Not finding it that scary

Blondes is hard !!! 😂😂

[Teddygirlonce]

Blondes I'm gaining my courage from Hanne .

I guess I'm convincing myself it's less a horror film and more of a thriller.

[Halsall]

Deux when 'The Bridge was first on, the guy who played Martin was on Breakfast TV one day and they asked him to say something in Danish. He said 'I'll have a cup of tea' and it sounded exactly like a Liverpudlian. Uncanny. It's all to do with the slurring and the glottal stops in Danish.

(And yes, Scouse is a kind of stew, the name comes from a dish Scandinavian sailors used to eat)

[PurplePillowCase]

'labskaus' is also a traditional dish in northern germany.

I was enjoying it up until the dead woman in the shower. Police turn up and put her in bag, conclude the C.O.D as suicide within an hour or so. No Post Mortem examination. No forensics at the hotel, no witness statements taken, no Wallander-like detective poking around afterwards, no interviews. This is a place where how many murders recently took place? Totally implausible.

Also I can't believe the relationship between main character and the man she's engaged to, (I'm awful with names). The one trying to buy the resort... They are so different and he is so utterly unlikable. I just can't believe they would have ever been attracted to each other to begin with

I'm looking forward to the new series of Spiral though which is being shown in France at the moment I believe?

[Deux]

Slight detail. Oh I love Spiral. I think I only saw one series on BBC4. I think the female detective was pregnant? Was that the last series or have I missed one?

[Deux]

FFS, derail.

[anonymice]

you have missed the first three series of Spiral @Deux. They were ALL brilliant.

[Crackednips]

Yes Spiral is good. The series about the two drug dealing brothers who headed the drug gang, seemed to be a rip off of the first series of "The Wire" I felt...

But it is very watchable and well acted IMO. Anyone know when the new series starts?

[anonymice]

it's on in France now. It's usually a six month lag till BBC Four picks it up....

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Where can I see Spiral?

[Crackednips]

6 months??? Nooooooooooooooo

[Deux]

I think I looked for earlier series of Spiral after I watched the one on BBC4 and I did find it somewhere but I think it was Amazon. At the time it wasn't on Netflix. Must have another look.

[Crackednips]

They're all available on DVD I believe.

My money’s on Mette being a wrong un

My money’s on Mette being a wrong un

Usually it IS the least/most obvious suspect, so you could be on to something.

Did wonder whether Mette and Johan might end up together too - in some ways they seem much better suited than Johan and Hanne.

[DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen]

Is that the sister? Yeah,me too!

[ticklady]

Yay! It's Saturday, last episodes!!
Can't wait 😊.
Johann and Hanna won't be together by the end of it, she'll fall for jostein, i reckon. I also wonder if she's hiding guilt about her bro Jacob who drowned as she saw it , ......or did she do it eh? Eh? .....

[Teddygirlonce]

No real indication why she should be no. 1 suspect though, other than being the one supplying the potentially 'laced' eye-drops?

And she (like Elin) fits the alpha wolf analogy - sitting on the sidelines watching whilst remaining calm, cool and collected.

[Deux]

Looking forward to this tonight. I noticed Walter Presents introducing a new Scandi drama starting on Wednesday C4 which I'll probably watch, can't remember the title.

[Teddygirlonce]

Did you clock that Pennywise in It (the film) is played by one of Walter's brothers, Bill?

[minesapintofwine]

Oo getting excited now! Not long until the last episodes.

I'm suspicious of Frank and Mette but glad we'll finally find out. I hope it's not a shit ending.

I have really enjoyed this. Not sure what I'll do now (but thanks deux will check that c4 one out). I've never heard of spiral. I want to see it! 35 minutes to go. Dh is in a and e having his head glued after rugby (!) I'm sorry but if he comes home in the middle of it and I have to be all sympathetic and stuff I won't be happy!!!

[ticklady]

minesapint I hope you don't have to go and get dh or you'll miss it!
Have left my kids to dh to sort out I'm not missing this tonight

[minesapintofwine]

tick luckily I have young dc in bed so he won't ask me to get him 😂
