The Bridge

[homedeeth]

I've just watched back to back for about 10 hours The Bridge Series 1 and then the same 10 odd hours the next day of The Bridge Series 2
Brilliant Scandinavian Crime drama.
However I got confused with the very last episode of series 2 (and that wasn't because my brain had turned to mushed.
Why did Martin go to prison for Jens/Sebastians murder when J/S had committed all the murders and then committed suicide in prison? Saga the main (beautiful) lead grassed Martin up for something and off he went for 10 years! How come?

Hi homedeeth.
Is this series subtitled ?
We wanted to see it, but if it is, we won't bother as it's too distracting

[hellywelly4]

It's subtitled because it isn't in English.

[rockyracoon]

Yes, Rowan, it is subtitled. But, it is one of the best crime dramas, ever.

It's a while since I saw series 3, but didn't Martin poison Jen with a cup of coffee?

[rockyracoon]

Series 4 in May. Woohoo

[jackthehat]

Martin poisoned Jens and deposited the coffee-cup in a bin. Saga saw, retrieved the cup and handed it in to forensics.
It was painful for her but the correct thing to do given her Autism and position as a Police-officer.

It's an excellent series and Saga is one on the most tragic characters I have ever seen anywhere. It's heart-breaking watching her trying find love, companionship, happiness and connect with those around her....
I can't wait for the new series. :o)

[rowanwitch]

Thanks for the info everyone !

[rockyracoon]

JTH, she seems so lost, doesn't she? In a world that she really can't understand.

A while since I saw it, but it had the most incredible theme tune.

It's an absolutely awesome programme but I've noticed it has more murders in one episode than Midsummer Murders has in one series
