New Scandi Crime Drama

[fussychica]

Arne Dahl : The Blinded Man starts Saturday 6/4 on BBC4. Based on Jan Arnald's novels (pen name Arne Dahl) it's a series of five stories.

This one unfolds in two 90 minute episodes with another female in the lead - Jenny Hultin is the boss who sets up a special squad of crack detectives after a series of murders on consecutive nights.

Sounds promising.

Thanks, great. Longing for next series of The Bridge here, altho more Borgen wouldn't go amiss.

[claudedebussy]

great!!! thanks for the tip off.

oooh no. i thought borgen was fantastic. great female role model, political intrigue, strength of character.

but the bridge was just brilliant! when's it coming back?

i will definitely be watching the blinded man.

just watched the first 90 mins, was great, will watch the next one tomorrow pm (the joys of term time working...!)

I didn't watch the Bridge or Borgen but heard various people talk about the bridge and have read a finnish (or danish?) who dunnit recently called She's Never Coming Back which my DH pased onto me when he had read it. Was excellent.

just watched the first episode but fear I have to watch part of it again might have dozed off a couple of times
a bit gory, but good so far.

Love it so far, can't wait for tomorrow and glad the bridge is coming back too

[fussychica]

Bugger - clashes with Masters, will have to record. Same with Endeavour tomorrow. Have to get my golf and crime fix.
