Tomorrow is Saturday night. So you can bet I'll be sitting on my sofa watching a double dose of my new favourite Danish drama, Borgen. Newspapers have been covering the UK's love affair with Danish television shows, and I am certainly hooked. It all started with The Killing which we stumbled upon on Netflix... Now we're on to Borgen and after that I guess we better catch The Bridge — a Swedish/Danish drama that received great reviews too.
I'm can't speak for last series I mentioned, but as for The Killing and Borgen, I love that the leads are strong, smart female characters. It's so refreshing. Have you jumped on the Danish drama bandwagon too?
(P.S. We often reminisce about a family holiday we took to Denmark... We lucked out with gorgeous late summer summer weather. Such a peaceful vacation!)

I love me a bit of Danish drama! The Bridge was pretty good too, you'll like that if you like this and The Killing. I need more!
I wonder if they are on in the US...
Josie- addictive, right?! Good to know The Bridge is similar-esque... Better start it soon!
I'm a Danish drama fanatic too! I'm afraid I chose to watch the American version of the killing though but I am going to get the Danish versions as the 3 series are all different and not just based on one story. I absolutely loved the bridge, it took a couple of episodes to get into but I was hooked, can't wait till series 2, I heard they started filming in October, so shouldn't be long! I also liked lilyhammer and have bought it because my husband liked the look of it and he isn't really into subtitled programmes. I also missed the first series of borgen which I hear is very good so I will be getting them on DVD. I hear Those who kill is supposed to be good and Unit 1. God I could go on and on, I feel totally hooked and want to get them all, I am going to have a shelf dedicated to Danish dramas. I just love them! Sorry for rambling lol
