Anyone watching/watched any of these, mainly on BBC4?
Heard a lot about them so watched 3rd series of 'The Bridge' which was spell-binding and I got the first two series on DVD. Now watching the Danish one 'Follow The Money'. Not quite up to the standard of The Bridge but excellent nonetheless.
'The Killing' was another I think but not seen any of that yet.
As I alluded to in my post, if they go to the trouble of making English speaking remakes of shows, they cant be too shabby, and all of the 3 remakes were almost as good as the originals. Some people just love to hate and be contrary, I feel sorry for them that they cant enjoy life and feel the need to denigrate other's enjoyment, like it makes them somehow superior. Trolls gotta troll.
Love the bridge, haven't seen much of the Killing or Borgen but people tell me they're great. More into books and films if I'm honest, 101 Reykjavik, The Girl..., Jar City all good.
The Erlendur series of books that Jar City is part of is great, I think Jo Nesbo even knicked a plot line!
Where can I find the Scandinavian version of the bridge either translated into English or with English sub titles please.
I can only find it in Swedish. I've watched the American/Mexican version but would like to watch the Swedish version to see how it compares.
Anyone any ideas?
They went to Abu Dhabi last night. It was the worst part of the series so far.
The corrupt MD of this Danish energy firm sells a stake in his firm to an Abu Dhabi invester for several hundred million, on the basis of a supposedly 'groundbreaking' superconductor - after clinching the deal with a 'demonstration' which was the exact same "dry-iced magnet/conductor that hovers over and runs round a track" trick that Steven Fry did in QI a couple of seasons ago. The whole thing was about as realistic as going on Dragon's den, showing one of those clocks that runs on a potato, and walking away with a million quid. If you were the sensitive type, you could even call it racist.
