This is a Polish drama about an a police officer using unconventional methods to track down a serial killer. I believe it is based on a best-selling book? I really enjoyed it although I had no idea what was going on really.
Wiktor Forst has been sent packing from the police in Krakow due to some misdemeanour and is back in the back of beyond, in the mountains, in his home town's local force, when a particularly gruesome serial killer goes on a killing spree. The victims are connected, but how?...
At every new location a caption appeared on screen to tell us how far above sea level it was. Perhaps because I'm only 19 metres above sea level, I didn't quite understand why I needed to know this or what difference it makes. In any event, It was quite high up.
At a couple of points I got James Bond vibes. In one episode they visit the mountain top hideaway/nightclub of an eye-patch wearing evil genuis (or something) which was very George Lazenby 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service'. Forst also sits in a shower with a love interest, which is rather Daniel Craig in 'Casino Royale'.
At other times Forst reminded me of 'Kev' from Ricky Gervais' show 'Derek', particularly when he was making luurve to his numerous lady friends (not all at once of course) in a caravan! Honestly I am quite concerned Forst will have a sexually transmitted disease because there didn't seem to be much of a gap between the ladies, some may even have been the same day.
Yes Forst is a bit of a ladies man. The whole time I was watching it I was thinking he reminded me of someone and I think I have concluded it is Roose Bolton from GoT or maybe Jason Isaac's. Anyway I wouldn't kick him out of bed, unless he took me back to his caravan.
I guessed who the killer was immediately on seeing them but it didn't detract from the enjoyment.
I thought Forst had some fab music in the soundtrack which really helped the atmosphere.
Overall great fun, I'm confused but I'd watch another series.
