Borgen



This continues to be superb, gripping drama, four episodes into series two.  How often do we manage that?  Realism here isn't serial slaughter but political negotiations over war in Afghanistan, representatives in the European Parliament, early retirement and Somali pirates.  Seriously.  The script is sharp, the performances nuanced, the stories unpredictable and with myriad fallouts.  Worth ten hours of squinting to see all the subtitles.  Seriously.  Have I said that before?  Nyborg for Staatsminister!
