Nice one! Thanks for the heads up. My husband [i]will[/i] be pleased 😆

Haven't caught up with the Trapped finale yet - saving it for tomorrow night.

I really enjoyed it. I loved the Bridge and Spiral but struggled with Trapped. Quite light perhaps compared with the Bridge, but it will be interesting to see how the characters develop in later episodes. A very easy couple of hours viewing. Thumbs up from me.

Follow the Money was ok, not gripping. Will continue though.

Blue Eyes in half an hour!

Watched Blue Eyes on catch up last night. It's showing great promise. Just enough for any Scandi addicts to catch up before tonight's episode.

Follow the Money is a laoad of W*** though...

I thought episodes 3&4 of Follow the Money ramped it up quite nicely. I'm sticking with it.

Have given up with 'Blue Eyes' as I kept falling asleep. Ad breaks didn't help and just couldn't get into it.

That was pretty good! Lots of shocking moments. Season 2 on its way in the autumn too.

Yes CG - I'll carry on with it now FtM is over but there's nothing much likeable about it yet.

Season 2 without Sander? Surely not, thought he was excellent and so disappointed he didn't appear to survive the gsw. Saturday nights just won't be the same. 🙁

Perhaps Blue Eyes will be worth another try.

A welcome return but oh how I missed Sander. 🙁 Interestingly though his name was mentioned but no mention of him being six feet under. Was secretly hoping he'd make an appearance, not sure how it will fare without his personality and shenanigans.

Is series 1 of Follow the Money available anywhere?

When Blue Eyes was first advertised, my wife mentioned it was new Swedish drama starting soon. I replied "Oh, Blå Ögon?"..... I think my perfect translation came from having watched The Bridge and their descriptions of suspects. Strange how bits of language subliminally sink in.

Trapped was brilliant, though I don't know any Icelandic

Anybody catch Eyewitness the other night on Channel 4? Looks like it could be a good one.

The rest is on More 4 but I can't seem to get it through my Sky planner, maybe the xbox or tablet as a last resort.

Got four episodes to catch up on, CG, but have been enjoying it. Not as good as season 1 but still worth watching.

You're falling behind wallop! Just been moaning on the LoD thread, reckon I must be difficult to please or something. 😀

Have we reached peak Scandi noir? Or have we been thoroughly spoiled by such good writing?
