The BBC have released the first picture of Primeval star Ben Miller in Death In Paradise, a new international co-production for BBC One and France Télévisions.
BBC Four’s imported French police drama Spiral reaches the halfway point of its third season this week, maintaining its ability to disturb and distress but never disappoint with its unstinting gore and unending bleakness.
As guiltily enthralling as your neighbours having a screaming row in their back garden, unaware that you’re peeking through a hole in the fence, BBC Four’s French police drama series Spiral is not exactly enjoyable; it’s hard to even define it as entertaining. Yet once you start watching, it’s increasingly difficult to stop.
Primeval star Ben Miller has been cast in Death In Paradise, a new international co-production for BBC One and France Télévisions.
The actual title of Spiral, BBC Four’s imported French police drama, is Engrenages, which literally translates as ‘cogs’ or ‘gears’ – and if your stomach can stand the gore and your heart can stand the shocks, watching the show will give your own cogs and gears as thorough a grinding as they’ve had since the climax of The Killing.
Danish crime drama The Killing and French police series Spiral will both return to BBC Four later this year, the channel has announced.
