C More, TV4 book eighth trip to Sandhamn

Sandhamn i Morden (The Sandhamn Murders) premiered on C More

Nordic streamer C More and Sweden’s TV4, both owned by Bonnier Broadcasting, have renewed crime drama Sandhamn i Morden (The Sandhamn Murders) for an eighth season.

The Nordic noir drama, based on author Vivica Stern’s book series and set on the titular Stockholm archipelago, drew 770,000 viewers to TV4 for the start of season seven last night, following its premiere on C More earlier this month.

Filming is already underway on the eighth season, which will be filmed in three blocks until October 2021. An air date is yet to be confirmed.

The series sees leading actor Alexandra Rapaport, who plays lawyer Nora Linde, joined by Nicolai Cleve Broch, who will play Nora’s new opponent, the temperamental and charming policeman Alexander.

Filmlance International, part of Endemol Shine Nordics, produces the show, which first aired in 2010. It is distributed by Endemol Shine International.
