It has that Scandi-noir pacing and serious faces and people saying 'takk' and everyfink.  Been watching one a night, got to episode 4 so I'll give it a thumbs up at half-time.  I recognised the lead character from Jo Nesbo's 'Headhunters'.

My Sky+ recorded the series, but I couldn't even remember what it was about, so deleted it.

The Belgian series "13th Commandment" is excellent. I started it a little while ago and forgot.. picked it up again last night and had a bit of a binge. Worth checking. (Se7en type story, I'd probably describe it).

Anyone seen "Tabula Rasa"? Got a spam from Ch4 with it advertised, looks interesting..

Coming soon to All4;

Cover Story - "Compelling and gritty drama from Iceland about an investigative journalist at a tabloid newspaper who must save her uncertain career as she struggles with both financial and personal issues".

Looking forward to it!

Also looking forward to this wallop, there's been too many crap World Drama programmes that I gave up with.

Haha! To be fair, if it's set in Iceland it probably will be pretty gritty...

Seeing as The Bridge is one of my all time faves....I'll contribute.

The Rain on netflix is another world is over type thing, but it's good for a bit of ironing. 🙂

However, make sure you turn the auto dubbing off when you watch. Theme music very up my street too.

They’re all a bit too grim.

Granted they’re set in Grimms Fairy Tales country but bloody hell, can’t we have one smiling happy character?

I want that series with Pook back on, set in the late 50’s/60’s that was actually pleasant to watch.

Or that French one where the Detective got pregnant, then had an affair with the bloke with the square face..
