We know that there are people out there who could happily spend their lives on an Ikea sofa reading Mankell and other Scandi books when not watching Scandi noir on TV. We are not those people. You can have too much of a good thing, right? So when this came along for the BBC4 Saturday Night Audience and we were told it was about a serial killer of financiers, we wondered if the whole series might not be just a Scandi Ingmar Bergman-style debate on the ethics of leaving the killer at large.
But no. It's a crime drama along the lines of other Scandi crime dramas. Need we say more? Well produced with a smattering of dark humour and some scenes of spattery blood. Oh and a female boss, but lately we in the UK have been having those frequently too. Pick up those swedish meatballs, some Danish lager and enjoy.
