I can't find a thread about this, is anyone watching?

It's become my Saturday Scandi treat in the absence of Trapped. Love it. Plus there's the odd familiar face from The Bridge, Borgen etc, so Dh and I can spend a pleasurable evening trying to remember who they were.

Haven't been able to watch tonight's yet so am saving it for tomorrow but DH and I are hooked! We have been spoilt as only discovered it last week so have been able to watch an episode a night on I player, not sure how we are going to cope having to wait each week now! Love these Scandi dramas too - we are halfway through Trapped at the moment as well (yes I know, Icelandic not Danish but still!). Was surprised at who the 'voice' was in ep 6...

I do too re: Alf halsall...Grin

Pps - Claudia clearly in over her head and clouded by ambition, and therefore being played by Sanders....

Excellent, there are at least 3 of us watching this Grin

I recognised the sinister fixer with the beard as one of the team in the first series of Arne Dahl, if anyone saw that. He was a total buffoon in that - it's very entertaining seeing him as a baddie.

Oh God.....heart in mouth now. No spoilers but - eeeek.

I think ambition and being in over their heads applies to quite a few characters! I really like Nicky. His sidekick, Bimse, has to be the biggest liability I've seen in a long time.

CremeEggThief · 09/04/2016 22:47

Ultimately, will Sander over reach himself? He's been ice-cool so far...

Exactly, Creme. Himself is a dingbat (and also looks unsettlingly like a young Gazza)

Himself = Bimse, obvs

Nail on the head there, Halsall. He is a great idiot though!

vjg13 · 10/04/2016 18:50

Love this too!

MaynJune · 10/04/2016 20:22

I'm a fan too. Am about to catch up with last night's episodes.
With Thicker than Water and Blue Eyes there's a feast of Scandi stuff at the moment.

CremeEggThief · 10/04/2016 21:27

It goes too quickly with the double episodes. Last two next Saturday nightSad. I wonder if Mads and Alf will get a 2nd series? It's making me long to visit Copenhagen.

Yoksha · 10/04/2016 21:55

I'm a fan. Really into this with Dh. Eagerly waiting to see how it pans out. Thanks for starting this thread OP. Smile

DrSausagedog · 10/04/2016 22:32

Thanks for starting this thread. I've been enjoying it so far. Can't help feeling sorry for Claudia even though she's made big mistakes, wonder how it will all end for her.

Poppytime · 15/04/2016 09:53

Just watched episode 7, do we think sanders is going to 'bump off' Claudia, or at least try to? I thought the 'I am going to miss you' etc sounded rather final, more than just her leaving the job etc - she also looked a bit unsure...

Poppy, yes, that occurred to me, too!

They really kept the twists going right till the end, didn't they?

I'd better not give anything away for anyone who hasn't seen it yet!

OP posts:
CremeEggThief · 16/04/2016 23:34

Anyone who needs to catch up still is in for a treat! I wonder if they'll make a second series? I would like to see more of Alf and Mads.

DrSausagedog · 16/04/2016 23:37

Brilliant final episode.

Hope there's another series.

Panicmode1 · 17/04/2016 11:27

I just binged on the whole series over the course of two days - thought it was really good.....the ending Shock!!

Hope there is a second series too...
