Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBased on the popular BBC Radio 4 dramas "Annika Stranded" (her surname is in program notes as "Strandhed") which also starred Nicola Walker, but is set in Norway. The radio series ran 2013-2020 and the episodes are 15 minute monologues. These have sound effects but only Annika speaks, either addressing other characters or confiding to the listener. Similarly, in the TV series Annika talks to the viewers through the 'fourth wall'. Writer Nick Walker reuses/modifies some of the plots. In the radio series Annika has a son Tor whose father is an officer in 'the Reindeer Police'.

Featured review
Amusing
I don't know why there are so many bad reviews. Sure, it's not Unforgotten, but why remake something that was that good? This was different and amusing. I don't mind that she talks to the camera - I found it funny. It was as though I was listening to her thoughts, and could hear the things she's like to say but didn't because it would be impolitic. Nicola Walker is fantastic, as always, and I'll definitely watch the next episode.
Sometimes you don't need Big, Serious Drama. Sometimes you just need some police work with a large side of family dynamics and humour.
