Enjoyed this,good mix of fast moving drama and black humour.
I wasn't sure if each episode was self contained or ran over to the next but will be watching next week.
Also nice scandi property pornSmile, lovely bankers houses.

Oooh, I enjoyed that.
I spent the whole first part saying that something bad was going to happen to Viggo and DH said I was just a pessimist

I thought it was great. Like the fast pace. Dh and I were giggling at that typical 39 new characters in the first 20 minutes. Particularly like the strong female cop boss and the property porn. Liked the infinity pool one vair much. Envy That you can just nip to Tallinn for the day too.

Good start - looking forward to the conclusion of this story next week plus the rest of the series.
Last weeks Argentinian film in this time slot was superb.

I really enjoyed that tonight. Great job. Love how the brainbox is also a master manipulator - I do wonder if he turns out to have not so dead connections with various mafioso!!

Looking forward to tuning in next week Smile

Mmmm - liked the increase in characterisation but thought there were lots of flaws in the plot. Will give it another go though.

I liked it , but felt it kind of descended into csi style trash- cop drama at the end. Not that keen on cheating cop man either. Poor wife FGS . What an assShock

I watched the first episode and haven't yet been able to bring myself to look at the second.....what a ghastly ending that was. I think I should though, it's nice to be chatting about a scandi thing again!

Was that August from "The Bridge" who turned up as the financier's son, sneaking into the house they were watching?

Better than that horrendous copycat Broadchurch - does anyone else think it's a pale imitation, or is it just me? Even down to the unusual theme music. Sorry BC, doesn't do it for me. (yes I've seen the thread and on that I seem to be a minority of 1)

Surely it can't be the tourism aspect - I mean, Dorset must be a better place for a weekend away than Tallin? and you do practically need subtitles for both....

Without putting any spoilers in - watch the 2nd part.

I enjoyed it. I didn't think it was any better than any series by home grown crime writers, but I just lurve hearing Scandi accents.
