Head Gardener



Silly title, crazy story - people from history, Vikings, stone-age folk etc are mysteriously re-appearing in our time and struggling to integrate into modern Norwegian society.
Just started it and it's a worthy an addition to the ridiculous growing list of TV worth watching right now, Narcos/Hunters/Curb/Outsider/Homeland yadda yadda - trailer

Thanks for bringing this to my attention as it's the kind of show I like and it seems none of my usual sources bothered to upload it when it aired last august. I've now found it on a streaming site and watched the first episode. It's not quite what I was expecting which was a 'strangers in a strange land adapting to the modern world' comedy drama type thing. It's more of a high concept crime thriller, think Norwegian Taggart but some of them are Vikings.
I'll probably bang through the rest in the next couple of days.

That's me tanned it. I had nowt better to do this evening and most of the mirrors had been deleted so I thought I'd better get it watched.
The murder mystery element is wrapped by the season finale and it introduces an underlying grand conspiracy plot as it unfolds which should take the next season in a different direction.
