In praise of - swedisH wallander.

If you're a fan of the detective novels of Henning Mankell, then you might know the books have been made for TV three time, twice in Swedish with the actors Rolf Lassgard and then Krister Henriksson in the title role, and once for the BBC starring Kenneth Branagh.

I always liked the Branagh version for its brooding intensity and the stark portrayal of Sweden's landscape (though the Swedies may feel differently). Then I saw the Henriksson version and realised what I'd been missing.
