Walter presents ch4, any one watch these?

Any recommendations?

Bumping this as I want to get back into watching these. I regularly start a series then get distracted but I love them. Just started Locked Up.

I have just watched The Devil's Throat ( Bulgarian with rather a nice lead detective) and Rig 45 Murder at Sea (Irish/Swedish collaboration) If you enjoyed Vigil you will probably enjoy this. Both were on All 4.

Mafia only kills on summer

Murder by the lake, set in the French alps, and others in the same series, great actors, fabulous scenery….

I’m gripped by 4 Strangers at the moment. I wasn’t that bothered after the first episode but persevered as was bored with covid and got hooked very quickly.

Placemarking

Ride the Storm, Danish drama, is fantastic. Has the impressive Lars Mikkelsen in a lead role.

I was thinking of watching giving this a go but it looks like they only have Series 2 on All4 - does that matter, do you think, or can I go straight in with seeing Series 1?

I've watched the 2 danish programmes - not scandi noir - Seaside Hotel and New Nurses. Seaside Hotel set after the 1st World War - love the 20s wardrobe & the emphasis on the food. New Nurses after the 2nd World War & about a shortage of nurses leading to male nurses being tried out. Really enjoyed both series & disappointed that All4 hasn't got some of the later series for either. I also watched & found interesting The Pleasure Principle - this is a murder story split over 1 series.Polish, czech & ukrainian bits - most interested in the latter as I know so little about Ukraine & Odessa in particular. It was filmed in 2019. It was fairly violent & somewhat convoluted.

@JemimaTab Re Ride Upon the Storm you really need to see it from the beginning to appreciate the full family dynamic. I think you can get it on Amazon Prime, or otherwise l think its streaming on Starz.

Public Enemy and all the Killer by the lake series

Where can I watch line of separation please?!

Grey Zone - brilliant!

Watching ....

Agree, it's pretty crucial to watch the first one. I think it's worth the effort/spending though; it's, as a Guardian review said, 'flinty', but utterly absorbing. Excellent acting too.

I quite like The Crimson Rivers (French). Crimes in various picturesque rural parts of France, usually with a killer 'inspired' by religion/myth etc who kills people in symbolic kinds of ways. The leads are two detectives from Paris who spend a good part of the episode complaining about the local accommodation/food/hapless police and supporting team
It's a bit hokey (DP says it's real-life Scooby-Doo) but I find it enjoyable.

I absolutely love Walter Presents - I've seen too many to list here. Most have been excellent, only a couple I've given up on as they've been too confusing and I can't deal with plot holes and things that aren't tied up properly at the end.
