BBC4 has a new Danish drama called Borgen starting tomorrow night. Same format as the Killing-2 episodes per night. Again made by DR and a huge hit in Denmark-a political thriller. Looks worth a look

I think it is only on for the next 4 weeks though-10 episodes in all. The good news is that in Denmark they are on season 3 so there should be more coming

I'm entirely certain that we will never see Denmark's answer to Ant and Dec.

Finally got round to watching the first episode tonight and I really enjoyed it. Looking forward to catching up on the next 3 episodes available.

Borgen is a bit like The Killing without the cool music and the guns. Dark. Lots of walking and talking in corridors and meeting rooms. Sexual tensions.
I wouldn't say it was so very much better than British series of recent years but it will keep me absorbed.

Im convinced the mole is the dizzy redhead PA to the PM, and the PMs apparently angelic new man husband will turn out to be a bad 'un. I'm really hoping it doesnt end predictably and throws us some curveballs instead.

I did enjoy the first series of Borgen, though IMO it isn't a patch on The Killing. It still represents goood grown up drama, of which there isn't much around. The story of the spin doctor Kasper and his sexual abuse in childhood at the hands of his father is very interesting and will doubtless be covered further in series two.
I've only seen season one of The Killing, and enjoyed it so much I bought the dvd right away. I shall be buying season two shortly along with The Wire, which I haven't seen at all but have been assured it's brilliant.

Those Who Kill
Did anyone see this new Danish crime series on ITV 3 last night?
It contains Troels from Borgen. A bit different from the Killing-one story for each 2 hour episode but once again very good televsion
Available on catch up if you missed it

Enjoyed the first episode, watching the second one on watchagain tonight. The girl detective being borderline Asbergers is an interesting device. Very like the original Wallander series in style.

Ordered series two of The Killing and am looking forward to watching it. I believe series three is in the making now.

I'm totally hooked on the bridge. Brilliant TV, how do this production team keep doing it?
Saga is very cool. Her olive green vintage porsche is nice too.

The Bridge is preposterous nonsense but it is hugely enjoyable preposterous nonsense. Saga is brilliant

Really enjoyed the 2 episodes of The Bridge last night. Saga had me in stitches with her bluntness and her realtionship with Martin is funny
