Just two episodes of Forbrydelsen (the killing) series 3 to go.Jummy!!
And a new season of Broen has officially started!
Saga Noren- hello again
Ive seen innan vi dør.Fortitude had lots of potential and was going okay mid way.
Then it kind of lost its way. Like the script writers needed a root cause and jumped on a rather implausible one..
I finished The Bridge, Boen series 3.
Series 4 up soon..
Next up is Before we die - Innan vi dör. Yay, Swedish
She is my fav ever in any crime show Ive seen.
We've got the series 4 of The Bridge / Bron pleasure still to come yetIve seen innan vi dør.
Saw last episode of Broen yesterday. I miss Saga already
Aje, she is great as wellWe've got the series 4 of The Bridge / Bron pleasure still to come yet
Yes, she's an interesting character!
We've liked her Danish male counterparts too.
Haven't read that one.
My wife started A man called Ove by the same author but gave up as it was rather depressing - and she's Swedish so should be used to it
It's supposed to get good so she says she's going to Re-kindle it, literally on her Kindle..
Been in Sweden a week now;
no nasty dark serial murders (Wallander),
no serial psychopath murders (The Bridge)
no past disappearances / rapist murders (Girl with the dragon tattoo),
no weird ancient people living underground trying to survive interacting with us (Jordskott),
no kiddie fiddling / Nazii throw backs (Rebecca Martinsson),
no drug dealing feud killing Swedish mafia (Gåsmamman)!
no ghostly pyscho killings at the ski resort (Svartsjön)
Not even sexy Swedish/Norwegian/Danish widows blowing up their husbands and become drug barons..
Must have dodged the bullet so far
Yes by and large.
I kind of imagined what you say. In the case of the Swedish/Danish interaction, I believe that people who live so near from each other as the Malmo Swedes and the Copenhagen Danes should understand each other very well.Yes by and large.
Norwegians and Swedes do understand each other to a greater extent than Swedes / Norwegians do with Danes.
Regional difference apply.
It depends on where you grew up and what exposure and practice you have.
Someone who has lived their entire life in the North of Sweden and only spoken their dialect would in my experience struggle greatly with Danish.
Even Stockholmers by and large do.
My wife from Nyköping needs subs on Danish stuff.
I can understand a fair bit having worked their a bit ages ago, and sat through all episodes and series of The Killing and The Bridge etc
If a more general Scandinavian / slower speed is adopted it gets much much easier.
Yes, with the bridge there it is much more interactive between the two now.
Norwegians understand swedes and danes very well. The swedes dont understand either well i think.
The funny thing is that they can resort to speaking English. Danes have the best English skills of any country where English isn't the official language. They learn it in school, beginning at a young age, watch America movies and television shows, and listen to American and British music. Swedes are almost as good as the Danes with English, and Norwegians are a little behind the Swedes.
I came across many Danes in Copenhagen that have better English than Americans I’ve met.
Yes by and large.
