(It's not all x-rated you know.) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23594 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 13:37:28 +0000 ruggtomcat 23594@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>yeah, get rid of the subtitles! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23583 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 12:26:54 +0000 DaveC 23583@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've had more problems with BBC4, Its all non English Language (with subtitles though) after 9pm. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23582 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 12:25:13 +0000 LaidBack 23582@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've had some problems too with BBC4 - is a weaker signal it seems.<br /> This current series is going to be available on iPlayer for months. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23580 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 12:13:08 +0000 Kim 23580@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Sadly I have had really problems with the signal for BBC4 :-( </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23579 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 11:59:40 +0000 LaidBack 23579@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Yes... all that <strong>Nordic noir</strong> is old news to readers of CityCycling.<br /> Lucyna Langlijne pre-dated Lisbeth Salander and the English translations of <em>Män som hatar kvinnor.</em> With Anth's help she may be available at all good browsers very soon. (Unless deleted for crimes against literature).</p> <p>The recent genre of Scandinavian-based fiction goes back at least to Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow <em>(Frøken Smillas fornemmelse for sne - from 1992)</em>. This was based upon the tensions between Greenlanders living in Denmark and Danes. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23562 Thu, 10 Feb 2011 10:48:01 +0000 Arellcat 23562@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I've heard that Professor Dawes and Lucyna Langlijne auditioned for this but were still under contract to some British thing. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=2226#post-23532 Wed, 09 Feb 2011 21:26:03 +0000 LaidBack 23532@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><strong>The mean streets of København are filled with political intrigue and first class cycling facilities.</strong><br /> New Danish drama 'The Killing' featuring Copenhagen Police Department detective Sarah Lund. Detailed slow burn drama that gives a flavour of life in the Danish capital.<br /> Local politicians fight over social housing, racial integration and providing new bike lanes (just joking).<br /> Contains adult themes but less murders than Ystad in Sweden.<br /> <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00xzy0f">Copenhagen Drama 'The Killing'</a> </p>
