Feels like it's been ages since we've had a Scandi series to obsess about. Starts Feb 1st.

Given that it's a dramatization of actual events we all already know the outcome so not exactly the same experience of the police case mysteries that became known from that part of the world.

This is starting on BBC2 on Friday 22nd January

Atlantic Dawn · 22-01-2021 1:19pm

Anyone watching?

Watched the first 2 episodes. Its very good so far. I've no idea how accurate it is but it seems like they are going for a very realistic approach. There's nothing OTT so far and it's very interesting to see how they are carrying out the investigation

Yes I thought that too. I thought they might have went with the body been found in the sub but thankfully not. I like the way they ended both episodes so far.

Watched episodes 3 and 4, both were very good.

Finished it off just now.

Superb show. Never seen a crime drama quite like this before. Last episode in particular was very haunting

Not sure if this was by design or maybe due to some legal issue but

I've never seen a crime drama where you don't get to see the accused but it word really well

Just watched episode 3. Only 1 episodes on the BBC tonight. Very sad at the end of that one. I am just going to keep watching it there. No way I could watch the whole show in one go but happy for others that have.

I see that yes. Strange the way the BBC do things. The same with Battlestat Galactica it started on Sunday and Monday nights then went to friday nights now it's back on a Monday night.

Finished this last night, found the final episode quite moving. A horrible story respectfully told.

Yes. As a tribute to Kim Wall, it's really fine piece of work.

Compelling, sobering. I was impressed they took the trouble with the naval stuff. Quite measured, a lot of care taken with the story. The sheer perseverance they had to keep searching and searching. The shoreline scene in episode 4 was very effective, like few others in recent years, imo. No wonder the frogmen were quiet.

Making of. Remarkable, really.
