Not scandi but Dear Child on Netflix is canny. German crime drama.

Sunday 22 October on Play and the following Sunday on the telly.
I don't know if the series is any good but I like the look of it. And I don't know either when it could be broadcast in the UK or elsewhere.
So pretty useless answers, sorry about that.
Don't know how I missed Bordertown (Sorjonen) before, but catching up on it, half way through Season 2.
Also 4 or 5 episodes into Springfloden, which I kind of like, but went a little strange when the police asked a circus knife throwing bloke to go check out a case for them

Heard any reviews? I’ve not watched the first ulrich thomsen version, but the imdb rating for the Marco Effect was only 5.3!

Just finished Grey Zone which I don’t think has been mentioned on this thread. 2018, 10 episodes, Amazon Prime. Really good and featuring Birgitte Hjort Sørensen (journalist on Borgen). An air of The Bridge about it with Swedish/Danish cop collaboration. 9/10 from me.

Binged Dear Child yesterday, very interesting story which seems simple at first but grows in complexity as it progresses. Some of the acting was a bit ropey though, but despite that I liked the fact that the whole series (only 6 episodes) was spent on the escapees rather than the search for the perp

It was glorious and much missed. Nine episodes in this series which will be the final series, too. Tonight's episode set the new series up nicely.

It is a bit of a strange one isn't. I can't describe which genre it is apart from making me feel nice and warm inside this time of year. Guess the series is just full of good, old-fashioned hygge.
For those who don't know it yet:
Also found this. By the sound of the comments below the clip it is getting quite popular in the UK.
