Fairfax's television writers reveal the returning shows they are most looking forward to this year.
Broadchurch
Perhaps the best British drama in years, Broadchurch finished this year with a solemn promise: an on-screen graphic which said simply "Broadchurch will return". Now, that's what we call a promise. David Tennant and Olivia Colman were brilliant, particularly Colman who deserves nothing but unequivocal praise. Tennant is, of course, off to star in the US remake, Gracepoint, which is weird, but Broadchurch's own second outing could not come fast enough.

Cant wait. I hope it is as good as the first one.

this one looks good too:
Borgen
Easily the best political drama since The West Wing and better than, I'm sorry, even House of Cards, which could have kept the edge were it not a remake of an older, more subtle and deeply complex British series. Sidse Babett Knudsen absolutely electrifies the screen and the series delivers astonishingly good writing. Perhaps the most fascinating thing about it is the manner in which it smashes through language barriers. Bugger that it's in Danish with English subtitles, it's the best show on TV.

I love those Danish and Swedish crime shows, and I don't mind the subtitles. That way I don't have to ask OH all the time "what did he say" "what did he say"? lol. He gets the irrits.
I loved "The Killing" series too, the Danish version. I wonder what Lund is doing now? She took off in a plane for parts unknown after shooting the peter file that she couldn't bring to justice any other way. It would have been the end of her career.
OMG I'm starting to sound like that 0 Id with all the movies, the one that dumped us for her new facebook friends.
