Producer: Filmlance International

Genres: Drama


Season 7: 4 x 120’

Based on the characters of the wildly popular Martin Beck detective series of novels by Swedish husband and wife writers, Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, Beck sees the much-loved detective brought to life on the small screen.

Following the fortunes of the enigmatic and extremely methodical detective Martin Beck and his partner, the irascible, impulsive Gunvald Larsson, Beck is arguably the originator of what has become known as Scandinavian crime: the good-cop, bad-cop partnership which has formed the modern crime-fighting blueprint.

Starring Peter Haber (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) in the more reserved role, Mikael Persbrandt (The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug) as Larsson and Steinar Hovland (Game of Thrones).

Beck’s combination of complex woven details of police detection and beautifully realised characters combined with twisting, masterful storylines has ensured that the award-winning series has won fans and acclaim from around the world.
