Wallander

[MunchkinsMumof2]

Hi, could some kind Wallander fan fill in some gaps in my gaping knowledege please?! I haven't watched for a while but tuned in last night to a completely different Swedish actor playing Kurt, no Linda and an assortment of different Detectives that I've never seen!
ta in advance

a looooooooooooong time ago, there were some episodes made before Kristar whathis face and Johanna Sallstrom took over in 2003

Last night was a film version and completely separate to the fabulous Swedish TV version with Kristar Henriksson.

According to my Radio Times, the main actor was Rolf Lassgard and there are another 4 of these coming on BBC4.

I'm not sure about this interpretation of Kurt to be honest, but I'll give it time .

Ah, thank you! That makes sense as I didn't see any familiar faces. I love Wallander, the acting and all the sub-plots are fab.

I loved the ones with Kristar something.

And the guy who played Stefan

Much, much better than the tripe with Kenneth "luvvie" Brannagh

these are the "old" films based on the novels by Henning Mankell.
the newer ones with Linda are "only" based on that character.
