Perhaps not the greatest timing

Mar 07, 2018 22:00

Just seen a trailer for a new Danish series on BBC4 this weekend, in English titles Below the Surface, and about people taken hostage on an underground train. With the trial of Peter Madsen* for the murder of Kim Wall on his submarine starting off tomorrow, I winced a bit. I can't help feeling that they might have done better to stick to the original title, which was more along the line of "Taken hostage"**

* He's guilty.

** Gidseltagningen, but I can't get the grammar quite right. The Hostage-Taking?
