The Tunnel (serial)

Season 1

The setup for this BBC series is a dead body found exactly on the border between France and England in the Chunnel. So detectives from both jurisdictions show up. When it is decided that the crime should be investigated by the French since the victim is a French dignitary, all agree and the body is moved... only to find it is two halves (and hence two separate bodies). So the French and English detectives work together. With no love lost across the channel, and a great character in the French detective, this crime drama is fabulous. I would guess that the French/English viewers look at it like LA viewers see Bosch.
5 stars (out of 5)
